Too much stuff? I ain’t never had too much stuff!
Racking and packing for Sea of Dreams…note the #5 plastic jar full of canned fruit…real bright idea as it turned to whisky after a couple of days. Note Dale stirring the PB with a parking lot stick!
Classic Bridwell induced belay anchors…several popped out during the night, but the tunes were good!
Guy Thompson and the floating circus on P.O. 3rd ascent…we basically brought enough to get through a semester of big-wall college.
Racking for Moose’s Tooth…we brought so much stuff that the bush pilot, Sonny Stitt, had me sit next to an open door on the Cessna 185 with the big red pig ready to jettison just in case we couldn’t clear the trees at the end of the airstrip…no scales, just good ‘ol American ingenuity.

Michael's naked guys picture makes me think there should be a separate photo thread called "too much skin!" I'd sure like to see it, and probably lots of the other Taco Belles would too....
Double D - Those are wonderful photos. Even aside from the climbing - Look at that vintage bus in pristine shape!

Offensive photos on display further down.
The pictures are from Greenland, and the amount of exposed flesh made mosquito history. When I rewinded the camera my friends fought a loosing battle!

Okay, I found a few.
Heavy racks lead to the death by hammer.
I REALLY need four pair of shoes, a bolt kit AND a 12V battery for the tunes!
We're taking all this crap?

There is something about being on lake Mead with all your closest friends, a full bar, foam machine, dancing cage, hot tub, water trampoline, seven jet skis, and a full DJ set up. We just don't sleep much on those trips.

Wow! Let's see some more Sea of Dreams FA photos!
El Cap summit after Bermuda Dunes - 4th ascent
Wee-Wee, Tom and I replaced a bunch of old rusty 1/4-inchers
Tom next to his 9-inch and 12-inch Valley Giant cams
Too much stuff? No worries for me - I just leave it for my partner. Kate finishes cleaning one of my pitches on the Ranch - in the dark.

I swear those Swedish dudes look like the Allman Bros.
Duane was none too happy about the theme of this shoot.
Look at the stank eye he is giving the photographer.

We racked at the base, climbed, and then de-racked at the summit.
It somehow seemed logical that if we arranged our stuff JUST RIGHT, it would weigh less on the way back down to the car.
Either that, or we wanted to procrastinate and waste time, delaying the inevitable East Ledges descent.
