It will never bail on you.

 

It will never be digging around for another Snickers while you're fiddling around at the crux.

 

[layton]

can i borrow it from you?

[mec]

how well do those things actually work? $225 is expensive!!!!!!

[Kevin_Matlock]

Just as good (good enough), only cheaper...

If you are worried about it not catching, throw in the occasional knot on the slack side. It's what I use with no complaints.

thanks for the heads up. i'll just cut and paste to a pm.

 

my schedule runs like this. mondays after 1:20pm open for index or little si, wednesdays after 1:20pm at little si, and saturdays aiding/trad. at index and if i'm not doing that i'll be at little si. that's my routine every week as long as i have enough gas. i'm also free some fridays and sundays if absolutely necessary.

I got a bite!

I am looking to get out this Wed., with a Tues. night trailhead bivi. Work could interfere, but I will know by Mon. Something at Cascade Pass would be preferred, with strong preference to N. Face of Buckner or E. Ridge of J'Berg in a day via CJ Col then out via Doug's Direct. PM me if interested.

 

Thanks,

 

John Sharp

I am living in Portland for the summer and I am also looking for a partner or two to go up mountains until august. I am experienced with glacier travel and crevasse rescue and I have done a fair share of 14ers in Colorado- I am up to do mt. hood or adams this weekend if you want to come.

[layton]

no thanks! i'm in bellingham and have a moratorium on glaciated peak slogs. look at that guy who's a NOLS alum (just posted for a partner) i bet he'd be perfect.

[Cobra_Commander]

Isn't there some written test to climb with NOLS alums?

[plark42]

I AM the NOLS alum who just posted earlier... I totally want to do a glaciated route but I've found that it's hard to find that kind of partner(s) who are experienced and confident. I am super down though.

 

Saying I'm a NOLS alum just lets people know what level of technical climbing experience I have- (mostly glaciers and snow/ice)... Of course there is no written test (LOL) but I am willing to teach those who are willing to learn.

[layton]

you should solo the hogsback (but pm yourself to make sure). just joking. anyway, those routes aren't my bag, but i know they are plent o' folks interested. have fun!

[plark42]

What type of routes do you enjoy? I would be game to do whatever (I would prefer to do something involving ropes and glaciers anyways)... I am open to suggestion!

[layton]

lets climb when i'm back in oregon this fall...i'm good for now.

[plark42]

Aight- I'll be gone by then but it's cool

[slamole]

Looking to climb glaciers till the season's over. Shuksan, Baker, Challenger, etc. Let me know if you're interested.

[Divot]

OkOk, we will climb the mounatins together forever my friend, we will.
