Yeah, we are going to try to get a couple more sites when I get down there Tuesday night. Clark and Ezra (you met him at Emerald Bay, the dude who kept waking me up that bears were in my rig) are already there.
We usually do some 'night ventures' after dinner too. Jumbo corridor or Conan's corridor are pretty cool at night.
Classic route 'Pictures at an Exhibition' is a must do, back side of Conan's.

Best regards

Dang, Those fightin' words Locker....Bailer ! :D If yo gonna be at the Tree and promise to take lynnie on a climb, I may put packin' and getting ready aside. Never realized so much to do before embarking on a Grand Adventure.
Cleo, sounds like you've been to Belgium.
I was wondering about winter climbing in Belgium. Got an invite from a super nice Belgium family, one of which is actually on the International Federation of Sport Climbing, to go to their Mega Gym with them. I'm psyched !!!! Peace and Joy, lynne
EDIT: The gym is in Breendonk and it's web site is www.BVKB.be They have indoor top rope and outdoor leading.

yeah, Dude, klk '''''what up ? IT'S THANKSGIVING. :D We all, all, all have so much to be joyfilled about. Yo, we have our loved ones, we have incredible friends especially around this campfire, Dude. We have roofs over our heads, and food (even varieties) and warm nice clothes and jobs and climbing gear and places to go and ADVENTURES to be opened and and made real to our hearts and minds.
Smiles Please. I too have had to work on many holidays. (Not anymore cause I drew a line in the sand.) But it will be good. Mayhap a person you run into will need just what you have to say to keep them going.....yo never know. Smiles, lynnie

Lynne,
you are the only one who will climb with me, and since you aren't going......
Jaybro hurt my feelings
Acopa sez another month until I get my shoes
Waiting on my resoles from Locker
I got a girlfriend now
Need to get boats ready for Xmas Parade of Lights
too old
too fat
too out of shape
too scared
not a real climber
threats from Supertopians to knock out my teeth, and all my guns are in the shop.
Etc. Etc.

You're a very good climber.
You are Not out of shape, fat or whatever.
You got the boat done last year in time.
Seems like several have the holiday blahs. Jess pack and go. When you get there you'll be glad you did. Smiles, lynne
