No one commenting here knows what went on.
Tony "i'm assuming" just makes you an ass.
No government offical that wants to keep their job would comment here.
Surprised Jesse even posted once on the other thread. Not a good call.
These threads of ranger bashing and speculation are a waste of their time for sure.

Someday, somehow, someone needs to rap that route with a super, high-pressure washer and REALLY blast it clean. 50+ years and thousands of ascents means plenty of bowel movemets, piss, vomit, blood, semen (it does get lonely up there...), food, beer, tampons, and everything else we climbers seem to "forget" along the way.

The Government has spoken. No BASE in Yosemite.
"jesse, i'm afraid i see you playing good cop to some bad cops. it would be refreshing to see some engagement of the BASE community by the NPS, discussion of behavior, park concerns, and some working towards resolution of an issue which probably won't be going away. without some forthright handling of this matter, we'll be looking forward to the escalation of a keystone cops comedy--except that more tasering could well make it a tragedy."

You're in the wrong fuking thread dude.
Get with it man.
You ain't got a fuking clue either by posting in this thread and ragging on Jesse who hasn't got anything to do with your problem.
Now git your ass over there and do your bitching there .....

Eye witness studies have shown that they are rarely reliable.
Even when witnesses see the exact same thing, their stories are different on the stand.
In the heat of the moment with split second reactions...............

Good job Jesse! Glad you did what you did. And sad that other did what they did and that you had to clean it all up.

Stick it Werner
Tell the same to Tony.
I definitely didn't attack Jesse.
Stick it Weld.
I was talking about Tony's thread hijacking fool.

you won't find any of my sh#t at camp V1...i always wear diapers when i climb or ski...i'm usually having too much fun to stop and grit one out in the bog...as for cleaning the captain , i think a dc-10 fire-fighter with a load of water would be a much more efficient was of flushing the nose...rj

thanks Jesse and Sam for doing a really nasty job...
I recall at the Face Lift history both that anything over 50 years old is "historic" and since the FA of the Nose was over 50 years ago, do you have to leave the last little bit of stuff at Camp VI? (I think that's a rhetorical question)...
Looking forward to seeing you guys at the FaceLift

Another amazing Yosar rescue pulled off flawlessly, kudos!
Also, Jesse and Sam should get a medal for the Camp 6 project..above and beyond the call. Thank you.

So they dig up a petrified turd from the FA party and display it in Kens museum?

i didn't attack jesse, i challenged him. he's a public servant. i have every right to raise an issue like this.
we've had two long discussion threads groping in the dark about what really happened, and there has been no NPS statement either about the tasering or what's so bad about BASE jumping in yosemite.
tasering is an affront to the sacred ground of yosemite. it can be a humane device in extreme circumstances and should be reserved for that. i am angered to see law enforcement using it as a tool of intimidation. a good officer knows how to engage people. a good administrator might figure out a better way of dealing with the local interest in BASE.
and if camp 6 has become such a damn pigsty, why isn't it a major project for facelift? i frankly don't think it should be the rangers' job to be doing that for climbers. cleaning up after ourselves used to be part of our ethic.
whoops--i owe jesse a word of apology here--i didn't realize he had posted on one of the mcneely threads--he did so yesterday and i missed it and wouldn't have raised the issue here if i had known that. his response there was entirely appropriate to the situation and it's appreciated.
jesse said it isn't appropriate for him to be involved in this case at this time, and that's understood. however it appears that the link to official documents isn't working well, and i would ask that the NPS consider making a statement about what happened. as i stated previously in that same thread, official press releases are common in unusual cases and this would appear to warrant it.
