went to teh bear carg over teh weke end with the mangler. main project was Bear Backin' It, which I zent on Sunday.
Also onzited Tony's new rowt Livewire -- movement was fun, the rowt-cleaning left a lot to be desired. Very steep jugs, mostly; with a couple smaller holds. At the bottom there is a microwave+ sized-block that you pull on and make a big move off of -- it does not seem that secure, though it isn't moving (yet). Then in the top steep jugs section, there are a few holds that creak. The worst of them was creaking badly, so I got on the anchor direct and with a couple sharp kicks, pieces were coming free. The main block was about the size of a toaster. Hold was unnecessary to teh rowt (jugs abound up there), just there to ruin someone's day.

Well it isn't much for spray. I could have posted the names but there is no way to look them up online. Plus, you know what a climb you failed to insight is right? NOTHING!!!

true and true. Still low key though, and guarded by a horrendous hike. You hike down, much like going down into a HOLE. Getting in you get the shaky knees. Going out hurts the quads. I'd say getting out is like doing a Castleton. Maybe 45 minutes to hike out? I forget how long Castleton actually is, been a few years.

I prefer to call those nothings a hangdog, but that's just me. And it's more that you have to tell us the the grade of the climbs you failed to onsite...
But anyway, I am not sure why I took on the spray-police role in jack's absence. I am not objecting. You know I like spray. In fact, let me tell you, there is this 13a that I failed to onsight this spring...

My callouses are getting pretty intense, especially on my pinky. Thoughts? I'm worried I'll absent mindedly chew them off.

Don't talk to me about callouses and skin issues. You have any idea what dry tool training in this heat and humidity does to your hands?!

Calluses are good! And yeah, file them down to where they don't rip off. I am losing all my skin, so I am the opposite of you. So sad to see all the hard-won fingertip skin slouching away.
