Alright.. starting to think that an honest gtg can be pulled together for this upcoming spring. It should be happening soon you know. Or, maybe I'm just wishful thinking because it's supposed to be in the 40's here this week. In either case, just trying to pull a gtg for everyone at Devil's Lake. Heck, if nothing more then just to boulder and get outside with everyone again. So, right now, I'm thinking March 20th & 21st. What say thee?
BTW, we could do what Organic did last summer with a post (this one let's say) showing what's going on during the weekends throughout the summer..

Well.. I'm suggesting just a bouldering outing March 20th and 21st (although, I just found out I have to be somewhere on the 21st, but I'll be around regardless). Just something so everyone could get together again for a little bit.. hopefully the weather will cooperate with us.
If not.. I'm sure April will be rather kind for everyone.
Oh, and I'm bringing Sendiks orange juice if you guys are bringing more Smirnoff. :lol:

shoulder wha....? you could be a belay monkey...jk...i'm up for bouldering, to, even tho i dont know you guys, but you climb at DL, so you must be cool. anyone up for some trad? my fiance got me some shiny metolius cams for my b-day, and they talk to me while i sleep...a pink ALIEN would be cool, but what size should it be? keep me updated, and i will probably run into you guys at VE sometime, i'll be over at the cracks, grunting like a sickly monkey...have you guys ever thought that mowz was twitchy?

What?! Who.. where? Shoulder? Is this still that injury from wakeboarding this past fall? Seriously girl. Sucks though.. but, definitely stay off it until the pay sub-sides. Don't want a lasting injury. Come up regardless.. still should be a good time.
Anyway, I would definitely be into doing some trad. But, I think we're going to have to wait on that one. It's still rather early, and I could pretty much guarantee that the cracks will still be wet/seaping from the spring thaw (usually have to wait into April before you'll be able to get on any serious trad climb). Also, careful with the cams at the lake. As you probably already know, with the nature of the stone, it's not unheard of for a cam to completely slide out from a placement. You almost have to treat the placements like a normal stopper placement, just making sure that it'll get some purchase if you do take a fall. FYI, I guess..

Yeah we still have a little bit of snow, but thats like a wet crash pad right? Has anyone heard what the weather is supposed to be like.
As far as the knee goes, twisting is still hard on it, and hurts sometimes, but I think its doing alright. I haven't really pushed it yet.
