Hilarious. And true--for some.

Smitty, a great shot from Longs' diamond face just for you:

My knees get weak and my stomach turns just looking at the picture.

thanks hungry. that makes me want to get out and climb. I havent been on rock since spring break and right now after a day of poop filled diapers and baby talk I like to have the dream that I could get out and climb that next summer.

Is that the first pitch on the Casual? I cant tell. Heck, it could be the last.
I was just guessing one the lower easy pitches as I dont see much gear in the shot.


Tgantz- the weak knees and stomach churning is the fun part of climbing[heck and dating too ]. There is a lot of fun climbs that you can do that are not exposed and scary at all and after a while you get used to the exposure. Stuff that would have left my buttcheeks clenched for weeks when I started I doesnt even warrant a slight tightening now.

I am not familiar with the route, but I would guess that that vantage point is not too far above Chasm Lake, maybe 500 ft or so.

Nice view of Broadway and Kieners:

Graffiti is ruining our parks. I blame that rap music.

Do you mean climbing equipment like pitons, cams and such left on mountain faces?

I think he means that black line somebody painted on the mountain face

No, the [expletive] that drew an arrow up the mountain in your last picture. I don't even get the message, it's just pointless vandalism.
