Hope to meet you someday...
...oh wait, I did meet you, and it was cool. We had a nice chat.
That Quaalude must be kicking in.
Ryan is one of the awesome young Squamish crew that make this forum better.

Ryan is wise!
He knows were to go
and how to get it done
rain sleet or snow he will still be smiling
He uses Old Spice
His crew is way fun they also get it done
bloody elbows
bad backs
still smiling
blaze
fly by the seat of your pants
walk the earth
be humble
be free
smile
thats the Ryan I know
Edit: Happy Fukcin New Year Buddy See you soon

Thanks to you Gregg, you're the man!
So many rad people here that i've met or interacted with over the past few years. Can't believe it really, cheers to you all. Such an incredible wealth of hi quality humans hanging out here. Cheers. Anytime any of ya's are in Squamish feel free to reach out.
Wayno, looking forward to next time.
Would still love to meet Tami & Ghost someday too.
Hamie, Glenn- we are all so lite & just standing on your shoulders. Thanks for making the pathways that we still walk today.
Biotch, I'm glad you understand my sense of humor.
Post up a photo so we can appreciate you with a face in case we see you out there sometime.
I'm reluctant to out myself like that as staying elusive is a great way to avoid life's lineups, but I'll play along. Turns out I don't have many selfies so this will have to do for now. Definitely not taken recently :-)
Don't worry tho micronut I'll recognize u for sure!
Edited to add- thanks for the pic neebee, it worked just great ;-)

Ok this ones better.
Edit- no idea how or why they let me have a doobie in my trap while getting my pass photo taken?!?!? Regardless I did mange to do a decent job growing into those eyebrows since.
Edit- thanks Mike & Capt! Like I said not one for the selfies, not against em' just never take em'! Brandon, look into a pardon. It would be great to see u up here sometime!

I met him at Mammoth Octoberfest. Solid guy. If I remember correctly he even bought me a shot of Rumpleminze. Course it was Rumpleminze,so I probably don't remember correctly. ;-) Happy New Years bro!!! Sorry I missed ya last time.

That's a horrible representation Ryan. ;)
Here's a much better one.
Ryand, a friend to many with many friends. A good man, who is genuinely concerned for man, and beast.
An excellent climber, whose not too cool to hang out with his cripple friend and put up a few 10's for him, or take a run up nutcracker and battle euro's for the pass, so he can make his plane in Reno later that evening. ;)
Of all the reasons i enjoy contributing to this site, and photos and stories, the best is the amazing people i've met because of it. Thanks Ryan, from being a great friend.

I hope to hang with you Canadians someday.
Good folks, it seems.
I just need to convince Canada to let me in. I mean really, a DUI fifteen years ago? I learned my lesson and haven't had a traffic infraction since! Sheesh!

Don't you know anything Ryan? If you wear a beanie while climbing you can't have a shirt on.

Thanks Brandon. I have a couple friends with that problem too. I guess you need a pardon on both sides, which can be expensive. You got any lawyer friends? ;)
When are you going to the valley with Michelle?

Next fall, I need time to get back to my fighting weight.
I feel like I can talk border guards into letting me in, but flying might be an issue. It sucks paying for stupid mistakes, but I guess that's what punishment entails. Haha, all positivity, no negative!

That's what I once was relic, at least until male pattern baldness squared off with me.
Thanks again for all the kind words people.

I like RyanD because he always posts positive comments and has a good view on climbing. Hope we will get to climb the Rostrum when he comes to CA, if he doesn't have a solid partner!
All the best to you in 2014. Health, happiness and lots of fun climbs!

Justin, hahaha that's awesome! Did u used to live here?!? How come we haven't met??
Vitaliy, I'd love to climb with u someday, I think we're on the same page in a lot of ways when it comes to climbing & I think you would be a solid partner.
Same for you BK, you would make a great spotter :-)
Hi Harry! Thanks, have a happy NY! All the best to you and your family.
Edit- it's all good donini, thanks. Bruce and I are both inside a mysterious lo pressure system that currently has 100% humidity & 96% sarcasm index. Thanks again everyone, happy NY!
