cj001f Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 The lengths some women will go to to keep guys from looking at their ass...... But it looks like she's bringing the kitchen with her
archenemy Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 John, I'm being serious here. If you ever catch a Mounties party larger than 6 in NCNP (or two Mounties parties camped together), please report it to the Mounties at once. could you please post the 1-800-mounties hotline to report violations?
John Frieh Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 John, I'm being serious here. If you ever catch a Mounties party larger than 6 in NCNP (or two Mounties parties camped together), please report it to the Mounties at once. In the past there had been errors in the database (or no database) that allowed for situations for different branches to bump into each other on a climb, but I think those have been fixed. If leaders are not checking the schedule for conflicts, then they will be censured. By reporting any violations you see to the Mounties, you will help ensure that you will never see more than 6 Mounties at once in NCNP. The Mounties intend to follow the rules just like everyone else. WA pass is a prime example.
olyclimber Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 massive tilt...they're just crawling on their hands and knees
Gary_Yngve Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 John, what routes? The Basic Mounties only climb S Arete SEWS, WR Cutthroat, and the easy route on Kang Temple. All the other climbs are Intermediate. I didn't think WaPass was in NCNP?
olyclimber Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 those trees grow at wierd angles up there, don't they?
olyclimber Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 i hear river flowing, deep and wide, deep and wide
John Frieh Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 S Arete SEWS How many times have I heard people piss and whine and tell me I'm going to die because I am downclimbing the same route in tennie shoes that they are taped up with a double set of cams about to lead? And then I get the the 3rd degree at the base for only having a first aid kit and water with me.
chucK Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 I soloed by a bunch of Mounties on Sherpa Peak one time and all I got was compliments and adoring looks. You just must look sketchy.
Gary_Yngve Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 When I climbed the East Buttress Direct of SEWS as a Mounties Intermediate climb (with only small buttpacks), we downclimbed the S Arete past a Mountie party going up. We did not get harrassesd.
skykilo Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 HOLY SHIT man I took my dad up that route for his first-ever climb in the mountains last summer. We got stuck right behind this mounties party. Seriously, I'm no footwork expert, but those guys really could have used some slab technique pointers. Best wishes to the guy recovering from Yellowjacket Tower though!
minx Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 S Arete SEWS How many times have I heard people piss and whine and tell me I'm going to die because I am downclimbing the same route in tennie shoes that they are taped up with a double set of cams about to lead? And then I get the the 3rd degree at the base for only having a first aid kit and water with me. that number is directly proportional to the number of neutrinos a person has left on girth pillar divided by the number of windshirts they own multiplied by the number of posts in spray. Gary will do the calculation for you if you need him to.
olyclimber Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 I can't believe we got past that! So, what are you doing this weekend?
DirtyHarry Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 I unicycled down past some Mounties on the S arete on SEWS wearing a clown suit and a tiere, and they gave me some WEIRD looks. Fuckers.

Gary will do the calculation for you if you need him to. That's another one! Hiking into GP two summer's ago we passed a group that had done the west ridge over 3 days... we talked conditions and they asked what we planned to climb... we said GP and the dudes looked me right in the eye and said "that's a death route!" and walked off with another word
olyclimber Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 you should have been more impressed that they knew what GP was...GEEZ!
