catbirdseat Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 A "lower case" tr. Hey, you got out, which is more than a lot can say. My TR would be a lower case one too if I chose to write one. Quote
motomagik Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 No worries, This about sums up what I heard from most people who went to Smith this weekend, although I heard Sunday was nice... Quote
archenemy Posted April 9, 2007 Author Posted April 9, 2007 I was tempted to put the crying graemlin in the [], but that was just a wee bit too self-pitying. just a wee. Quote
counterfeitfake Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 Man, that is a long-ass drive to get rained out. Bummer. Quote
Knottygirl Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 Ahh rolled in Sat. morning. Started to climb sky ridge for a "first time on the rock for the season warmup", started down pouring came down. Found the only two dry climbs to run laps on for the rest of the afternoon, Wartly's Revenge and Heresy (I think that's the name). That eve it cleared up and wasn't even cold. Sunday climbed hard in the sunshine, received sunburn Quote
TrogdortheBurninator Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 My Saturday involved about a dozen of these. It was good. Quote
miladugga Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 Admittedly I'm just getting started on trad climbs, but I'd be happy just to get up a 10c far enough to fall off. Bummer about the weather, though. Quote
counterfeitfake Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 Next time bring your aid gear. Send 9 gallon buckets in the rain with hooks. Quote
archenemy Posted April 9, 2007 Author Posted April 9, 2007 I aid in the rain back home at Index. It loses some of its luster after a while. What's that? A little tear? Yes, I am whining. Quote
fenderfour Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 We got out of Index before it started raining on Saturday. It's spring dammit. No more rain on the weekends. Have some pity on us working stiffs. Quote
counterfeitfake Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 In the rain, no one can see your tear. Quote
billcoe Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 My Saturday involved about a dozen of these. It was good. Cool! Uhhh, what time we eatin tonight Torg? Quote
MCash Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 No rain in Leavenworth all weekend. It was sunny for much of Saturday and Sunday. Quote
archenemy Posted April 9, 2007 Author Posted April 9, 2007 My Saturday involved about a dozen of these. It was good. Cool! Uhhh, what time we eatin tonight Torg? No kidding! I'll bring the wine. And my fly tying setup so you can tell me what you caught that on and I'll whip up a few right then and there. That pic makes me ache. Quote
TrogdortheBurninator Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 I thought you'd appreciate that one arch. My wife and I took a guided float trip on the yakima. That fish was taken on around a 14 chernobyl ant with a green body. My wife actually had the biggest fish of the day. About as long as the one pictured, but maybe 30% fatter. The one pictured was the prettiest though. Quote
sk Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 I aid in the rain back home at Index. It loses some of its luster after a while. What's that? A little tear? Yes, I am whining. HA at least your foot isn't broken so tired of being broken and watching my calf waste away... Quote

fenderfour Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 I know a guy who broke his arm earlier this year. He kept going to the climbing gym, doing one-armed bumps from hold to hold. He is now lopsided. Quote
