Of course, we all know no one is stupid enough to use that rope for anything resembling real climbing. However, if you want to continue anyway, I'd suggest using this way I've linked below to achieve death faster. The only downside I can see if that it's a bitch to sew yer own harness.

Everything looked truck to me.

Just think of the money he could make if he put all his ideas in a book and sold it.

I'd be first in line for that book. To think of the money I could have saved making my own gear.

Priceless. Thanks Bill.

Well played.
!!
Creativity lacking...like hangdogging and claiming to complete a route a partner led. [facepalm]

What do you suggest we do with such a stupid thread?
The highjack is working well, I say we suffer through it and continue the route. Sly

The problem is I want to get my 5k...

And I don't give a shit about wanktards who want to die.
What do we get by hitting 5K? Is there a gift pack with, say...a recycled bag of used chalk having a toothpaste consistency and smelling of dirty feet?

I become a better climber
Is it automatic? I'm really weak right now, and would like to climb 5.15; especially if I can progress to that level doing nothing more than posting on the interwebs. Angelic

You really need to question this? I thought it was the whole reason for RC.

I haven't been misled, have I?
I hope we are being led correctly, but with my meager post count total I can't be sure.

This quote CF is quite amusing.

Are those 20 foot contour intervals?

No doubt. I can't believe I missed this, too.

A true classic.

"I don't know much about mountain climbing or anything like that but...my logic is if you can't get down, you probably can't get back up. So be really careful about where you rappel."
