It's sad when people as educated as yourself resort to 6th grade measures.

I dare you to pull my pigtails.

Look, critics will always be with us.
The actions of the RRGCC speak for themselves. The fact that we all climb regularly on the PMRP is indisputable and good. Do not be disheartened by naysaying naybobs of negativism. What you have done is enough. Critics will come and go.

on an only moderately related note, i have a super beefy/borderline indestructible 11mm poly startic line about 250' long that i'm not using right now if any of you generous but undersupported FAists out there wanna use it. after blowing all of my savings the last couple of years on new routes I know well what a thankless, expensive habit it can be.

back on topic, thanks for all you've done for the Red and I really hope you come back to us, Wes!

Thought the same thing.

Wesley Allen... Wesley Mouch... hmmm... Could it be a coincidence?

True, but I found humor in you quoting and displaying it again. I figured that if Wes wanted to judge others based on his views it is only fair to return the favor. Besides, it’s pretty pathetic that people jump on his pity party to help with his insecurities.

and I thought that you were partaking in reductio ad absurdum, silly me.

same here.........actually enjoying climbing again because of it

Happy to hear that you guys are enjoying climbing, that is why we do it. Pigsteak, I personally think that is a good policy. I have always loved the routes you put up, so I hope to have a chance to do them someday

Secondly, Wes could open this route up to full development, and there are truly only 2-3 of us who who sacrifice a weekend to bolt it..the rest of you salivating dogs want to get the send, the points, and the spray without the sacrifice.

I guess I am a salivating dog when it comes to new routes, sorry but I get excited. If it is not bolted by the next time I come down (most likely next march), I will happily finish it off. Lets see, anchors already in and only needs four bolts. There will be no weekend sacrificed, just a couple hours.

and here I thought you were all sweet and innocent

man, wasn't trying to bust chops chriss.....but this fall, I was rjackson bolt his first sport line at choco...I was giving him all the old crusty beta on how peopel will literally throw a rope bag under you as yourap to the ground after bolting if you let them...

just like clockwork, russ had not been down two minutes and some dude walked over and asked what the new route was..russ was eating, so I offered that it had just been bolted, and that russ was taking a rest. the dude says "no worries, I'll just wait here until he sends it"....

rjackson, am I lying ?

You're not lying, I was there too.
Russ sure eats slow. I couldn't wait to get on that thing!

lol...see, I even forgot that jeff! thx for letting me know my memory is intact....

like good buddies, jeff and I sent rjackson's route while he took a nap...he never knew.
