I, for one, and in full support of climbing tawk, especially since I cannot climb right now.
I've only climbed at Shelf Road once; was not super impressed, although I had a tendon injury at the time, and that was the first time that I had a rattlesnake fall on my head. Still, I would climb there in a second if it meant shirtless spurt in January; that's pretty rad.
Have ewe climbed at Penitente yet? From the pics on MP, and what I've heard from Manderson, it looks awesome.

I managed to find another leader to come with this weekend. At the ratio is now only two non-leader per leader. I'm still going to push for the two people just trying out ice climbing to have another car there so they can leave early.

So, just heard from Tony (Kinetic Tony, not Big Tony, Tony Sartin, or Tony Soprano) about another of our gym members getting injured. This is the third in so many months, after my meatbombz, and another guy's falling off the top of a Coopers Rock H-eyeball.
Anyway, the story: there's a local Columbus guy named Andy Politz, whom I've not met, but is apparently a pretty badass Himalayan nature hiker; he's one of Viesteurs's main partners, has done Everest, etc. There's a whole crew of OSU mountaineering club helmet at the gym-type gumbies who cup the balls of the ground he walks on. He makes a living by charging them all a lot of money to go hiking with him.
Anyway, I guess that recently, he was guiding a charity climb for disabled vets or something on Mt. Washington, and an avalanche hit them and almost killed a bunch of the grupe. I guess that everyone lived, but Andy and his son are injured. A guy from our gym, who is a photographer, was on the trip, too, and is injured, but not sure how bad.
Ugh.

who from K got hurt? (or text me.)
I know the route they were on because that's the way me and gheyexbf went up mt washington when it rained for the entire 11 days we were in NH. the part that they were ice climbing was a waterfall in our case.
sounds like a shitty deal all around, though.

This is a preemptive strike against the risk of future dance tawk. In this case, I am quite willing to negotiate with the lesser of our enemies.
