swaterfall Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 When I was descending from Muir last Sunday I ran into my friend taking his fiance up to Camp Muir at 2:00pm. I wonder how long that one's gonna last?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robc Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Well, most of us boys wish there were more girlclimbers, so former girlclimbers don't help the odds but, you know, you can't always have your cake and eat it too. A lot of the time we just have to take whoever's available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walking barefoot when you can't see where you're stepping is not always a wise idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
