neversummer Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 Im thinking about heading to Rope up this weekend, anybody need a partner? I wanna do some trad stuff, but no partner and no trad lead skills. Looking to follow someone up anything 5.9 or less to get some experiance cleaning good placements. Would like to spend the other day hiking/scrambling up something high. Can drive to lworth, got a small car though. PM me if your interested. Quote
E-rock Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 If you follow Erik you might get to clean 3 or 4 pieces all day. Sure makes top-roping his leads fun. Quote
mattp Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 Its shaping up as if I may have a conflicting obligation, but I may be ready to climb with you on Sunday, which would be my preferred day for a Castle Rock climb. Yesterday, LawGod and LeeJams indicated interest in doing something on Castle Rock, and there are a whole host of good climbs 5.9 and under. It'll be one of those clusterf*cks that are your biggest nightmare when you run into them on a crag, but I figure I can safely take as many as four climbers who haven't done multipitch routes before. We can make short pitches of it to stay in contact and the belay ledges are huge and if we are careful not to drop anything, those who run into our traffic jam will have little right to complain. Castle Rock is a public place. Quote

hikerwa Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 Bummed i can't make it to the rope up, but glad that cc.com regulars can get revenge on the mounties one weekend a year and stack up on all the routes!(although we seldom get into other peoples way on roadside climbs like those pesky, lazy mountaineers!!!) Â have a great safe weekend everyone I'll be thinking about you while I'm climbing in AZ! Â I'll be and anc hopefully myself in the sun... Â have fun, sean Quote
ivan Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 i'm in the same situation meself...matt, neversummer, need any extra hands? i've done a few routes at castle rock already (enjoyed the hell oughta falling off the first roof of brass balls ) won't be around until saturday afternoon but staying through sunday Quote
Highlander Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 Join the KTK. I hear that initiations will be going on this weekend with lots of hazing activities such as soloing classic crack drunk at night, and the like. Should be fun Quote
mattp Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 See you there, Ivan (I'm not sure whether they'd let me in the KTK or not). Quote
erik Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 quote: Originally posted by mattp: See you there, Ivan (I'm not sure whether they'd let me in the KTK or not). nope you qualify.... Â Quote
ivan Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 i'll take my tee in an extra-small...like to emphasize my manly belly, ya know? Quote
Jens Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 I'll be at castle or midnight on Saturday and am almost always willing to share a rope. Quote
ivan Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 yeah, jens, but you're a sexual tyransaurus when you take to the rock...us flacid and flabby neolithophites get scared and weepy when we attempt to follow your effortless leads  actually that's bullshit...as indicated i dug doing one fourth of brass balls w/ya and dan...if i can find ya i'm sure i'll attach as a damn leech  sabuto mofos  oh, yeah, and after intensive research i've deduced that "ktk" is a) NOT a newfangled sexual lubricant b) NOT a refuge for girly men or manly girls c) probably an elite paramilitary organization cooler than eagle scouts d) definitly only attainable by those knowledgeable of walking what fatso buddha might have called "the boozer way" Quote

mikeadam Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 per capita KTK gets more you know what than the average frat. Quote

COL._Von_Spanker Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 I figure there will be lots of people that will need partners since is gonna be a big climbing clusterfuck. I need one too, but I figure I'll just work something out when I get there. Though I would like to get on Givlers crack if anyones up for it. Quote
ivan Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 colonel, givler's rocks...done it before but would be glad to do it again (is a bit of a walk up the hill...can we put in a chairlift or what? coke might pay for it if we let them sponsor the rope-up)  ...you get the first pitch of givler though  reckon it will be a clusterfuck...first decision, who's remotely sober enough to be trusted? and are they german?
