I've read these over the years and always get a good laugh. Here's a few, some from an old story in 'Ascent' written by Dick Shockley

Cruise or Bruise
Succeed or Bleed
Top or Chop
Summit or Plummet
Make hast or tomato paste
Finger locks or cedar box
Consummate skills or heavy bills
Climb in style or fly a mile
Unravel the mystery or soon become history
Endurance or Insurance
Keep your head or Hospital bed
Lunge or plunge
get the knack or face a smack
Underclings or Angel Wings
Nail the seam or giant scream

a couple of new ones....

Don't know Knots, Tie lots
Smoke pot, check knot

one more I remember....
Edging skills or Hospital bills

Anybody have any new ones??

Peel and squeal.

(Technique requires ripping skins off skis while skis are still on feet. Snow on glue face is bad form.)


When hands are bleak,
spread your feet.


Where to go?
Turn your toe.

Climb much higher
and meet the choir

Bird on a wire
or funeral pyre

Flash the route
or point is moot

Find your groove
and make that move

Take some slack
and jam that crack

Flame out on a crack
Break your mother's back

Gored by a rhino
or fire the dyno

SMILES FOR MILES!!


If it was first climbed by Kamps,
You're gonna' get cramps,



It is put up by Long, At least,?
You will need Bongs,
it could be a beast. .
