OK it looks like we're on! Some of you may have tried to contact me by my other tag (riotch), but that e-mail no longer exists. Try me on this one.

I'm proposing a costume contest. The only rule is that you must be climbing in-costume. Whoever submits the best photo of them climbing in-costume will win an as yet to be determined prize!


The weather has been sweet lately. Climbed 3 days last week, a little warm in the sun.

The current list:
Nature
Riotch
P. Envy
The Doctor
Manny
Two other folks from PHX
TheReverendPaganMonkeyBoy ?
PapaJoto

Any more takers???

C'mon folks, this IS prime season at the Creek (t*r, climbrunride, lynne, Piton Ron, Donini)
This is an open invite. Just e-mail myself or nature.

Sushi $30, camping free!

Hey Mike, right on, of course I remember you. Still looking for a Zion partner???

Lynne, Monticello is at the junction of Hwy 191 (old route 666, oooo, how appropriate) and Hwy 491. The event will be east of town about 6 miles.

Hey, maybe we could have a butt painting contest . . .

Hope ya'all can make it!

Anyone wants to hit the Creek again the weekend of Nov 14th, it'd be great to meet up then!

But if anyone is planning on going and wants sushi I need contributions. I have exactly zero dollars at this point going towards sushi/fish.

Not only is Doug broke, but he let me stay at his house this weekend.Needless to say I woke up Monday morning and decided to just hang at your crib and drink your beers. Sorry:(... A gal stopped by looking for you. She was pretty hot and we hit it off. Thanks Bro:) didn't know that came with the turf. Anyways I know you said you had a washer and dryer, but I couldn't find them. We put the sheets on your kitchen floor. Thanks again PE

You won't need a huge cooler. We're probably looking at 15 people eating sushi at the most.

Let's see if we can get a price list from them

I know I want a whole salmon again. We'll be eating that for days!

Very nice gestures were made towards Craig Luebben's daughter, Julia.

Below are the Big Bros, one set, with a likeness of Julia Luebben's face engraved upon them....
Auctioned to the mountain guides by Malcolm, proceeds to benefit Julia's college fund...

the winning bid, for Julia, topped out at $4000

Great photos and great times tarbuster. I can't believe that's the first time I've brought my road bike to Moab. Fantastic riding and we need to do more.

There's just something unforgettable about the sushi-down jacket, below freezing combo. WhooooHooooo! Somehow it actually... tastes better? Or was that the tequila talking? Whatever, I still have mud spattered all over the side of my truck from those exit moves.

brassnuts and philo, don't be forgetting to post up your pics of the "hand". I predict that they'll go down as ST classics.
