also, break down lead bolts by

from hook
from stance
from other type of aid
from dependent slung knob

No lists!!!  This ain't McCarthy Red Scare!  ;)

But if I see my lead bolts, I usually remember whether I had to actually hang off the hook, as opposed to just using it as a back up.  The terror seems to inscribe itself on my dendrites.

My jockey and I will be there. Which East Side parking lot? And I apologize in advance for being a bit selfish with helping hump gear out, but most of my load limit's already accounted for.

With Noal on this on this. Look what happened to baseball stats. "He was the first  lefty, peppermint gum chewing, breach birth, shortstop with  less than 2 weeks of stubble, to double with a 12 mile/hr NW wind, and to hit a 420 plus footer out of this park, bouncing twice then ricocheting off a Ford, breaking the windshield of the opposing teams bus."
Causing trouble when not climbing.

Thank goodness KC told me about this little soiree.

No one in their right mind would wade thru this crud to find the worthwhile nugget.

See you in da AM!

Seems like a tomorrow might be the Mud n Crud event of the year. I'd love to join. Is there anyone who I can catch a ride with from Santa Cruz?

Sorry Atom - we have a full vehicle.

We got a lot done today.

The route I worked on today needs one more bolt. I'll get on that first thing and it should be ready in less than an hour.

Brad's is ready to go.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get a few more lines going.

Fair point Brad, Gavin has to have the record. Seeing how he has the shortest commute.


I'd be tempted were I to get a ride.

Adam, ask Joe if you can ride on his handle bars.

I'll be passing Santa Cruz on my way, and would be happy to give you a ride. But, full disclosure, I have to be home by 4, so I'll be leaving the fun around 1:30.

Edit: I emailed you my cell number.

Shane - the uppermost lot which will probably be full by 8:30.

If anyone misses the group, the crag is about 100 yards past the cutoff for The Hand.
There is a confluence of streams just before you start up toward Knuckle Ridge - stay left toward Spasm Block.
The water was way up today. Trail past the res is flooded but easy to skirt up and around on social trails.

Sweet. We were hoping you'd be coming out.

That was quite a day yesterday (actually the last 2 days).
My right calf is so tight today from stancing one-legged for 3 bolts that I am hobbling around.
At least it waited a day to get painful.
I'm a bit put out that it only sprinkled .02 over night and now it's sunny!
Looks like another good day to be out there.
