shouldnt you be aid climbing in the rain right now?

Well! first of all i'm living in the arctic wasteland called Calgary (this whole week has been -30) and if i was in squamish i'm pretty sure it would be raining...so i might as well be aid climbing.

csg has a point there about the exfoliation. not sure if it is due to clay mineral boudaries though. There was a big debate amongst geologist a long time ago about desert rocks being cracked and exfoliated. Some argued that it was chemical weathering disputing that it was thermal expansion causing t...

It's really nice to climb without a helmet on, and squamish is great for that because of the bomber granite. But i still do often wear a helmet where i know people will be climbing above me. i'm more afraid of getting a piece of gear dropped on my head than a rock. anyways, point is i dont wear a he...

I wouldn't really worry too much about doing extra hand strength training. Your skin will adjust as long as your climbing consistently. I remember when i started i was always getting flappers. nothing a little tape wont help. One thing i would avoid as a beginner though is crimping. It's really hard...

are you talking about guides as in books or people? reguardless, just hang out at the campground for a day and you'll meet people to climb with. Also, since your female, i'm sure the men of squamishclimbing.com will be willing to help ! check out http://www.drtopo.com for a portion of the bouldering...

Nice work on cutting edge PAW. Wish i could have been up today. Stupid finals!

there is quite a bit that can be done with rap approaches I knew it! any idea what climbs this works for? from what i can see it seems to be the stuff near fungus razor would be out of the right of way. oh yah, i think monocampus has a point there with the whole poison river thing. they really did ...

http://www.access-society.ca/squamish/squamish(general).html#item8 Looks like no new news yet. maybe someone should start nagging the acess society, but it sounds like their on the ball. i've never even been down there but i'm wondering if the 8 meter right-of -way covers the whole crag? are there ...

So jason... your telling me that I watch too much porn? I do not feel that i have lost touch with nature, I just like watching people climbing at their limit. Actually! i didn't mind the climbing in "return to balance" nor the music. i may go as far as to call it art...but the dialog was cheeze. Tha...

i'm sure glad some other people think that that ron kauk part of that video was totally lame. i watched it once! couldn't take it again. maybe i should try it on mute? i would agree with you on the fact that return to sender is better. mostly for sheer variation of climbing though. as for other good...

damn you and climbing on monday!

I still prefer TCU's in some placements over aliens. I'd go with some tcu's for a second small cam. except for the lack of camelots your setup sounds pretty dope.

Yo.
