Squid Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 It depends if you want me to clean it out first- it's been awhile. Quote
minx Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 y'all are wankers. this route was soloed eons ago. it goes at II 5.4+****. alpinfox and olywanker just wanted chest beat and post pictures of themselves in those super neato windshirts. car to car in 4 hours losers Quote
slothrop Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 I'll take the RURP and KBs... don't need the webbing, though, since I'm sponsored by 9/16" Webbing'teryx. Â Just curious, how many falls has the RURP held? I don't want any sketchy gear. Quote
olyclimber Posted August 17, 2005 Author Posted August 17, 2005 minx...before you open your yapper, you should think. you're just making yourself look bad when you join the peanut gallery posers. we are legit and blowen up in the 05! This route sets a new standard in alpinism, so get used to the new boss in town. Don't hate, appreciate. Quote
Dru Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 If you want to spray, do it in spray, but keep this TR thread for positive comments only. Quote
slothrop Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Hey Oly! I heard about your proud send. Great job, man. Â Do you climb much around Washington? If you need a partner sometime, let me know. I'll totally carry your nutsack for you. Â Good luck in your future endeavors! Quote
olyclimber Posted August 17, 2005 Author Posted August 17, 2005 If you think you can carry that kind of wieght... Quote

Â hey oly--you know when you point a finger at someone, there's 3 pointing back at you. you don't have to inflate your accomplishment for us to think you're an OK climber. you just have to climbing once in a while.

EWolfe Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 You guys crack me up  How's the finger, Pax? Quote
Stefan Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 thanks for sharing! I repeated the route this morning before work. Quote
Alpinfox Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Â How's the finger, Pax? Â I'd say it's somewhere between "Fred Said 'No'" and "Airborne Ranger". Translation: It's healin' up, but I ain't sendin' anything cool for a while. Â Quote
EWolfe Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 So, how's the powerwalking and aerobic ball working out for you? Quote
olyclimber Posted August 18, 2005 Author Posted August 18, 2005 This weekend he's got a special task ahead of him that's sure to get him back to health ASAP so we can get back to sending the hard shit and making you all look bad. Quote
ashw_justin Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 sweet dudes, right on. but I know you didn't just forget to mention your wicked snowboard descent! Â Quote
olyclimber Posted August 23, 2005 Author Posted August 23, 2005 topo for the first pitches. then I crunked, so Alpinfox will have to fill in the rest. Â Quote
cook Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Finally got the second ascent of this gem via a major variation. I call the variation,"Oly Licked my girlfriend's shirt while she was in it" Here are the photos.  Here Gyselinck and I enjoy the approach, aided by a dinosaur of course.  During the second half of the approach, we encountered this climber ready to fight and trying to beat us to the second ascent.  Here I am approaching the true false summit, which happened to be an active volcano.  The approach now over, we get our first look at the mountain  The climb was interesting, but a little boring. About 102 pitches of mostly 5.10+ climbing on volcanic scree.  Here is the Lyger riding the true summit  Here I am on the summit enjoying a well deserved beer  The descent was uneventful and took 14 days. This is what awaited us at the trailhead after the climb. Quote
olyclimber Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 Isn't that middle part cool? The rock has really neat features, and though it seems sketchy, whenever you need a hold, you just look for it and it magically appears. Quote
cook Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 The middle was my favorite also. We took the variation at the spot where you guys went left. We went right instead, avoiding the part that looked improbable. We joined your route again past the upper middle part. Quote
cook Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Oh. And we pitched the hooker and bag of blow you left up there into the summit lava dome. Quote
catbirdseat Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 You'll need to swap your velcro mitts for ones made of asbestos. Quote
olyclimber Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 She's a randy one, isn't she. Did you happen to find a biner I left to "mark my territory"? Quote
