I most certainly wouldn't have thought to write on the photo the name of the photographer. Who cares anyway?
I would Hamish. I always credit the photo unless it's mine. Even ones taken with my camera but by others than me. That being said i wouldn't be offended if someone posted my pic but did credit me.
Dean did post saying that he would change the credits but then erased that one and most of the rest of his posts. He also kind of credited Bruce in one photo which is how i knew it was his.
No need to get all uptight about it and I read into it that Bruce was joking too but maybe it was taken a little harshly.
I would really like to see some of the rest of Bruce's secret stash of awesome photos and would love to see some of Peder's.
Andy thank you for all your contributions on this thread, I hope you dig out some older stuff too..
Jim B I'm hoping you do make good on your promise and find some time to dig out the old pics.. Lemme know if you need some color correcting help.
Peter C- Nice to hear from you again, I would love to hear any stories you have to contribute. I know posting isn't really your thing. Excellent piece on the Innate Blog though.

This isn't a Squamish picture, but it's not that far away, and the rock up above was dry and warm, even if our shoes did fill up with snow on the approach.
And yes, I took the picture, and I have signed model releases from the rock and the moss.
But none of you can go there unless you leave your cameras at home.

O.K., you guys are right. It is a big deal who took which picture. But that aside, it was a harmless mistake, heavy on the harmless.

Sounds right up my alley.. now to work on my 5.11 skills :)

Agreed. Too bad really. Hopefully Dean will come back.

Hey Tami, who's more albatross Big Mike Or Dean? Could we wrap them in twine, glue, paper mache and fly them across Howe Sound to access the cliffs over there?
Speaking of which, you older farts ever journey across Howe Sound to the rocks we all gander at? Pics?

Good point Tami. edit- not your above post but the thing about the
Squiggly things!
Especially the sarcasm part!
Sarcasm seems to be a common theme amongst all generations of squamish climbers
& ingrained into Squamish climbing much the same way that
Moss scrubbing & chainsaws are. A good thing IMO, keeps it fun:-)

I don't think there has been a taller climber at Squish then Big Mike. All the others are 6'4" or shorter. Some of us A LOT shorter
We don't know that for sure, there could be some 7 foot giant out body stemming "Tall Skinny People" as we speak ;)

Yoga?? Oh man, you gotta get yourself a bike.
And instead of telling him to grow up, how bout a simple apology?
Like Jim said, we're Canadian.

The 7 feet, the Hand Jive, and the trouble-with-words thing prompts me to ask about a line in the McLane guide from 2005:
"Make a 7 1/2 foot dyno down into Java Jive (13a)."
I can't see the body language that goes with that.

It's still not too late Bruce. That sport is much more suited for you than you think. Huge Sorca gear/bike swap today at Pac-West. If you have any money left over after paying all those people to show up at the meeting the other night, bring it on down.

Hamish I am sure you are as elite a mtn biker as you were a climber which is why I am not going to be trying to keep up to you on the trails. This bikram yoga is an easy way to help deal with my present sinus health problem. That and a smart Doctor which seems to be in short supply up north. I am too sick to climb is the situation here.
Dean is more than welcome to repost everything and more with captions and credits. He doesn't need to apologise, but he does need to buy scanner and start scanning. Maybe I could send a couple of my inter-dimensional Sasquatch pals over to help with the computer work.
If I seemed nasty it's because I am fairly ill and have been so for too long.

The 7 1/2 foot dyno is on Teabag Tango, one of many Andrew Boyd routes.

hmm... still no Mention of Teabag Tango have I found in the 2005 Mclane guide. Andy does yours include the Lower Malamute climbs within the rail right of way boundary? mine does not.. were there two printings?
Anders- Do you remember that Luke asked you about "The Unhappy Hooker" awhile back? Have you any memories of that FA with Robin Barley? If in fact KM is correct and you were in on that one.

Mike, my quote is from page 260 under Java Jive, where Teabag Tango is described.
And yes, my guide includes the Lower Malemute, though not the off-limits climbs like Clean Crack.
