Dru Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 American Colin Haley climbed Aguja Guillamet with a pair of Argentineans and then, with Mark Westman, ticked Mermoz, Fitz Roy, St. Exupery and Rafael in a 12-day span. At only 21, Haley now has climbed all of the main summits of the Fitz Roy group in two Patagonian visits. From Climbing.com Quote
DirtyHarry Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Wow. Colin is legal to drink cheap wine now. Crazy. Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Awww, cute. It's like Chris Sharma with crampons! Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Don't suppose we'll see your Junior Alpine Hero firing Realization or Witness the Fitness any time soon, hmm? Mountains, schmountains. Quote
DirtyHarry Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Don't suppose we'll see your Junior Alpine Hero firing Realization or Witness the Fitness any time soon, hmm? Or you for that matter, old man. Quote
Gary_Yngve Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Nice! Good to hear that your delayed luggage didn't impinge on your plans. Quote
Dechristo Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I'm still pissed at the bastard for purloining my slings. :tups: Colin, speed on. Quote
selkirk Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Don't suppose we'll see your Junior Alpine Hero firing Realization or Witness the Fitness any time soon, hmm? Mountains, schmountains. which are of course way more impressive in their combined 200 ft than say any of the summits in the Fitz Roy group. Quote

Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Neither, sadly, can you make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Quote
DirtyHarry Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I have seen a chalkbag made out of a sheep's nutsack, though. Swear to God. Quote
EWolfe Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Congrats, Colin. Quite an accomplishment. Rock on with your Bad Self! Quote
Squid Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 That's pretty good, Colin. I mean, it's no V11, but it's pretty good. Quote
olyclimber Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 I would be mad that there were people spraying in Colin's thread, you don't see to many other people from this climbing board going down there and crushing the alpine like he has. But then, maybe Colin would think some of these comments are funny himself. Quote
Marko Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Colin doesn't have a thread, he has a life. (I still say he's a fucking slacker!) -M Quote
olyclimber Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 true. and if he did, it would not be just one, it would be a whole stack of them. Quote
tomtom Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Next thing you know he'll be giving lectures at the Mountaineers. Quote
