I don't drive a gas guzzler. I made it up on just over 1.5 tanks.
I didn't drive to TM, my pal did. No gas there.
I'm still under budget, too. not paying for camping and free food helps.

I think Doc had visited more areas and climbed more. Without a doubt WMD has done more driving.
It's a "see the country trip" as much as a "climbing trip." Granted, they go hand in hand, since lots of the national parks have climbing, but you get the idea.
Have faith, yo.
I might drive 6 hours out of the way to see where my dad grew up on the way home. With the A/C on, too.

If you get there, see a cute girl with long (natural) blond hair who seems to be in love with everything see if she remembers Rebecca. I met her down in Hueco, and climbed with her again in Red Rocks over 4 years ago. She's been back and forth to China a lot and I've only really been facestalking her for the last long while. Oh, Clamhead will also be out there in August...but they'll be on their honeymoon. I think that biner96 was also trying to get out there for a while too. The place is full right now, I'm having a blast. Everyone here is so nice, it's great. And it's just climbers. Squamish rock beats the valley so far, imo. better friction. I think Voytek and I are climbing this weekend, possibly with another guy. I'm drowning in partners.
Hope you imported your own coming out of the states!

Fekkin moneybags there obviously don't give a shit how high gas prices are, damn the torpedos full steam ahead!   cheesetits on driving straight through to the Valley, not stopping at the places that are actually IN SEASON along the way, regardless if whether you had partners set up or not. See... way it works is, you go to the places where people will actually BE climbing, it's easy enough from there to find someone to climb with. Not so easy to find partners when a place is too hot to climb, so all the smart ones are climbing where it's cool. Did yous momma raze any chillins who lived? Did you check Tuolumne at least? I'd bet that's where all the climbers were, instead of down on the floor of the HotBox. Should'a stopped in Maple Canyon, Utah. It's at 7,000 or so feet and is full of climbers right now. Then when it cools a bit you either head to Smith or Squamish. As the season turns head south again stopping at Smith then work your way to Vegas as the temps drop. Also, anything above 12,000 feet doesn't get much warmer than 70. My partner for Whitney was on a road trip last year this time. He left Maine in June and did the above. I think he finally worked his way down to Owens River Gorge sometime in September. Either plan on heading north or to higher elevation. There's a reason we can climb year-round in the Sierras. When there's snow on the ground we head to lower elevation. When it's 120 out we head up in the mountains. When looking at the weather, too, ( as it is vastly different from out East) take into consideration that for every 2,000 feet in elevation you gain, the temps will be - on average - 10 degrees cooler. I hope you guys enjoyed the finger exercise, cause he doesn't listen. Don't hate. i know everything you guys said, what's the point of doing a road trip if you don't do what you want to do. I had friends to see near the valley, so why not? I knew it'd be hot, but I would have stayed if there had been more climbers. Spending the summer would have been fun, but Squamish is absolutely great, so who cares. sheesh...
Sheesh!

Flight plans are firming up.
WMD, I will keep you posted offline.
High Sierra route?
Donner and Teh Leap?
I will dig through my high-sierra book and look at some options.
Though Donner is 35 min from my rent's house. Teh Leap is around 1.5 hours. Both are excellent. It's been a long while since I was in Teh Leap. Also could do Touloumne... Though it is busy season in Teh Park.

All the electronics are fried, including the phone line and internet. 3 computers, satelite dish etc etc. Blew a hole in the bathroom ceiling through the fan. Hunks of drywall missing. Shot a hole of drywall clear across the room.
On a good note, I had 4 Hot firemen in my bedroom!
Luckily no fire was started in the roof.

A tree feel on the powerlines going into my parent's house a few years ago with similar results (no surge protector). It seemed pretty random what was totally blown, and what wasn't (I think the fridge and the TV were okay, but the portable phones and computer were fried).

I might get a silent partner, but climbing with people is better. I PM'd Voytek for Squamish, hopefully he can climb and or hook me up in parnters. It's prime season there anyway. I second the buying of a gri gri for some soloing The GriGri is great for roped solo I'm not a huge fan of the death modified GriGri, or using a chest harnes to hold it up right to feed better, but have used both. I've also taken a good meatbomb due to the GriGri not feeding. YMMV. Con't go wrong with it for aid though. That said I've done more roped solo free climbing with a clove-hitch around a couple lockers that with any other device/way of roped solo. DO NOT get the Wren Soloist I hear the Edelrid Eddy is good for Roped solo as well. healyJe uses it a lot for that. Emailed a few Euros that are using it too, but a lot was lost in the translations in those emails, I did understand the "kick ass" and "I make solo rope climb on free very well with device Eddy" and "recomend over GriGri". I think the couple Euros I was emailing were using online translators... Likely the same ones I was using (explains some of the loset in translation), but we got enough out of it. I have one on order right now. It's supposed to feed better than the GriGri too. That's what I've always done, but I've only aided. Not so great for free climbing. I hear the Eddy is good, too, but part of me wants something designed for it....it makes my head happy. But if it works, it works.
Sp is great. Hands down the best feeding roped solo device out there... Love it, except for the price tag, the cumbersome change over, the needing another device to lower out... mind you I've done more roped solo with a clove around a couple lockers than any other way. Oh and one must mention having a hunk of metal the size of a small child right by your ballz  just waiting for that "wrong move" you know that move to fast and "crunch" move .
I have to give it props, but there is a reason I'm going with something else 'at this time'.
After I give my rundown on the eddy and get that system dowm pat I'll see if I can get my hands on a SP a write up my impressions of both.

Except for the firemen. Good thing Bruce was away.
I don't think we give you enough credit. DVDA is no party trick. Especially with big fireman hoses.
How did the big TV(s) fare?

All the electronics are fried, including the phone line and internet. 3 computers, satelite dish etc etc. Blew a hole in the bathroom ceiling through the fan. Hunks of drywall missing. Shot a hole of drywall clear across the room. On a good note, I had 4 Hot firemen in my bedroom! Luckily no fire was started in the roof. Got your facebook msg beccs. will reply here from work while I'm here. Going home soon to deal with electricians. I used to like lightening storms Just a driveby. Will have to catch up someday when I get my laptop back O_o Whoah! We barely ever even get a wee bit of lightning here, but getting your house hit by it??? You also "barely ever even get a wee bit of" sun in rainy haggis land. LMFAO. it's true. First sunny morning in ages today, look out the window and everything is soaked from the pouring rain last night. It's pissing it down ATM.
Dayum, I would diez if I didn't getz to see dee sun. I hate rain a whole lot now, I can't imagine getting it all teh time.

The worst part is there were two days of perfect weather last week, a fine wind, nice and sunny, and I had 16 hour shifts both days.
FUCK!
