I only recognize a few of the people in the photo, and it's before my time. But somewhere I have some messages from people in the photo as to who's there. For $20 I'll fish them out.

What was the issue with Borderline and that certain special someone we all know? It is a very good route.
Thanks for providing us an easy, fast, non-dirty, non-grovel access to the Badge. Philistine Groove was so gross. No offence Perry ;)

A few DAYS on Ten Years After? Which leisure class at either end of the spectrum do you inhabit?
Aesthetic pics but kinda random.

Fish Boy, are you the same person who soloed much of Ten Years After during the summer of 2010, up to about the top of the Sword? The one I sent a photo to? Either way, did you go all the way to Dance Platform?
Three days for soloing TYA in mid-October seems reasonable to me.

MH it seems that you are on for $20-. It's like taking a case of beer from a baby. Should I feel guilty?
LOL [licking of lips]

SAC: Yeah top of the left side...maybe Grinning Weasel?
Tami, you can just click the link and look at the photos, you don't need to be my friend!
Jim, yup, that's me.
Kid, cheers for the holler!
MH2, 2nd time aid soloing, first wall at Squish and I have no job so no need to hurry. Carting ledges and bags off Bellygood takes more than a few minutes. Since moving here a couple of months ago I've enjoyed 25 pitch days and 2 pitch days....
Nope MH, not me...yes, all the way....
While you're all here, anyone know much about Negro Lesbian? Don't want a beta run down, just haven't heard much about it...

Thanks gf. Three fixed pieces on the first expanding pitch, one on the second one. The rusty stuff on that route is a bit nasty, in particular those tiny rivets at the start of 6 I think....

Looks like Mike B. and I cut over to Grand for the 5th belay, which likely now doesn't exist on account of I am sure the entire bolt ladder being replaced on that section of grandwall. So that explains the lack of fixed belay at the end of the 5th on 10yrs after during your ascent Fish Boy .... sketchy ...
Well done dude !!

Why are there two bolts beside the [very determined] climber's knee, in the first pic? Two separate routes?

Yes, Hamish, the bolts are on different routes. We are looking at Richard Suddaby on Pleasant Pheasant (from the far left end of Pet Wall using a zoom lens). The unclipped bolt is on Crosstrainer.
The second photo is Jim Sandford at the top of No Name Road, again with zoom but now looking the other way from the vicinity of Flingus Cling.
The third photo I think is Hamish Frasier, taken as he arrived under the Squamish Buttress 10c pitch.
The fourth photo I don't know the guy's name but I used to see him at the Edge climbing gym in North Van. He was trying to keep up with Hamish.
