Serenity Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Huh...speaking of which. I was just in Dahlonega. Still sucks. Porter was a Batt-Boy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 No, I was not a Batt-Boy, but that is some good training. Never know when you're going to have to fist jam in a combat situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevetimetravlr Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 There was a morning at Classic Crack when a team of Army Rangers showed up trying to climb it and rap it. I think it might have been the day in the photo above 25-30 years ago there about. Anyway, one guy got stuck half way and was freaking, and the officer was yelling "Deal with it Ranger, deal with it!" So that became our mantra when someone would freak out partway up on some climb we would yell it at them. I saw someone named a climb in the Leavenworth guide "Deal with it Ranger". Maybe the Rangers went to Classic Crack allot, but I only saw them there myself the once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total control using precise strength and balance- it was awesome to watch John fucking Bachar solo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt_warfield Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 (edited) Over 7000 views per foot of climb. Some fun historical anecdotes make it more fun including Leclerc before he outgrew cc.com. Edited June 30, 2016 by matt_warfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
