If it's a good route, I'll do it a bunch of times. If it sucks, then I'll probably do it once. That's if it's a hard for me climb. On easier climbs, I'll do them a bunch of times regardless just to get some mileage in.

[quote="diggum"]Yeah...even though I sent that 5.7 at the gym a couple weeks ago...I keep getting back on it. I flail around on that one jug though. Shoulda just stayed off it after I nailed that bad boy. :wink:

I'm with piggie on this. Inside doesn't count for this question.

I've climbed the same routes several times after either sending them or falling off them repeatedly. The thing is, though, I'm so high all the time I can't remember, plus, I'm not a real climber... yeah.

Any great climb is worth jumping on and doing. I don't care if I've done it before, but then again I've never done anything that's taken me two months of work to redpoint.

The thing with climbing outside you've got to actually get to the route from your car instead of across the parking lot. So far for me, I would go back to any crag I've been to if the right people were going there and I'd climb on the same crimpy 5.11 face that shut my ass down the last time and love every fall. :|

I don't mind doing routes over up to a point. Anything that stays dry at Fortress,
I have done too many times to be interested,except Blue Runner,it's just stellar.

Yeah, but you don't count. Tell me, how many people have spent HALF as much time at Fortress as you have? Two? One? Four? Seems I remember you heating soup along through there last winter... :) For that matter, you've probably spent more time at Wall of Denial (or Coffin Ridge/Buzzards Poop or whatever) than most people reading this have spent on Roadside.



Actually, you DO count, ynot, but you count for so much you're not included in the results.

I like getting back on climbs I've sent. I especially love climbing them again on top-rope, after I've sent something hard for me, because then I don't have to think about clipping or taking whips. I can just climb and enjoy the moves...
