scot'teryx Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Since we were down at Ida Creek this weekend, I was not able to hook up with anyone, but curious as to where everyone climbed? We hit the Pearly Gates on Saturday am/pm, and then Clamshell Cave after that (saw ToTheTop and Jon there) Sunday we went to Fish Wall and then to Little Bridge Creek Rock. Good times, good weather. Did jERRY sAncHEZ get kicked by the fire by anyone? Was there a midnight climb?

To_The_Top Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Yes there were more Scot'teryx sightings than cougar sightings in the "Valley" of Washington. No JERRY bag kicking contests this year, and the keg flowed too freely (thanks to TG and the couriers) for a midnight climb, even with a almost full moon out.

Cpt.Caveman Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 I climbed on top of the keg and built a cairn with empty beer bottles. First ascent of Kaveman Keg [ 10-21-2002, 11:46 AM: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PG's does rock for sure! Milky Way was my favorite of all, that start is damn stout in my book! That rock is so clean and awesome! It appears there have been more routes established since the most recent topo that LMS and DS have been circulating. Anyone know what that project is rated or called that has anchors just left of Milky Way of you are facing the wall? All the topo says is "project" and it appears to be done. Can't wait to go back....... Should have spent the whole day there........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Puget Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Dru - It's not a 12+ OW. The OW is not really climbed as an OW anyway. FYI - the anchor at the bottom of the crux pitch on Piplein is bolts and chain. PP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_warfield Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Some wannabees named Yoder and Tim Wilson and at least one other person too. I always wondered why Croft and Skinner never got on it when they were prowling around 11worth. Oh and Herr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably after. i heard he had a dozen different sets of feet and he would choose a foot size to fit the crack..."the mechanical boy".

Come to think of it, I have seen him on video doing some hard stemming. No calf burn there. And he can't easily twist and contort his feet in hand cracks or off width.

texplorer Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Jens and I TR'ed Supercrack on Sat. It was a bit dirty but really fun. The bottom is really cool with some surpisingly good jams. I would recommend getting your abs and biceps in shape for that. I fell out at the OW but Jens tried several different techniques. He finally worked all the moves with some impressive lie-backing through the OW. He even conjected that maybe you lead with your right foot or something to be able to get some stacks. Dru, Matt, Peter, do any of you know how those guys did that thing? [ 10-21-2002, 08:57 PM: Message edited by: texplorer ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt_warfield Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Supercrack has actually had several ascents since the first, apparently unbeknownst to Smoot at the time of his guidebook publishing. However, none at night, I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miker Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Actually I limited myself to 31 oz of Guinness due to the extreme physical chores. But for the 32nd I am thinking of a more debauched challenge. x32 x32 lapdance x 32 Miker "Soar, eat ether, see what has never been seen: depart, be lost, But climb."

David_Parker Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Why would I want to tell Scott-no-show where I climbed. If he wants to know, he should have showed up at the rope-up. Afterall, he WAS in the area! What's up with that....was it too smoky for him? Yahoo, my first PAGE TOP! How appropriate!
