Pete_H Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 My partner took a messy dump from the hanging belay after leading the first pitch of Sea of Vapors. After climbing it, on the way down the shit had frozen. I waited out the bottom while he hacked frozen shitsicles off the climb. You probably couldn't do that with those fancy modern tools though.

Pete_H Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 My buddy found a #5 camalot at the base of El Cap. It's pretty fucked up but I've used it before. It's name is Mr. Wobbly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete_H Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I "lost" a #5 camalot at the base of El Cap, but it was in my pack, not dropped. When you were climbing in the Valley I'm pretty sure camalots hadn't been invented yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billcoe Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I "lost" a #5 camalot at the base of El Cap, but it was in my pack, not dropped. Identify the color and then we'll know it's yours and Pete will return it to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherri Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I dropped my almost-new yellow linkcam off the top pitch of "Rock On" in Squamish last week. It had been given to me as a special birthday present last year, so I was sad about having been so careless with it(and dreading telling my S/O of its fate). On the rap down from the climb, I spotted it near the 2nd rap station, delicately dangling from a tree banch like a Christmas ornament. A happy ending.

Off_White Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 (edited) I "lost" a #5 camalot at the base of El Cap, but it was in my pack, not dropped. When you were climbing in the Valley I'm pretty sure camalots hadn't been invented yet. Oh, I'm pretty sure they were invented before last June, foo. Thanks Bill, but it was brand new, no dinged up wobbler, and I know Pete wouldn't be stealing shit out of people's packs.

Pete_H Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Yeah pretty sure the one I have fell off somewhere on the Captain. That's fucked up someone stole a #5 from your pack. Maybe it was bears. Bad, crack smoking bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pink Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 i dropped a few of pitons and chongo gave them back to me the next day when he was camping on south seas for like forever... and i smoked a bowl with him for the kind gesture. we passed the bowl with a stuff sack tied to two 60 meter ropes tied together from his high camp while i listened to "and justice for all". fuck, it took like 10 minutes to "pass the dutchy".
