Now, I have mentioned that since we have some sort of privacy at teh grupe I don't mind them posted there. But every time a pic of my new stuff is posted on this site I get a shitload of inquires about my new areas from people I don't even know, of course I just ignore them, still I don't want to deal with it. Just so we are clear, Don't post pic's of the new areas. Don't spray to people about the new areas. Don't post or give out directions or route info to the new areas. I don't want them to be overrun with knuckleheads. I think it's cool to see our friends at the areas but how would your day been if there were 15 other guy's at the wall you went to, half of them dropping rocks down on you from the two easy routes on the right? The people that are suppose to be there, already know. The one that shouldn't be there don't need to know. I swear to god if me giving you and snoopy info on how to get to the old new and route info comes back to bite me, I'm going to be up inside your ass and I won't use any lube, so it's going to fuking hurt.

That is fuking all!!!1

Hmmm...

Jack, if you hadn't piped up I doubt anyone would have been any wiser as to where this picture was taken.

I'm just sayin...

I actually can't even think of the photo in question. Its lucky for you that I'm way too lazy to go backwards in time in any of these threads to try to find out.

This is the photo in question.



The gym like look of all the ropes hanging down is really the only clue.

If Jack were half as smart as he thinks he is he could have easily passed it off as anywhere else. There are plenty of other things in the photo thrown in to confuse people. Like the slabby start. A n00b wearing his climbing shoes while belaying. A chunky Snoop. All things that scream NOT the ONWSG.

I've been banzed off the floor!

Actually, this makes my job easier. I keep asking if I can impliment production improvments to the line. They keep telling me no. My boss yells at me a little. I tell him I agree, its rediculus. I return to my desk.

I actually have a decent bit of programming to do at my desk though so its not all awesome.

Closures aren't common around here, but I've seen bigger and more rocks come off that face from goats on any given day. Besides there are "Watch for Falling Rock" signs all over that area.
Just sayin'

Tourons don't see it that way. They see climbers trundling rocks as wrecking stuff. And arguably it is a little reckless to be trundling when there are people around.
It only takes one touron making a phone call to the wrong person to get the problems started.

Yeah, but this one wasn't "trundling". He smeered up to the Block, looked at it and it released! He caught it on his shoulder.

As for irresponsible rock release... the sheep there release H U G E rocks all the time.


But, Tourons are dumb and we can all agree on that.
I'm just sayin'







Also, I would have pegged you as having better judgment than the sheep and not been climbing there when it is high touron time.

Tourons are dumb, but they likely have enough money for good lawyers.


You missed the part where I said I wasn't there that day.

On that same day I was almost 200km away from said crag in question doing my own FA at a different new crag, one at which all the Cleaning intailed was using my nut tool to clear out a crack for some gear and pullying pine needle infiltrated moss like vegitation off a couple holds. Solid rock, solid gear, no real cleaning. The biggest objective hazard that day was the redneck accross the valley unloadign a couple boxes of 30-06 or 308 shells at... we don't know which hill... so we hid behind a couple trees and drank an ice cold beer while we waited for him to stop.

The crag in question I have already decided to leave be untill the fall, and likely on a midweek day. I'll go back there at that point and clean it till it's safe to climb whilst dumb tourons are below. Would the other guys have had the same missfortune with rockfall if there hadn't been so much rain before the weekend? Don't know.

It took you that long to retire your original Reverso?

You can grind down the sharp edges.


I gave away my Reverso to Zomb_E cause it sucked.
Yes it did. Yes I have rounded the edges once before. And no it doesn't suck.

And yes I'm waiting for the new one.
Oh, and I think I remember where I put my Stitch Plate. Whoo!

I've been working.

L'habitant is working and doesn't have internet at home anymore. Until it gets fixed.

Rebecca is busy at work.

WMD is burning gas.

Art is pretending to be climbing.

The donnys are temporarily on the run.

Doc is necromancing.

Who did I forget?

I have had a shitty day. I am currently going through far too much programming to figure out what we can remove so my problems never happen to anyone else. This will take at least the rest of the week.

I took the line down for about an hour today (well, not me. My electrician, but it ends up being my responsibility in the end). I have been waiting for someone to yell at me or give me a guilt filled sit down talk about what I did wrong and how I can never let something like that happen again.

I hate my job.
Okay, I feel I have earned the right to rant, here.
It's four in the morning, I've been working since yesterday's A.M. and I have more cleaning to do.
Fuck this shit! I don't hate work, work is just the symptom... fuck money!
That is where you are wrong.


This is also where you are wrong.


This thread is also where you are wrong.



Three strikes.



You're out!!!!
Wait, isn't that only 2? since like the 2 were in the 1?

My biggest bitch was the lack of fricton when belaying or rappeling.

Rebecca's Reverso 1.0 is hanging on the gear wall in the basement collecting dust. You'd have to work a deal out with her though.

There were a lot of medical offices in that building!!!

It took me longer to figure out where I was supposed to go than it did to get the blood drawn.
