Heh, heh. Good one Horatio. Perhaps if you'd like to dumb down your technique, we could go climbing sometime. I've really been wanting have all of Ray's projects get sent.

My projects won't interest you Johnny. They're mostly clean, solid and non-vegetated cracks that take good gear.

You know how it tickles me to see an avalanche coming down from a leader as gear falls out.

ynot, spraying is part of climbing. if you don't spray you are not really a climber. I think it is important to be excited about what you do and want to share it. and your stories rock...

I'm sure I read in one of the climbing mags that the SECOND ascensionist gets to set the grade for a route. The FA gets to name it and set a preliminary grade, but the SA can revise the grade if s/he sees fit. The article listed several routes that were initially "5.14" but were downgraded by seconds who found rests, better holds, etc.

Is this how it works at RRG?
