Dirtyleaf Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Dreams are for dancers Pete. Come join the rest of us in reality. And if you ever feel shit out of luck, you can always move to yakima. Quote
Pete_H Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Yakima, rhe resting spot for many a broken dream. Quote
G-spotter Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Don't know where dreams went wrong? Maybe back when you were young and strong. Quote

Pete_H Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 There's much worse places than Yakima. Seattle, for example. Quote
Peter_Puget Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 If you stay in Yakima long enough to be considered a "local" at some point the secrets of the Cowiche will be revealed and you'll never climb in Tieton again... Quote
Dirtyleaf Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 That's a load of crap. Cowiche already been explored and tested by moi. "Crap." That's the best word to describe it. It looks promising until you get up close and actually try climbing some of that dirty shit. I'm definitely not cool enough to find any local yakima climbers for tieton. Quote
Peter_Puget Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) Looks like you'll never learn the secrets of the Cowiche. Edited December 23, 2009 by Peter_Puget Quote
Pete_H Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 You know you're a Yakima local if you even know how to pronounce Cowiche. Quote

wayne Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Well, what a thread this turned into!! This seems to be the best way to get to know you all. (besides hanging out in Patagonia) . 09 was a most interesting year. Many changes from being an empty nester to taking a break from my nearly all consuming hi-rise career. It started with my first trip to Patagonia, and with my Sweety! We had the best time getting to know the Seattle crew and trekking, cragging and I hooked up with the Mad Dog to do El Mocho> Coming back to an epic ice season in WA , we did many routes and a couple of fa,s along the way. Skied Red Pk with a great crew of 5 Sneeking on more ice on 3-fingers traverse and an fa in the South Pickets with the amazing Steph. Discovered short film making when I got my Mac! Fa with Layton on Dome 2nd ascent-Gunnrunner Traverse Nw Arayete Shuksan 2nd ascent N Ridge of Buck Mythic Wall Back to ice again after moving to Pullman to build a house for my friend-3 fas in Idaho 4 day Hyalite Now we are in Cody to end a very interesting year to be sure. Enjoyed all of your posts and trs, thanks.. Quote

Bug Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Oh yeah, Took my 13 yr old up Rainier. "Boring. No cell coverage and the ipod wasn't charged." Soloed a bunch of easy stuff to get my knee back working. It is. Bought skiis and boots af all kinds. Using them. Beat up the ice this year. Still easy stuff but coming back. Looking forward to a good 2010 with TWO good knees. Quote
