What about know my truck will make it up and hope that there is no one at chek so that I can get on whatever I want with no line ups! :twisted:

i wish i could've voted for king swing low, but after my 401st try i finally pieced it together. you'd think after that much effort i would've been excited about sending it, but it was more a feeling of relief just knowing id never have to try it again. sort of like how i feel after redpointing a sport climb.


what im really hoping for this weekend in squamish is to see pete trying to figure out how to boulder and then enjoy listening to the inevitable public dissemination about the contrivance of climbing boulders.
And how is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive? --Homer Simpson

When I said I was going to start bouldering I really just meant that I was going to do more three to five bolt sport routes.
That's the same as bouldering isn't it?
:D

Hey, as long as he doesn't use a rope, it's bouldering. And he will definately need a crash pad!
