Thanks but can we edit them?

Don't give in to the desperation of bad BC weather. Vantage is NOT worth the gas and hassle it takes to get down there - even if you do have good weather, never mind the shitty cold you will no doubt find now. Take the chossiest cliff in squamish, and put it in the middle of a frozen nowhere, choss ...

I'm going out on a limb and saying that some sport routes in Squamish are too closely bolted versus the bolting style like Smith. It takes a bit away from the exprience of leading with the potential for a big whipper. I think its a bit of a loss for us. Any thoughts? "it's too run out - waaa waaa" ...

Its not a tumor. And anyway, how is it you are always on vacation - its totally unfair!

Will be able to edit them? darn steve, looks like your reply needs editing :cry: i guess i'll help then... "Will WE be able to edit them?" I don't really see the need for this site to have an edit function. Whenever anybody makes a factual, grammatical or spelling error, Brendan will edit it for th...

If you like trad, check out Little Egypt. There is a world-class 5.12 crack called Espresso there. There are also some decent 5.10's and a 5.11d called Dog Day Afternoon which is also amazing, an overhanging hand/fist crack! These are all great routes. At Rock Creek, there are also great sport climb...

Like the title says, I gots a BD Yosemite Hammer (the pretty one with the hickory handle and investment cast head with piton hole), and a mint condition hand drill with wrenches. I think the drill is Hurricane Mountain Industry, but it could be something else, I bought it at MEC like 10 years ago. I...

Does anyone know where to find a recent-ish topo of Horne Lake? I know the directions to it, I just need the actual crag topo. Thanks.

When I saw this topic title, I had a great answer for you, but I guess some prudes may not like it, so at least enjoy my avatar...

If you are upset about that 11a, do Morpheus, its rated 12a and easier than most 11s in squamalia.

Using the logic yo mentioned above, I can easily disprove every single onsite you have ever done with some technicality with in the description. That one was just way out of left field dude. Honestly how many onsights did you see me make that you can be so sure? I'm tired of this topic too, and I d...

First off: Angelina Jolie is not too thin. Second off: Paris who? Third off: No offence taken. I've quite enjoyed the banter. Asinine or not. Lastly: The original point of this thread seems to have been lost. I was not looking for a definition for "onsighting" or "redpointing" I was curious to see ...

Another example: Dean Potter first made news by onsight free-soloing a 5.13 at Mill Creek, Utah. He climbed up to the crux several times over several days before finally committing to the crux and sending the route. Is this really an onsight?? The climbing media seemed to think it was. Opinions? Th...

In the climbing news recently Steve Mclure did a "real" onsight of a 14a route because as he stated he placed all the draws on the go. This makes every other 14a onsight invalid if the definition of an onsight includes placing the draws. Gray area??? Here's a good addendum to the original post: go ...
