Trip Report
A Montana Gathering....TRs, pics, etc.

My less than comprehensive reporting of the Batholith Bash '08 is thus:
The morning of Friday the 13th, the kids and I drove the 20 minute approach from Butte to secure our chosen campsite. The previous few days left the Continental Divide area with 3-6" of fresh wet snow. This proved fortunate because it dissuaded various AV user groups from nabbing all of the good camp location. No pictures here, as I did not want to depress the weather preceding the event.
TKingsbury arrived around 2:00 pm to relieve me, as the kids and I had a date in Missoula for water splash fun and to pick up Tarbuster. All was successful.
Some tents set up with the clear, sunny weather settled in.
Campfire topoing.
The band Archer's Mob warming up. Auditory redendings of Hippy-fusion-bluegrass--most enjoyable.
A unplugged late-nite fire session.
Band break.
Whatch doin', Tarbuster ?
The 9700w generator's noise was easily suppressed by mass crash-padding and the vehicle in front of it.
With everybody gone out climbing, the kids and I camp-chilled until some Bozeman folk showed up to sample the stone.
Ladies day.
Pat starting up a classic Fantasia crack route.
Getting into the thin-finger laybacking section.
Nearing the top.
More to follow from myself and others as Bashers return to their homes and 'puters.
edit: About 35ish people made the gathering the first weekend counting the band.
Topoans included:
Tarbuster
Mojede4
Kingsbury Brothers
Hard Rock
Liz R
Unimog
Extremecat
Scott Cole
others ?

Just arrived home. Wow is there ever some kick butt rock in Butte. I only took a few photos over three days so here is a tour and tease.Dom and Tom in the kitchen.
Scott Cole warming up on a pebble.
Kurt, father of a lot of the areas routes, still can get it.
Go Scott go.
Those silly Kingsbury boys working out the feet.
Some slabby footwork that was impressive.
And Pat's squeeze chimney was pretty good, too.
So in the afternoon of Day 1 we warmed down to a bouldering session until dark. Here is some of the approach to the biggest boudering areas I've ever been to. Saturday was I believe 17 hours of climbing. Nice warm up.
And that lazer cut crack we've seen posted before is sure fun. Everyone had to get on it and even had a couple near traffic jams.
Assembly line type sends became the most effecient. This was Day one. Warm up day. Stellar weather, great rock, and the best people I could have run into. More to come later. If you missed it, you missed a lot. I will try to post more later as I still have to unpack and cook some chow for the Mrs. that so graciously allows me to squander our life savings on these little camping trips.
Bob, one of the most gratefull climbers in Mt.

Nice pics fellas!
Scott- I think you must of moved your first pic, so the address needs to be updated on the post. I can see the second two on here.
So I'm back in Bozeman for a restday. I know, I said I'd be vacationing out there for the whole time, but the allure of a bed, showers, and relaxing was too much for me. I'm also dumping pics from the first half, so here is a bit of the happenings...
I took alot of the day 1 pics on Dom's camera, so those are yet to be downloaded...
An evening session out in the Aspens...
Laps on a fun crack...
Tarbuster styles the Onion Slab
Relaxed Sunday morning at the Queen...
Archer's Mob played into the night...
Tarbuster, Scott Cole, Dom, and Cody discussing the finer points of life...
Mojede on steak duty...many steaks were served...
Unimog(hidden), Hard Rock, Mojede and xtremecat
We were hoping to have some sushi by Nature, but Albertsons ended up coming through...
911 Crack
As Pat eyed up the last section I ran outta battery life(DOH!) so xtremecat tagged me up his camera for the ending section...look for those later...
Chris on a Fantasia boulder...
We then spied a roof crack that struck Pat's interest...
It's ~15' to the lip...
the kick though...
Before I knew it, Pat pulled the lip and we were all smiles. Very smooth effort from the brother. Nice job Pat.
After a couple beers, I left Pat in good company and headed back for some rest. They are still out there cranking down...I'm headed back in the early AM to jump back in...maybe I'll see you there...
Cheers,
Tom

Ok then. Beetle kill it is. Here are some shots of sunday, seven of us went to the Humbug Spires and did the Wedge. We broke up into three different teams and went up via three routes.
The Wedge looking at it from the notch to the north.
And from the bottom looking up.
Some really good and cool rock with awesome views at every belay.
Oh yea, it is mandatory to have dogs to climb in Butte.
How can you be here and not smile.
Probably the best top out in Montana.
And who could that be doing the chimney pitch of the "Old Aid Route" with a red Trango helmet on???Someone famous? Maybe from a Trango ad?
A mandatory debreifing before heading back to camp.
These are shots of Pat on the 911 crack on Monday. Burly lieback and tips to fingerlocks. Awesome effort. Third pic was taken by "Tom" so give him the credit. Notice it contains a pinkie mono.
That's all the time for downloading pics today so until next year. By the way Tom I've burnt you a disk of everything, just e-mail me your info and it's yours. Liz might want some of the stuff too. I'm sure some of the Pat action shots are good also.
Enjoy.

Nice pics Bob! Glad to see some pics from y'alls day in the Humbugs...I'll send you my info when I get back in 'home' mode...I gotta head back out now though...
It's the beetle kill that you're seeing in those shots. The Butte area has been hit pretty hard unfortunately.
Just wanted to add that it's been great meeting all you folks so far. A super good time for sure. Well time to saddle up and head out. You folks take er easy

Scuffy, the least amount of people bedding down in camp throughout the event has been 6 (counting my two kids), and the most about about two dozen.
The weather has been uber-good with clear, starry, moon-filled nights.

Some camp shots--until the climbers return from the day.
Lyddie was motivated to make her own drum kit after watching the band.
Wednesday's fire group roasting micro-mallows.
Ladd seems to be shy and grumpy in the morning.
Tom, showing Lyddie and us the finer points of Hula-hooping.
His show-piece move.
More from the event as it continues to develop.....
edit: Was that the dog of Hard Rock's that ate Pat's entire dark chocolate bar, or the one that ran away as the rigs were runnin' and getting ready to head out to the 'Bugs ? :-)

Friday was a strange day--the Kingsbury bros got "lost" on the way following the gang to Roof Rock, and we didn't get to regroup until about 2 in the afternoon. Only time was lost, of which we had plenty, so without further adieu we ventured to the Bourbon Crag area--a small outcrop of unclimbed granite.
Liz on the Hidden Slammer Crack, just off Delmoe Road by the lake.
Katie on the same problem.
The event co-ordinators perched above the function's acreage.
Dom exploring some new territory.
Liz and Katie joining us on the summit of the pebble heap.
L and K playing on a side of the heap.
Dom, finishing out the day's climbing on a crack pebble.

Well I returned back to the Bozone on Sunday to find out that the party received some press:
though they got the dates wrong...heh
The mid week was a bit quiet, but visitors appeared daily/nightly for midweek sessions. Pat, Dom and Liz hung out for the duration...
It was pretty chill, a good vacation. It was really good meeting and climbing with all the different folks, and great just to be in the batholith for an extended period. I felt like I got to know the area a bit better, and was able to explore some of the areas had just previously dabbled in.
It helped that Mojede and the real Mojede were cooking up some really fine cuisine. Lots of steaks & ribs, and great breakfasts too...pretty deluxe to roll out of bed and have Mojede all motivated on the cooking scene. Dom & Liz had it on lockdown too. Liz's banana pancakes are AWESOME!
The surf & turf:
Camp Caroline:
A fair amount of shots that were taken that day by a buddy B-Hayes, including some of a really fun, thin corner...hopefully I round up those shots and post them up soon...keep an eye out for the bumpage...
Some bouldering from out there...
we also messed around on this thing...turned out to be hard!
Bourbon Crag:
Humped up the hill to check this thing out(see Mojede's pics too), good to mess around at, but I'm not too sure I'd return...Camp Caroline is a keeper though...
This route was pretty cool though:
Dominic on four no four...
[img]http://img370.imageshack.us/img370/4843/img3370smpp3.jpg/img]
We then returned to Fantasia...Dom wanted a go at the Hyperspace Roof
Pat took these ones...
We also checked out a new line potential...it's cool, but hard in that flaring sort of way...
That's all for now...I still need to get the shots from Dom and from Hayes, so keep an eye out for those...
Good times though folks.
If you made it, I'm glad you did!
If you missed out, maybe we can do this thing again next year!
If you're can't wait till then, you know where to find us!
Cheers and many many thanks,
Tom
Goatboy EDIT:
We didn't get down to those areas Erik...the first Saturday we hit the East Tracks(which is nearby) and it was pretty warm that low on the pass...decided to hold off on those...

Nice to hear, Jaybro. That photo took place the next day after the band played. The drummer had left a used pair of sticks lying around camp (maybe for the kids?). After I showed them to Lyddie, she started banging on things, eventually ending up at the water bottles and coolers. She would count out 1234 really fast (Ramones style) and try to keep that beat going, but it wasn't working. I told her to go 1-2-1-2-3-4 and then wail away.
After a few minutes, she looked around, got up, and said, "I need a chair."
She grabbed a little cooler, sat back down, and had a good 15 minutes of fun there.
It put a warm fuzzy on me. :-)

Of course You, of all people know, how beyond cool that is, Moj! Cheers!
A related aside; myself and my daughter's mom, took said offspring to a Ramone's concert (it was outside, (Mesa, Az) no eardrums were destroyed) when she was 10 months old. She loved it! She could barely stand, but she was shouting and bobbing her head in an age aproppriate way. May explain her penchant for black T-shirts and jeans today, 18 years later. My ex and I find various things to disagree (actually not that many, all things considered)about, But all three of us seem to be in agreement that that that night was one of our collective, better moments!

Nice tales there Jay and Hutch! Made me smile for sure.
Mojede - more routes were done at the Camp Caroline too.
-3 routes similar to Practice Chimney at the Queen. Fun, solid, cruisers.
-5.8 hand crack on the upper buttress
-5.6 flake on the upper buttress
-Caroline's Corner (5.10) Thin crack/corner thing in the hallway of the lower buttress(pics soon, I hope)
-5.7 hand crack on backside of the lower buttress
I guess that's 7 more new routes...we should go back there though, there are 4 or 5 more that I wouldn't mind going back for...plus that TR project.
I rounded up some more pics. I was using Dom's camera for the first day, since I spaced bringing my own...so here's some coverage from the first Saturday:
Roy and Scott getting the blood flowing on the Mastodon boulder...
Meg going for it on Recoil
Scott on the same
Roy pushing it to the top for the FKA
We then trucked over to King & Queen, for some more bouldering and routes...
Pat getting his Super Squeeze on...
Roy hikes a classic...
after that we ended up hitting the camp for some beers, and went out for an evening session...which is where my initial coverage started...Man, what a great day(s)...
Sunshine, sunshine, it's fine
I feel it in my skin, warming up my mind,
Sometimes you gotta give in to win,
I love the days when it shines,
whoa let it shine

Jaybro, here's another Lyddie tale from the Bash:
Lyddie likes gum, plain and simple, yet Molly and I try to curb her intake as much as possible--usually reserving it for a bribe. At the camp fire sat Tom, Pat, Dom, Liz, Katie and myself chillin' on a weeknight. Lyddie was pimpin' the crowd for candy, but alas, none was to be found. I mouthed to Katie, "You got any gum?" to which she nodded "Yes".
Pieces were distributed to most of the crowd when Liz and Tom came up with the game of "Quiet". The rules were simple, if you talked you had to forfeit your gum. Lyddie has the will of a statue when she wants to and did not under any circumstance want to give up her precious gum. She was not letting anybody trick her.
As the chatting amongst the non-chewers continued, Lyddie tapped Katie on the leg and pointed to her own gam. Katie looked down at Lyddie's leg to see a burning ember on her fleece pants right on top of her thigh. Apparently, the pine logs burning in the fire spit out an ember the size of a BB and started to burn into the fleece wear. Not wanting to lose her gum, Lyddie reckoned that she should alert someone (without talking) to alleviate the situation.
My words to Lyddie were along the lines of, "Lyddie, in THIS game, and any other time, when you are on FIRE, it is OK to talk or tell someone."
She had no mark on her leg, and I realized how deep the will of this child ran.

A common practice of hers when first attending a new class is to check the scene out visually, join the group and/or follow the directions given, then look over at me and whisper, "You can go now, Dad."
I have yet to peek in without her seeing me, and when "her time" is over, it's back to being my daughter.
Molly and I came across a blurb proffering that a parents' role is being stewards (ital.) for their offspring--a pretty sound direction in our view, if only we can pull it off (in every way possible). :-)
