A while a go there was a wet Saturday and Mark was the first one to bail on us. Me, Seth and Silver got some good laps at RR meanwhile... oh wait, was it last Saturday? Lets hope the drizzle is not too much for Mark this time? I'm just messing with you. Donner hopefully will be fine for free, if not I'll have my aid rack and we can hit Star Wall for sure, i think Silver has some .13 projects there he was working on.

Sunday looks like a sunny day.

I want to take a crack at Deliverance on the Truckee this weekend.
What's the rack for that?

hey there all, say.... since i am not a climber, and not expecting to go out and meet folks to do so, i don't always set time to read these, until last... just wanted to say:

there's some nice notes in here and such, and interesting reads...

thanks for sharing...
and, say, have a great time climbing, when-and-if, for those
that are-and-do, get together out there...

god blesss...

So what are climbing plans for weekend? I can get out either on Saturday or Sunday. Looks like Sunday would be nice weather, but a little bit of rain won't hurt too.

Hey Silver, you forgot to tell Shack to bring his balls, and the bigger the better!

So what's the plan then for tomorrow? Should we just meet up at RR or somewhere in town? I used to meet my friend at 7 eleven store right on West McCarran and I-80, between Gas station and Arby's. Usually good place to meet for carpooling before leave town. Meet up at 12 or earlier and Silver will come to RR later at noon?

Shack is gonna kill it!

I'll take fourth ascent on DOT. No clipping bolts too, right? That's the name of the game.

Thanks Silver, I'm stoked to give it a go.

I'm gonna crush that 5 hour time...

by at least a minute or two. ;)

I'm trying to get ahold of B.Law to see if he wants to join.
So saturday is the plan?
Assembling the rack now.

That's the spirit Shack! I'll be there for you documenting every move on my HD camera. I got only 3 hours of footage available so you better move fast and no lunch break until you top it out.

But as Fox said no way will it atke me 5 hours to do this, after he belayed me for 5 hours. Well upon completion he asked me how long it took and i replied 5 hours. Fox is no slouche he has done some serious pitches and PPP and he did the JR. So hes got skills.

So I should bring a headlamp too, and maybe a porta-ledge! LOL!

So what time we are meeting tomorrow? Should we just call each other about 9 or 10 since it probably will be drizeling in the morning and I could really use some good sleep. Mark, you have my cell so just give me a call in the morning. Me and Shack probably could carpool to your place and go from there. Silver will join us around noon at the crag in case we leave early.

What Time are you guys gonna be here? 12ish?

I don't think he'll die, but a fall into that tree doesn't look like any phun. Can't he clip the 2nd bolt (only for pro) just so the climb isn't DFU? RXXR.....I would have done the route years ago if it was the 3rd pitch of something.I don't like my "Deck" pitches that spicy anymore, (or ever).

Anybody would like to go climbing Thursday at Donner about 4-5pm? I'm off at work around 3-4pm and with these temperatures it would be nice to visit Donner again.

Silver,

I let you off the hook this time, but you still owe me a deer steak and a nice fresh fat salmon now. Have fun in Boulder, looks like you have some greeting party there waiting for you.
