Dane Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Hopefully a good place to add and collect info for INW folks in the future. Currently a work in progress. http://www.standingwave.org/rock/phpBB2/index.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 There is no such thing as the "Inland Northwest". There is only the "Near East" (Leavenworth, Skaha etc) and the "Far East" (Rockies) and then "Siberia" (anything east of the Rockies, eg. Calgary, Chicago, Florida) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCash Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Dru, this area has been called the Inland Northwest for ages. Nice troll though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted July 14, 2004 Author Share Posted July 14, 2004 Cool, the INW isn't a place, so there is no need for another climber to show up. Westside pogie bait... Anyone living in the INW knows it is a place because they always have to drive somewhere else to do any really good climbing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 if it's inland then it is east of good climbing, except maybe the bugaboos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southernmtguide Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Hey Dane, why the new site? This seems to do a pretty good job of keeping the pulse of the Inland Northwest, or does it? Just wondering in Spokane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 Lot of noise to wade through here CCC at times. I thought it could easily be done better. So obviously I don't agree that CCC was doing a good job for the INW specifically. That is not CCCs fault. I see a place for both to the benefit of all involved. The Spokane area has enough going on that I thought it would be nice for all of us to be better informed on the activities at the local areas. I was active in the area for awhile, will be again and still have family and property there. So I stop in on occasion. If nothing else it will help me and a few others I climbed with (and in similar situations) easily keep up on the what is happening. The Internet allows easy access to a lot of info. Bringing all of the INW info and players together in one spot a good start. The recent issues at Dishman and the options available to resolve them are a good examples as to why the exchange of current info is a good idea. Having co-authored the original guide to Minne and helped on a section of "Idaho Rock", INWR.com also gives me a place to document some of the info and historical trivia I have collected overtime on what was been done and by who.

southernmtguide Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Makes sense to me now. I will keep my eyes on it! I just hate to have to go to two different sites while I am supposed to be working! Keep it up, as I love the older pictures. I was primarily interested in finding out how much work it takes to get soemthing like it up and running. I have been toying with the idea of trying to get one up, as I have a bunch of stuff from South American climbing areas I dont know what else to do with.

Dane Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 With so many in the Spokane area that have climbed elsewhere it would seem a logical conclusion to add that to INWR. Give me a call and I'll hook it up if you are interested in being the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
