That diagram looks like someones mom after she shaves.

fuck you tunica intomyrectum.

its suck my balls if your nasty

I am going to kick mcrib's ass next time i see that midget.

I'm thinking about moving the bolts on Fuzzy Undercling so it finshes on Tissue Tiger. I think it'd be more fun that way

Someone pointed out this weekend that I took down this gallery and people were psyched on it, so I re-uploaded it (or it will be in the next 20 minutes)

Thanks Dan!!

I probably have no business getting involved, since I'll never be good enough to climb this, but...I've always thought scary clips were an important part of the Gorge experience--in fact, part of the whole southern climbing mentality. I don't want grid bolting. I don't want to have a clip every three feet and to feel "safe". Especially at the higher grades. The first 12 I ever tried was Lurk's fine slab route (I hate slab): Straghtedge. Tim Powers (who can climb 12's all day long) ran up the arete and put a toprope on it (sorry to out you Tim). This baffled me. Until I took a ride on it. There's a clip that would be fine if you were 6' 6" and had an ape index of +6, but is a little sketchy for us mere mortals. When I came back and led it, I was scared shitless. For first time in my climbing career, which included a few "R" trad routes.

I cursed Lurk and his bolting skills.

And I wouldn't trade that climbing experience for the world....

If it were me, I would not have put it at 14c on my 8a, but whatever skipping the crux made the route...but if he can live with himself, that's his perogative.

Um, poser, what exactly are you trying to say? I am not sure if I should feel insulted or flattered.
Straight Edge is a good route (with impeccable bolt placements).
