How is it possible that Ed standing on the ground can still reach higher than me standing on a chair? Not fair! Fortunately, I don't need the jugs on the top of the hangboard, anyway... yore chair is two small. btw, went to Echo last weke end in the heat, was okay in the shade. did several runs on Buried Treasure, figuring it's probibly the closest thing to Ceuse I could find nearby in socak. headed to the old gnu way too early tomorrow. Clearly my chair is too small! I hope you get all good beta on Ceuse in a week, and come back later for longer. My friend had just pent a month there before heading to California, where his girlfriend now lives. You guys would be crossing in the air.

Sent my project Saturday. A minor beta twerk and I sent next go. Part of a send train, my partner sent and then 4 of the routesetter crew who showed up sent too, including 2 flashes. 6 sends in a day of an obscure route at an obscure crag. Place is in the map. When we showed up in May, there was zero chalk, now it's caked. Loyerettes birthday yesterday, nice little party with bubbles and cake. Fun.

Lol. Well they sent the whole tiny crag in a day while drinking beerz, so I don think there will be too many return visits. But 17 climbers were there at some point during the day, for a crag with 8 routes.

snoopy138 wrote: Well, while you guise were watching your animated filmz, I went to the hole on Sunday morning. Was able to get a 2-hang run in on the drive-by, which is not bad for having not been there in 4 or 5 months. Nobody else was there other than the couple from the gym that I brought along. Folks have definitely been there, though ... when I started up the warmup, I was rather surprised (but maybe not that surprised) to find that the positive edge of the crimp that I matched on to the left of the third bolt was gone. It's still useable as a left hand, but not as a match, so I had to use the standard beta. It's not a huge deal, except if you are short and dependent on the match. One of Jak's exes was getting close to the redpoint with your beta no doubt.

And besides, it's not like I would need mono pockets at the Red. Ideas? I would also like to hang, bored. But my elbow is still tweaky.

Had a good day with the monkees at Shagg on Friday. GG redpointed the warmup. The marmint sent Ginseng and Shaggin' Wagon and also had a credible go at Meltdown, which is a strawng showing. Then we jumped off the jiant boulder into the lake.
