Scrambling as I see it: One day, non technical (meaning w/o the use of ropes) peakbagging. Of course there are exceptions to everything, as some would call the west ridge of prusik a "scramble".

Yes we are going to scramble it on Friday [big Grin]

It's funny how you have the time to search out and post numerous photographs illustrating all sorts of outdoor endeavors, but no time nor inclination to figure out what the word "scramble" means. Is that so you can clamber upon your soapbox to piously proclaim "I just wanted her to explain what she meant..." while lobbing a long abusive string at her? Somehow, I suspect you may actually have already known what she meant... Congratulations, asshole, you're a real live bully. Fortunately, you apparantly have a posse.

 

No wonder this site has such a poor reputation. Someone posts looking for a partner, and pretty much unleashes a vicious string of bullshit.

 

Either that, or when sounding out the word s-c-r-a-m-b-l-e you heard the word s-p-r-a-y.

Yeah so does everyone else. Any granite wall you can walk up to within 1 hour have lines if it's near any city.

 

Scree, glaciers, talus are just part of the game if you want to enjoy some more remote climbing. The vies photos and experience overrride anything else. This is obvious...

 

Just give it a few tries and you too will find yourself addicted to the alpine [big Grin]

 

Scrambling is just a means of getting to those alpine walls sometimes [big Grin]

Just make sure you do a great route first. That way the pain is worth the effort.

 

In my opinon a great summit is worth more than any 5.10 redpoint. Although I am not downplaying a good rock climb. [rockband] They are rememberable too.

 

It's not so difficult if you find a good partner. I have climbed with many of these geeks posting here. We always have fun, even when we fail.
