hey there all, say, aldude... dont know you, but sure appreciate all the climbers here...
say, dave, thanks for this quote--helps me learn:
Bump, for an un-repeated Al Dude and Gerberding route on the 'White Fang' 5.10X, IV, 9 pitches on loose rock, often runout with poor protection and only 3 belay bolts.
nice pics, too...
happy appreciation thread to you!
:)

Wow ....this thread has legs*
powderdan : You & Dave should hook up and send The Fang - maybe winter would be a good time - all that sandy dolomite might be frozen - bring some ice tools and snargs. That was the only time I ever wore a hard hat - took significant hits on the dome!!
Andy : We jammed quite a bit @ Strawberry too with Cash on the trap set. Talking Heads and Richard Thompson ect... you are a true campfire frontman.That pic is fom the european tour I did last summer with Tribe After Tribe - "african acid rock"
Shout out to the Neebs !!
Coz : 30 years ago ?! As I remember 4 hrs car to car! Got to be some kinda record - as Yerian would say " there's only a few of us left,man " heh heh..
A final image from yesterday - name that route ??
