Looking for a partner for Escalante Canyon Saturday the 21st and ½+ of Sunday the 22nd. I prefer the obscure/adventure stuff which may include a rough approach, starts through the Chinley, wide cracks, and dirty and lose rock.

Oops - off by a week. Edited for the correct weekend.

You need to work on your sales pitch Kent ;)

You're right Dana.

I should have added that I'm an old man who gets up early, farts, and drinks too much.

he forgot to mention that if you start laybacking you get penalty slack :)

Had my introduction to Escalante a few weeks back at Zappa Wall. Found the climbing to be sufficiently hard. My wrist gobies just finished healing.

I see that while I was out climbing and having fun there was an internet love fest in my honor.

Over the weekend I did an especially fun pitch in a great position with unusual moves. To help open your eyes, I’m offering a $50 prize for the first person to do a clean lead of this climb for the (probable) second ascent. The climb isn’t even very difficult, just memorable. The offer expires May 21, 2012. Restrictions apply. See me for details.

Bummer had I known there were going to be FA to be had I may hav gone with u instead of waiting in line for supercrack in da creek.

No takers yet on the challenge - how bad could it be?

Still open for partners, this weekend (27th - 29th) and future.

Smelly old man, but packs good seafood.
