ken4ord Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 So what's the deal? Yeah reports are going up but lately it seems more sort of hikes than climbing. Where is all the climbing TR's? Not the "I went cragging on well established single pitch routes" or "It was a beautiful hike" reports, but I want the "Jeezus I thought we were gonna die" or the "that was the hardest shite I have gotten on" type reports. Come on where is the stoke? Quote
Blake Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 high snow year ken... don't bag on people getting out, even if it's not the layton-esque gonzo style TRs. I'm sure lots of cc.comers have ambitious summer plans. Quote

I'm sure lots of cc.comers have ambitious summer plans. Â Yeah I know I know, I am just impatient. I know people are getting out on shit. They just don't seem to be putting up the purty pictures for us oogle over. Blake I do appreciate all the pictures you have put up, awesome . I can't wait to get to Mordor sometime. Quote
olyclimber Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 Ken! Lets plan an epicing this summer on Midway. Quote
ken4ord Posted June 7, 2006 Author Posted June 7, 2006 Oh I don't know, that step across really scares the shit out of me. Maybe after lots of training and siking myself up for it I would give it a go? That is a big maybe. Quote

I'm sure lots of cc.comers have ambitious summer plans. Â Suprisingly though, lots of alpine rock looks pretty cleaned off anf climbable right now. I'm sure on northfaces and nooks and crannies and shit there's wetness and some snow, but south faces would be good and WA Pass is probably good to go right now. Quote
G-spotter Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 Gimme a couple of days here guys, I have to put new cover sheets on all my TPS reports before I can go in the mountains Quote
AlpineK Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 We climbed Clean Breaks last week. There was some snow on ledges up high, but otherwise it was good. Â My camera was broke and I'm lazy so no TR for Ken. Quote
olyclimber Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 I have some pictures of the scabs on my hands right now, but they're at home. Quote
tanstaafl Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 Plus we got drunk (or was it just me?) and I taunted Kurt about his mom. It was extreme, bro. Actually the most extreme thing was how extremely bad my car smelled for a full week after that trip. ew. Quote

Come on where is the stoke? Â I'd have TRs but every time I try to go climbing there's aggro monkeys at the top of the crag throwing rocks down on me. Ouch! Quote
DirtyHarry Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 I climbed out from under your mom this morning. Quote
cj001f Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 I climbed out from under your mom this morning. How was the cemetary excavation project? Quote

layton Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 i've TRIED a lot. does that count. Also, stupid gas prices and portland location won't allow me to say fuck it to the weather forecasts of 100% (like l-worth last sunday) and go anyways. Of course i'm sure the weather's been fine regardless of the forecast. Â I think it only rains in the 20-40% zone. Quote
111 Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 (edited) Just ask skyclimb about his adventure with corvallisclimb. sorry to steal your glory guys, but I gotta post your picture of the rope. This is what they found at the top of a jug line left for 2 years in the mountains. Thats definitely an "I almost died" moment. Edited June 8, 2006 by 111 Quote

ken4ord Posted June 8, 2006 Author Posted June 8, 2006 Yeah AK and tansnaffle, you both are the slackers I am talking about. Sounds like good trip drinking, smelly pants (ts sort of curious what you were doing smelling AK's pants I guess that is another TR in itself), stories about mom, and some climbing thrown into the mix. Sounds like times I miss from the PNW. Quote
