chucK Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 OK? Lots of plans last week. Lots of perfect climbing weather occured simultaneously with most people having two days off of work. What did you do? Quote
AlpineK Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I checked out Zekes wall and then went bouldering. Quote
sk Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I am not realy a climber, I haven't climbed in 7 days Quote
Sphinx Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I'm going to go troll Dwayner. Does that count? Quote

Sphinx Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I'm a master! It's the only thing I'm good at! Quote
Distel32 Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 went bouldering with Bird and Norsky. Norsky sent, Bird almost sent, I flailed hardcore...... Quote
Off_White Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 Saturday was spent working in Portland, but we did squeeze in a first visit to Broughton Bluff in the afternoon. It was an interesting encounter with boot polished holds covered in a fine layer of dust. What I found particularly interesting was gawking along the base, trying to match up the confusing array of cracks, roofs, and such in the columnar basalt with the hand drawn guidebook, and none of the 6 parties I spoke with could tell me what route they were on, and most had no clue of the rating. Fun though. What's the best time of year for this crag? Sunday and Monday were spent at the Puyallup Fair providing parental support while my daughter was showing her goats. Quote
Dru Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 i went to a wedding, got drunk, climbed two routes on top rope the next day, went fowr a hike in the woods, and found two unclimbed crack lines which may provide a winters scrubbing fun if i can find someone who wants to help out with tree slaughter.

Ursa_Eagle Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 Boulder-Everett-Appleton Traverse in the Olympics with much beer consumption and hot spring soaking before and after... Quote
bunglehead Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I climbed into and then out of this last weekend. That count? Quote
dryad Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 Went cragging in 11worth and dirtied up my gear some more. Good times. Quote
Alpinfox Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 Who fondled your rack this time? I was sea kayaking in Johnstone Strait on the NE coast of Vancouver Island. Good times.... Good times... Saw Orcas (far away) and thought about climbing. Quote

carolyn Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I got some more trad leads in (its been since beginning-mid summer since Ive had the opportunity). They were great leads, in the sense that I didnt worry so much about my climbing...I was much more confident, less mind games. Even onisghted a lead/climb (big mental challenge for me)! Turned a silly 40- 50 ft climb into a multipitch to practice for my trip out to Wa/Or next month. Learned a lot about communicating with your partner in regards to racking gear and such. Climbed the next day and got spanked on some harder stuff (ya! more climbs to work on! ). Bbq'd drank beer Watched the band, Built to Spill, put on a great show! Quote
IceIceBaby Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 Washington pass south-west rib on South early winter spire and the next day it started raining so we didn’t want to chance it and drove to 11worth originally wanted to do the west face of Jell-o-tower but it was so jam-packed that we went and did Spaghetti sauce all XY and wanted to do Classic crack again but a whole school of kids on field trip turned us back Quote
Dustin_B Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 Beckey route on Liberty Bell on Saturday. I really suck at climbing by the way. Sunday it started raining in the morning and we were tired so we went home. Stopped at the bunny restaurant in Marblemount for breakfast (highly recommended ), where I got mildly molested by some short older scary women because I was wearing some furry fleece. Quote
glacierdog Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 Does anyone know what happened to the summit log on liberty bell? Quote
erik Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 i refuse to talk about anything i ever climb again, as apprently it is purely ego driven. tho as usual i had fun. Quote
