b-rock Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Well shit, doc says no more running, I have advanced osteoarthritis, and I'm not even 30. Phuk. So I'll be climbing again, lots. Stay tuned Quote
tomtom Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Goose Egg Mtn Sat. Tieton/The Bend Sunday. Damn it was windy. Quote
willstrickland Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Nothin' but fly fishing. I am not a climber anymore, closest I get to climbing these days is ascending the two flights to my apt. Quote
dkemp Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Got within a few hundred feet of Chiwawa's summit via Chiwawa River approach - snowing sideways, made it hard to find the route. Didnt summit. There's been lots of times that I didnt summit - dont know why it bothers me this time. I guess I thought it would give it up to us Quote
Winter Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Hiked up to Lk. Vivienne on Sat. Went to bed. Woke up on Sun. morning with 30 mph+ winds, blowing snow, 30 deg. temps. Walked back down to TH. Drank beer. Rode home in back seat. Went to bed. You guys should have gone up the W. Ridge anyway. Weather was a little cold, but would have been a fun "adventure" climb. I know. Been up it already and wasn't really motivated to suffer in high winds for 4 pitches I've already done. You're right though. I was ready to give the S. Face a try in sketchy conditions but was convinced by partners I was being a jack ass. Quote
bunglehead Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 I went mountain biking yesterday. Well, there was a lot of hiking involved due to mud. The trail got a piece of me in a turn. Very muddy. A ride that usually takes 3 hr took 4&1/2. Oh, and another dog tried to attack my dog. Quote
thelawgoddess Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 i hope your dog taught the other dog a lesson! grr!!! Quote
Peter_Puget Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 I actually went climbing for a change: Tried American Caesar. Then I tried it in TR. It’s moderate flared hands/fists to a bulge where the crack narrows considerable only to open up a bit above the bulge. Today at work everyone has asked: "What happened to your hand?" Quote
bunglehead Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 i hope your dog taught the other dog a lesson! grr!!! No, but I did. I picked his mangy ass up by his scruff and threw him 4 feet into the woods. That shut him up. Quote
Gary_Yngve Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Scrambled Cashmere. Our car suffered a severe pulmonary embolism on the drive out there and a lesser one on the way back. Camped at Little Caroline Lake, five of us in a Megamid. Snowed/sleeted until about 11:00 AM, but then cleared up. Went up the north side of Cashmere (crampons would have been nice) and descended the west ridge. Quote
cj001f Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Bike ride + beach on Saturday. Worked on Sunday + bought new Greenough fin for board and Sprout Quote
John Frieh Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Smith Free parking and no crowds all weekend!?!?!!! Ran into 4 cc.comers (2 of them are lurkers... you know who you are! ) and 2 old NOLS/REI buddies Quote
Phil K Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 'Bailed on plans for Chimney Rock. Hiked up Carne Mtn. on Sunday for some fresh air & exercise. I'm ready for some nicer weekends someday. Quote
Chaps Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Whatever. You guys are all fluff and no climbing. Minnesota hardpeople rule, and you are all fools. Quote
minx Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 shut up chaps. you've got your teeny tiny minnessoda self a big case of mountain envy. size does matter! Quote
Chaps Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Now that is just plain mean, minx. Have you ever seen our Blue Mounds? Quote
minx Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Now that is just plain mean, minx. Have you ever seen our Blue Mounds? oh puhhhlleeezzee...the blue mounds jokes/innuendos are just too easy. all though i'm pretty sure being from the frozen minnesoda you'd be familiar w/blue things. move along now... Quote
Dru Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 blue mounds might not be work safe, if you consider co-workers ridiculing you to be unsafe. Quote
Chaps Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Fine, come on out to Barn Bluff, and I'll show you a thing or two. Quote
minx Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Fine, come on out to Barn Bluff, and I'll show you a thing or two. oh shit i can't even make myself make the obvious goat joke. Quote
Dustin_B Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 ... and you are all fools. again with the 'nice' slamming. try throwing the 'f' bomb in there every once and a while. Or if you're not ready for the f'bomb yet, how about "you are all ass holes" Quote
Dustin_B Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 oops but back on topic (and so I don't seem like a total sprayer ), I just did some non-climbing gear related activities this weekend: sharpened crampons, ice axes, etc. waterproofed boots, gear shopping, etc. Now I'm ready for something.... Quote
Kitergal Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 why is chaps still here?? I thought he didn't like us?? Hmmm....IMPOSTER!! Quote
