You 'all Know Whut Tah Do Here,
Just Follow The Master,
(Part Way Evun)
Yah, That's It.
Been Testin' Yer Mettle On The Lumpy Bumps?
Let's See It!
Here's my long term proj:
It's ambitious I know,
Well, Ludicrous really.
(don't try this at home).
But I'm gonnah, by hook, crook, or hidden wires,
Match up my played out carcass to some pictured positions which Gill Proved and Portrayed.
And this'l be tuff, cuz 'most my strings already done been plucked!
So here goes...
Note how far up Gill is off his right arm compared to the Poseur Postur Tarbousier;
oh well, that's how it's going to be going, at best...
So, once again Taco Bro's & Sistas, let's see yer dangdest
Attempts and triumphs on whatever proud pebbles happin' to be nearby...

No bould'rin thread would be complete without a pic of Bob Kamps at Stoney. Too bad this is the only one I have!
One of the things I miss the most about moving away from LA is Stoney & the crew of fun (and hard!) climbers. You can visit
The Stoney Point Bouldering Website
for more fine pictures of hard boys & girls by Brooks Ayola.
Here is one in particular that I like from that site, just 'cause it captures one of the essential parts of bouldering, which is silly competition with friends. I mean, look, Craig isn't even 2 inches off the ground, and everyone's totally focused on him!
It generally starts out like this:
Me: Hey, check this out! Can you do this?
You: I can totally do that, and look, I've added another heinous move.
Her: Oh yeah? Well I can do that, add a move, and not even use that "giant" hold which is obviously "off".
Him: What are you guys doing? Oh man, I did that problem in the Jurassic Era. Footholds weren't even invented yet and I was in EB's bein' chased by dinosaurs....

Hi Roy, just back from driving on the plains and it looks like a foot of snow up your way this morning.
Here’s a few old dads in various locales.
The incomparable Dick Shockley at Woodson.
HoMahn, we were walking up the Woodson road one day after a big rain, see, when this huge boulder fell onto Dick, pinning him to the road…
Graham at the Calanques, 1976.
Mark Wilford at Horsetooth, Colorado, 1978. My future wife, Gerry, observing next to ?
John Bachar on yet another highball near Estes Park, Colorado, spotted by Pat Ament, 1978.

I have heard that the largest granite batholith in the world is exposed on the surface in the Lochsa/Selway/ MF of clearwater area. (read it on placematt) I suspect there is a motherlode somewhere in those sticks.

Hey, Roy--
What amazed me about the Acrobatic Overhang was how poor the landing was. You had to basically flash the problem or bones would be showing if you pitched off past the big reach up and left--and it ain't over then, neither. I was there (circa 1975) with a bunch of local Boulder guys and none of them would go for it. Impressive for 1960--or now, for that matter.

The only bone I have showing for Acrobat Overhang is the one in my pants!
I get to that intermediate crimp I have latched in my photo, then I quietly descend, tip toe back down through the large lopsy topsy boulders inconveniently lacing the landing...

A running tally of 3 out of 4 of my generations progeny have summited; Hannah is only 4 but sez she's gonna be a climber when she grows up.
My sister in law who has never ever climbed an inch wanted to climb it with us last summer. She's tough (had to take a year off college to sew baby clothes in exile, after getting arrested in the Tianamen square debacle among other things)and if ever someone could do it with no experience, it might be her. I felt bad advising against it.
On the rappels Natalie and I talked about it;
"This was so much fun, are we bad to have discouraged Meng?"me spoke.
"She had no idea what this is like, dad. If somebody made me climb it when I had no experience, with the exposure, learning to trust the ropes, rapeeling for the first time and everything... I would have resented the whole thing and never wanted to climb again."
How did my kid get so smart?
But I suspect Meng will get up there one of these trips. Although she won't go to the local gym to learn. "That's not the real stuff!"

Small but important point - those shoes are not Kendos. They are the other stiffer Sportivas from the time that had a small black collar around the ankle area. I can't remember their name, but they in no way were the equals of the mighty Kendo, one of the best faces climbing shoes ever.

hey 426 this last picture i was told by a local boulderer is called the "fred meyer wall" and the boulder that requires 4wd or a 4 stroke is the "cheesey boulder" just wondering if this is correct?

Hey Goat,
Dint' you recently post up a pic, pointing to the HH, of a sorta thin gal makin' a big reach from an undercling?
I was looking for that; it was a stunning wingspan sort of move.

Blowbarder, nice McL shots... haven't been there for an age and a day. I still remember when Phil introduced me, a total stranger he met at Skaha, to the area. "Yeah, you gotta check it out... here it is! Just, uh, don't tell anyone else!"

Or at least don't post directions on the intardnet. Pictures are cool tho, plus enthusiastic "That place f'n rocks!!!" are always good to hear.
But go climbing up there for sure, it needs more locals, most of us have moved somewhere with an economy and local redneck rampaging has resulted in some vandalism.
Plus some as#@&%e's been trying to trap cougars and bobcats in one of the caves, using dead beavers and fish as bait. F*#kers gonna end up in a shallow hole if he's not careful.
Bolts are still taboo, and as we buy up more of the remaining private land holding cliffs, will hopefully remain that way.

A little place in the central hills way off the beaten path with some really great stone. I have been climbing up there for over 10 years and have rearely seen anyone except a few motorcyclists. I call it Estes Creek and it has a huge concentration of of classic easy boulder problems in the v0-v2 range.

BVB!
This thread was started in the bad old days of supertopo when we used to laugh for days on end!
For example, I quote you:
oooooo tarbaby, you gone and done it now.
when i get home i am gonna so crush this thread the fish will have an entirely new bvb-inspired definition of "vanity" to work with, and anyone foolish enough to attempt the download without a broadband hookup burning a minimum of 1.5Mbps is gonna smoke their computer...
and in the beginning, there was.....bvb. too swole for words.
cue theme music: "i am sooo beautiful, to meeee....."
And Beebs, sorry, a bunch of your links are broken. Best dip back into your archive and re-throw down a bunch of Swole random stuff, especially that Flagstaff era. Get cracking Buster!
