Nope. Critters are feasting on it right now. We are shopping for a new rope just in case.

fuggers! Caught a rat in my wife's newly planted sage yesterday. Little whore rodent, sick and outside our house too! Better than inside.

Please donate your old cord to the BAF.

Bay area Fixers.

We treat varmin with respect, offer our food, don't pee on them etc...

In return, they don't go all fat kid on the birthday cake in regards to our fixed lines.

What color, size, age is the donation cord?  I want to inform our members and possibly get it on the roster very soon.

Anybody ever seen this? It is a super-dense "growth" of pine in another tree. I am not sure if the growth is even the same type of tree.

Weird, right?

[NateD]

Quite bizarre indeed, John. Haven't seen or taken note of that anywhere before.

This is on the 4th pitch of Escher's. 



*FYI - A reminder that the guidebook has a couple of notations on this climb that would cause trouble if followed. One of them regards the 4th pitch. Take the path of least resistance when you come to the blank face pictured in this section, rather than following the guidebook's advice to not follow the easy ramp left. The most protectable path is to follow the easy ramp left, place more pro there, then launch onto the face to gain the next pro in the crack above.

Check out this little bastard!
He jumped out for a minute when we drove up and then went right back in. We drove right up to the can and laid down the horn, he looks up and goes right back to munching! Kept honking, kept eating. Gave up after a while since he ended up totally ignoring us.

lol, awesome bear!


bummer about the trash being all trashdangled.

[YETI]

Whoa!
 
That dumpster was empty on friday night!

Cool bear sighting!

That bear may not survive hunting season.

Killing a bear in soyo does not sound very sporting.
