Neil and Joel had been appearing in the "Articles from the Jeep" thread and others, but after Thanksgiving they headed to Patagonia...looks like they are having a BLAST!

What's with all the pix of rocks in some weird place filled with foreigners?
Get with the program or stfu.
Post something opinionated about politics or religion or guns or modern science-- anything, so long as it's a topic you know nothing about.
Kaufman? What kind of a name is that anyway? Probably foreign. Or Jewish. Or worse.
Probably all a buncha pinkos. Why when I first got to JTree . . . . . . . . . .

From the blog's caption: visible snow/ice alone is 1000m of climbing (that's El Cap).
This shot of the Supercanaleta reminds me of an Italian climber I met in Frey. Memory is kind of fuzzy, and his English wasn't all there, but what I recall: Three seasons earlier he and his partner were a good way up the route, considering bailing while hanging together on their anchor in bad wx when the anchor failed, piece by piece in quick succession. He lived, partner didn't make it. The season I met him he'd come back to Patagonia to try the Super again, but on arrival detoured to Frey instead.
Dim memory also says they'd had to climb over the frozen and inextricable corpse of a climber who'd fallen long before on that route? True, bad memory, or climber's legend? Can't say for sure.

Now that's pretty damn funny, but I'm wondering what actually makes a crack "so Jewish." I climb with a bunch of Jews - always have for that matter - and not Gabe, nor Matthew, nor yet Mort have any idea what a "so Jewish" crack might look like.
It sure sounds funny, though.

Wedge what are you in school for? Wait let me guess...nursing. God I'm an idiot. Nursing is the perfect climber job. I should have done it years ago.
I'm in school to teach, in the face of declining enrollment and state cuts. I've always been kind of dumb and bull headed, that's why I'm always broke.
PK- The reason people don't post on this thread is that we are all insanely jealous. Politics? Even when you are totally screwed the powers that be innundate you with that nonesense.
I read through these guy's site. It's awesome. Someday maybe.
Thanks for posting that last photo by the way, I've been wondering how Cerro torre ties in with that Fitzroy. That photo shows where everything is.

is it my imagination or is there a lot more good weather in patagonia than back in the early 1980s? or are there so many more climbers now that someone is guarantted to have good windows, so that's mostly what we hear about?
