I'm just getting back into climbing after a week long hiatus following 29 years of flashing narnar like the S Arrete of Custer and Mesahchie, Pinball Gulleys.

 

I'm soloing Dark Peak with two other buddies this month, alpine style. Watch for the movie....

[olyclimber]

Killer. Great climb. Crux is that bouldery section in the middle. Probably V2 in the gym, but in the alpine its easily V4+.

[olyclimber]

Not that I care about ratings. I say just go climb it, and make a full feature film about it.

[summitchaserCJB]

I still don't know why I'm having all these comments directed at me....

 

'cuz you can/have actually climbed, have a girl friend and oh, I forgot...can't actually recite every climb or boulder problem you have done in your life. May be that is why.

 

You can't recite/remember them all....can you?? Naw, didn't think so

I hear you brag about polar circus all over the place.

[tvashtarkatena]

It's not about the gnar for me. That's just how I roll. It's not about talking about it. I'll leave that for others. I just talk back. You wanna post a TR every time you hike? That's you. Me, I'm already on to my next project, whether it be Patagonia, China, The Shellrocks, wherever. I don't feel the need to explain it.

You see, one thing I've learned in my almost 30 years of climbing hard is that it doesn't pay to brag. At the end of the day, you look at yourself in the mirror and say "That's me." Nobody else can do that for you. I won't apologize for who I am, although others might.

[tvashtarkatena]

I'm definitely going to Hell for this....

[RuMR]

gushing fans say, "you climb so hard, Trashy!"...

Um, I think the Devil might be a notch or two quicker there, Rudy.

[RuMR]

I was distracted torturing someone else...

 

[G-spotter]

Have I told you about all the hard things I'm going to climb yet? You can't be a cc.com hardman unless you have a list of at least 50 climbs that you are totally going to do over the next year, or season, or whatever.

[summitchaserCJB]

next season.

NE Buttress of Slesse, Sandy Headwall Hood, Adam's glacier on Adams, Liberty Ridge on Rainier, North Ridge of Stewart, a bunch of stuff in th bugs. Probably more.

That is the best non-porn movie ever.

Must be talking about me 'cuz don't think Marc has done PC last we talked. Not that he couldn't with ease. You? Not likely.

 

Climbing is a lot like fighting...always some one bigger and badder out there with his mouth shut ready to slap you around like a rag doll. Best to shut the fuck up so you don't look so..... stupid.

 

 

[summitchaserCJB]

ya ya

So you didn't get the second ascent?

Guess I heard wrong.

Anyone remember this post?

 

G. Roper describes 2nd, 3rd, and 4th class in terms of difficulty.

2nd class - like walking up an open stairwell on the outside of a building with a railing.

3rd class - like walking up that same stairwell without the railing.

4th class - like climbing an off-vertical ladder up that same building. If you fell, it would kill you, but it would be damn hard to fall unintentionally.

5th class - having to climb the building without the stairwell of the ladder.

 

I remember that NOLS taught it as the consequences of an unprotected fall:

1st class - you might get some bruises and cuts.

2nd class - you will get some bruises and cuts.

3rd class - you will get some bruises and cuts, you might break something.

4th class - you will break something, you might get dead.

5th class - will kill you.
