Re: Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
For the full body effect I mentioned earlier, I recommend crushing it up (a mortar and pestle works well) putting it on a spoon and melting it and injecting it like we do with that smack we all know and love. If you are in a pinch and really need our next fix, your rectum suggestion works well just ...

Re: Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
Singularity is not five stars. Four stars is fair. Andrew has even agreed on this. There can be five star lines in three star areas. The entire point of saying that an area is three stars is that you are making a generalization and taking an average of all of the routes in the area. I hope we all un...

Re: Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
I have been to the following crags at Miller Fork: The Monastary The Deep End Fruit Wall The Portal Serenity Point The Infirmary I understand that is only a meager 31.57894736842% of the crags to be exact. On the other hand, these were the crags that were recommended to me to visit while at Miller F...

Re: Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
Andrew, I agree with you when you say that Miller Fork has no hard routes. However, when I said that Miller Fork as a whole is a three star area, I wasn't confusing difficulty and quality. A route doesn't have to be difficult to make it a five star gem. I also think that the point you made about con...

Re: Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
I am not discrediting or beign ungrateful for all of the hard work that was put in while bolting, cleaning, trail building, funding, etc. I am only trying to say that the water, wind and other eroding forces didn't scuplt the rock as well as it has in the other areas.

Re: Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
I went point harvesting... That's why this thread was created to see what other people had to say about what they thought the majority of the climbs in Miller Fork are like. I am not saying that there aren't good walls like The Deep End, Serenity Point and The Monastery, but even those walls, which ...

Re: Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
All those fun fumes from the glue must have made you an optimist. I am not refering to the rock quality when I talking about the quality of the climbs. I understand that it is new rock, and I actually find the rock quality to be quite good. What I feel makes Miller Fork sub par to the rest of the ar...

Miller Fork : the Tale of a Three Star Area
My first time to Miller Fork I was expecting some quality climbs, but I was sadly disappointed. Miller Fork is full of three star climbs and the 'classics' are four stars at best. Five star climbs are no where in sight. What's going on? Is there more rock, (not the shit kind)?

Even if that means that you are able to jump right past the crux.

Flying starts?
For this topic a flying start will be defined as when the climber starts the route by jumping to a higher hold with at least one foot on the ground and one hand on the wall.
