In reply to: Howie Richardson, Aug 88 The off-width. If you need help finding or figuring out this one you should probably take up football. Two each of #4 Friends, #5 Camalots provides sport like overkill, but done first on hexentrics and tubes This is on Page 65 on the newest 'Skaha Rock Climbs' Guide ^^^^So, if you have BIG gear, please mind to bring some for my project here :P 8^) POST UP!

When is the long weekend? is that this upcoming weekend? I'm flying into Vernon on Friday morning and desperately want to get down to Skaha for two days of fun. I don't think I'll have a car, but I do have a # 4 and # 5 camalot :shock: If no one is passing through vernon willing to pick up a fellow climber then I might just try and cab it or greyhound it or hitchhike. I think it's only a couple hours away tops. I'm going to pick up a guide book tomorrow as it's my first time there. Am i correct that there is camping available at the crags? I'm solo, any other climbers out there need a partner for this Fri/Sat?

the long weekend is the 3rd weekend in may, i believe it's around the 20th. most people camp at waterworld....6 bucks a night. It is very close to the crags. if you ccan make it there, you will be guaranteed a ride to the climbing.

Emilie and I will be in. Same with Grant (darkside). None of us will be able to leave before 5 o'clock on Friday. I'm not sure if Grant is working evening shift, which would put him coming in on Saturday. Grant will have his three big bros with him Do we need reservations for Waterworld?

In reply to: If you are interested in becoming an ASSHOLE, chances are you already are one! :P Actually I AM an ASSHOLE but not that big of one, i gave up my shift at the gym, because it's me ma's birthday on the 21st. as much of an asshole that I am, I'm not that big of one, since I promised ma that we'd go kayaking down the toby river from Invermere to Radium on Sunday.
