OlympicMtnBoy Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 No, I don't want to belay your ass for two hours in the rain, but how much fun would it be if we were solo aiding close enough to share some tunes and bitch to each other about how crappy our gear is! I just want to get some practice (I've soloed one grade V but am still slow). If twigg responds I may be going to Mt. Erie, but if someone is psyched for solo aid I'm up for that too. I just have trouble self motivating if the weather is crappy and I always go home early. So come out and we'll cheer each other on! - Stewart Quote
ivan Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 where were you when i was there for 2 weeks alone this summer? Quote
OlympicMtnBoy Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 Hehe, probably in Yosemite or Alaska or Mexico. I seem to only end up solo aiding at Index in the winter. Summer's time to put your hands in the cracks instead! ;-) Quote
Edlinger Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Does this party involve booze? You know a keg was once hauled to the top of Godzilla. I can't make it but it would be cool to have a winter cc.com party out at the lower wall lot sometime with a massive bonfire. Quote
tbrugh Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 I like climbing...don't get me wrong, but a keg on top of godzilla...that's incentive!! Quote
OlympicMtnBoy Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 I wasn't planning on booze at my party, but that's cause I don't like to drink by myself. If someone shows up and brings something to share I won't complain. ;-) Looks like I'll be on the Lower Town wall somewhere (snow white?). If we're talkin party though, how about someplace with more room than the top of Godzilla. The ledges part way up town crier would work well. Quote
pink Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 why don't u invite the crew from over at nwhikers and throw ur empties down on them.... Quote
Bug Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Stewart and I ended up pulling into the parking lot about the same time. The flailing was horrific. I even forgot my reverso and almost forgot my fifi hooks. Other than that, I had two kitchen sinks and enough rope to go around the world twice. Left some booty on Sag. Quote
OlympicMtnBoy Posted January 31, 2010 Author Posted January 31, 2010 What Bug said. It wasn't that wet really though. I did half of the first pitch of Snow White. Anyone know what the thin seam above the bolt goes clean at? Probably not that bad, but looked like too many cam hooks in a row over that ledge for my pansy ass today. At least we were outside! Nice to meet you in person Keith! Quote
Bug Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Likewise Stew. I hate belaying aid as it is too hard on the neck. But ping me if you are heading out to do some free climbing. Especially alpine. Quote
kurthicks Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 index was good on friday. nice and dry, even with some sprinkles. mmmm. Quote
Bug Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 I put some of those on my daughter's birthday cake Friday. Quote

tomtom Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 I did half of the first pitch of Snow White. Anyone know what the thin seam above the bolt goes clean at? Probably not that bad, but looked like too many cam hooks in a row over that ledge for my pansy ass today. I don't think it has yet. The sportos traverse in from higher up. I pounded a couple knifeblades in the seam when I did that pitch. Quote
