Very astute!

That cave is so steep you'd never bolt it on rappel. Those routes went in ground up. On most tall, steep routes in Maple, they go in ground up.

Did you guys meet the two dog miniumum for the Pipe Dream cave?

When's the new guidebook coming out?

Ha ha.

Nice shots!

*sigh* The kind of climb that I (and my "physique") will never, ever manage to start.

Nice pics!

I will never be a "real" climber until I get a dog and bring it with me to the crag. :lol8: I met Darren today and he said the guidbook is close... ha, hasn't he been saying that for the last few years?
