I was feeling a little self conscious about my first post, I wanted it to be a banger...
I didn't realize that you could track these things, but then again you are "Big Mike" of supertopo fame.

WOW! This brings back memories galore.
One that stands out was, riding my RD350 in the snow and parking it in the back hallway of 12 E.4th!!
Endless talking heads. Randy sweating up the place on his air cycling trainer. Two fridges and no dishwasher!!
Oh ya and climbing, always climbing.
And I discovered Wine, Woman and Money!
Who knew one could make more than $157.00 a month by working!

IMHO if you call yourself a rock climber you should hike yer rack up to Sloan and do one of the south face routes - SE Butt 1 pitch 5.4 plus scrambling, SW Butt 5 p 5.8 or South Central 7 p, 5.9. The rock is super good.

The NE ridge is good too but it's an unroped scramble. Good for moving fast (12 hr return from Squampton including the drive), not so much if looking for actual climbing.

The direct headwall midway up on South Central has some nice X cracks that would give a 20 m 5.10 pitch. Bring a couple red-yellow camalots. or some blues for the S crack to the right.

So what is the current connection between the Coastal climbers and the interior Rockies people ?

We climb their ice in the winter, they climb our granite in the summer, and in spring and fall we all play hacky sac in the Skaha parking lot.

Please don't post any more good stuff here!
