selkirk Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Ok, who got some this weekend? Any freshiez? Smith was cool and reasonably dry on Sat. and warm and dry on Sunday, can't ask for anything better! Lets here the epics and good routes. Quote
skyclimb Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 SMITH 's Heresy, Lion's Jaw, Nine Gallon Buckets, swan song-northern point, handyman, bouldering, filming, simul-soloing round-river 3 times. Simul-soloed double take to get up the northern point. Another awesome weekend Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Killer day at the mudpile on Sunday! Those are the days you wait all summer for: crisp morning, warm sun, cool shade, huge mobs of people everywh ... OK, scratch the last part, but the rest was great. Â Quote
RuMR Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Â at least tell me it rained on saturday... Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Word on the street is that it did, but only a little bit. DFA Posse was col' chillin' back in PDX at that juncture, for fear of a repeat of the previous weekend's downpourings. Word. Quote
skyclimb Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 sorry to say, but saturday FAWKING ROCKED good friction out there...winter is coming Quote
selkirk Posted October 25, 2004 Author Posted October 25, 2004 Only for 30min of light showers, was a little chilly though . Only enough to slow us down a little! Were you helping out with the Caldwell filming on Saturday(I think) Skyclimb. We saw the rig over on Picnic Wall and heard he and Beth Rodder were signing books at Redpoint. Lions Jaw is a suite route! mmmm, thin stemming is fun! Quote
sobo Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Tieton on Saturday  Royal Columns for Western Front and did laps on X-factor, then to The Bend for Ed's Jam! Nice day, beautiful weather, good freinds. Quote
fredrogers Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Â at least tell me it rained on saturday... Â Only a little. Â We had an awesome 3 days at Smith. No one on the front side on Thursday and we had the whole West side to ourselves Friday. After watching Sharma take a huge whipper on the new 14a on Picnic Lunch wall (called the Big R I'm told) we went out to Adit and Koala rocks on Saturday and only saw one other party. Packed it in around 4 and drove over Hood in the first freshies of the season, narrowly avoiding a huge clusterfuck of stalled autos and semis. Quote
AllYouCanEat Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Hey Rumr, I went rock climbing and I just wanted to let you know, "It f'kin' sucked balz!" I can't wait until it snows and buries all of the rock. Quote
selkirk Posted October 25, 2004 Author Posted October 25, 2004 lol, not in our life time.... Â Global Warming is good for rock climbing Quote
kurthicks Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 went to Frenchman Coulee w/Jake_Gano, Natasha_Caldwell and Scott (no avatar). did lots of good climbs - Satan's Wagon, Ride 'em Cowboy, Crossing the Threshold, Party in your Pants, Pony Keg, blah blah. good climbing and good weather out there, i got sunburned. Quote
AllYouCanEat Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 You never know. I watched "The day after tomorrow" and I know that they have their facts straight. 7 days and the world could be a frozen chunk of ice! And the instant freeze was soo realistic not to mention the thrilling conclusion that shows the survivors hiking out onto the ice. Wow! Quote
genepires Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 On sunday, got some craggin in at leavenworth after a very cold start to a kinda cold finish. There is snow half way up the valley. no sun to warm the rocks. Quote

ryland_moore Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Anyone head to Bend Saturday night for the beer, food, and awesome dealz Moon fundraiser? There was tons of gear donated by Metolius and the like. Plus other cool auctions like getting a Porche for the day, trips, etc. Cool prizes, fun times all for a great cause. There was a guy who was bidding against a friend of ours for a 70m rope. He outbid our friend and turned around a gave him the rope, because he just wanted to give money to Ben Moon's fund and didn't care about the rope Pretty cool! Quote
scot'teryx Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 Got some freshiez from muir down to the top of Pan point on Monday. After that it was all ice and not fun. 9K to 7,500 were some good turns. Quote
Toast Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 Stefan, Klenke, Vegetablebelay and a few other all stars made it out to the Chelan Sawtooths this weekend. I only managed to tag Gray and Oval, but Stefan and Greg were super-he-men and tagged Courtney and Buttermilk Saturday night before coming back to camp. There was a foot and a half of freshies and blue skies both days (cold and nasty Saturday night, though.) Â We even managed to stop by Twisp to say hi to Uncle Tricky Quote
Wallstein Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 Skied around lake tahoe. Good conditions. More snow on the way. Quote
