I really wouldn't wuntz to fall on it. I watched clikker take repeated 30'ers on his purple TCU at the T-wall. Made my anoose pucker. purple C3 is smaller than the murple petolius. this is true: purple C3 = grey Metolius.
It has been well established that purple gear is stronger than other non-purple gear, everything else being equal.

But maybe the Mole Star will in fact blow up on the decent and run him oft the rode. It's true... I bombzed on the main wall decent, but Donny figures are perhaps inflated. I rolled my ankle, into a nose dive, with dial bag swinging me into the abyss...rolled once and fell about 20 ft on 80% slope, caught bushes and dirt, preventing another 80 feet to the talus. Thanks Jack, for your cunning plan. FoPo and Clikker almost met similar demises....alas Jack needed more luck. Klown and I did haystack. I lead first two pitches, overshooting the belay by 100 feet, making him simulations 30 ft. We continued our simul on Knapsack crack, which I may go solo later. Many spiritual crimes are on my camera including video...evidence that fopo can crank, jack can paint, louie is a super dog, dribble can trad climb, klamhead can make a funny and much more! Going past a belay by 100' is not overshooting. You were in the zone or something. Also I was impressed by Mo aswell - my first time climbing with her. That overhung handcarck she zent was hard. Mo does pretty dang well. The whole week was a game of grab ass that Donny won. I can't wait to see the video of him 'helping' me start up Traveler's Buttress. That man just can't keep his hands to himself! jeluz! I've grabbed just about everyone in the BET's ass up to this point. Snoppy and Drivel are missing out so far.
Did you grab my ass Donny?
I have and ass. Did you grab mine?

Reading through the RRG routes on MP, it seems like there's a lot of info about "sit-down rests" and "lie-down rests", and shit like this:
vtg wrote: the trick to the lie-down rest is to keep scooting down until your feet are pretty much in the bush. it feels weird and uncomfortable until you get that far- once there, though, its pretty sweet. really good- not really a .12a, imho- if the rest wasn't there, though, it'd definitely be .12ish.
I'm all for smart climbing, but this seems to be a bit excessive.

It is the red river rest area. Some of those horizontal rails are lie down coffins. Hopefully your coffin.

I'm attesting that dribble did not pre-search that description.
And it was for Manifest Density.

you guys lied down underneath teh bush, didn't you?

I'm sitting at the lodge, charging my stuff, drinking beers, crying the real tears that its all over and the klown has left....alive with the terrierist. But maybe the Mole Star will in fact blow up on the decent and run him oft the rode. It's true... I bombzed on the main wall decent, but Donny figures are perhaps inflated. I rolled my ankle, into a nose dive, with dial bag swinging me into the abyss...rolled once and fell about 20 ft on 80% slope, caught bushes and dirt, preventing another 80 feet to the talus. Thanks Jack, for your cunning plan. FoPo and Clikker almost met similar demises....alas Jack needed more luck. Klown and I did haystack. I lead first two pitches, overshooting the belay by 100 feet, making him simulations 30 ft. We continued our simul on Knapsack crack, which I may go solo later. Many spiritual crimes are on my camera including video...evidence that fopo can crank, jack can paint, louie is a super dog, dribble can trad climb, klamhead can make a funny and much more! Going past a belay by 100' is not overshooting. You were in the zone or something. Also I was impressed by Mo aswell - my first time climbing with her. That overhung handcarck she zent was hard. Mo does pretty dang well. The whole week was a game of grab ass that Donny won. I can't wait to see the video of him 'helping' me start up Traveler's Buttress. That man just can't keep his hands to himself! jeluz! I've grabbed just about everyone in the BET's ass up to this point. Snoppy and Drivel are missing out so far. Did you grab my ass Donny? I have and ass. Did you grab mine?
In my dreams each night

Sorry about your bluey! Hope it shows up someplace. The meat up was fucking grate. Many climbs were climbed. Many hikes were hiked. Jack slipped up once and called his trekking pole a cane. I felt like I was going to fall of the Main Wall ledge many times. I wanted to cuddle the terrierist, but was repeatedly rebuffed. Peeps have talked about a lot of stuff already, I will chime in to say that the shirts are sweet! Cutting stencils is fun. Also, the nailers shirt should be one of the pink ones. For gayness. Like mine. Where the fuck is my t-shirt? [image]http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS1b21MNTh3Bij7uUpNsSLK0I6CHAcOCgWyauAPRE-gtqh5J37Glg[/image] Thats Dribble's shirt. I'm wearing that shirt right now.
I wore my g3rk meatup shirt today. It's funny how the "K" icon is a klown, but it's in the clikker howl of rage pose.
