I was taking video while driving. Just turned it off to save battery. Packing up now. Will turn it back on when I'm close to the base to save battery. Never done this before so no idea how long batteries last and such...please chime in on here and I'll check in to keep convo going. I was hoping to check the chat on upstream but it eats too much bandwidth.

On a serious note I'm not that funny of a guy so please help keep the entertainment going on here

Hmm....do those work on old lady parts? I could use a jump start this morning, for sure!

Lessee....in the meantime, should I work on my remodel project so I can watch paint dry, or stare out the window and watch the lawn die?

Just saw the hike in!

Do you know why they won’t let you post anymore?  Seems strange.

The fate of the Free World is in this man’s hands.  This mission requires particular focus, and I suspect that our Mountain Project elders understand this and are doing their part to ensure success.

So true!  

Following closely with my kiddo so he can see how awesome climbing the flatirons is and how important it is not to leave any of my cams behind.

Nice.  Way to make this a learning moment :)

This is great! Thanks, sir, I have no idea why, but it's truly fascinating!

That thing is awfully fixed! Will he be successful?

Zip tie the trigger bar to the thumb loop and work the cam heads individually dog, if ya cant get zip ties on use your claw to put a sling around trigger bars and lean back on it to put pressure on

Did he get it?!  I'm driving across Iowa and have spotty 4g..  I just saw him holding a cam in his hand- was that it?

He got it!! Excalibur has been drawn from the rock..  That was some skill, that thing was JAMMED..

Well done!

Old lady H · · Boise, ID · Joined Aug 2015 · Points: 1,375

Yay!

So, for this noob trad follower, what are the tricks for getting a cam out that has the trigger entirely in a crack? Small stuff, I mean? Two nut tools??

Best, OLH

Anybody got a replay?
We did a few laps on the First and sattelites this AM - bummed we missed the action. Cool cloud inversion today though!
