PortlandRobwrote: Yes; I wondered about the rhyming - but I recalled a song lyric about a '"moose with a loose caboose" which seemed to rhyme ok so I went with it. [Didn't realize that there might be a slightly unsavoury lower-bowel connection here.] I was sure it was from the B52s - and had come up with a clue about 'large birds flying out of Minot AFB' - but couldn't confirm the connection; and may well be wrong. 'Too much information' was simply because I thought it might be a total giveaway clue. Edit: A point of interest: I just reviewed my previous post and noticed that the "I earned 80K last year" example quote had vanished, leaving just an empty <>. No idea why. I reinstated it. |

Well that was indeed some clever (and intense!) cluing. Though I think perhaps you overestimate the aptitude of the group! Actually though, I (and probably others) just aren't used to seeing such deep thought and cryptology in this thread. I'm primed for the next one now though! Kudos. |

Climbing this may save you from Chorea. Or perhaps give it to you...? Best climbed on the 28th of June (or the 15th of June if you're old school). |

No one? I guess all the regulars here must be too busy chasing the primo December climbing conditions. |

St Vitus' Dance is correct. Yours again, Anthony! |

The filming of a scene in this Oscar nominated movie took place on this route. (Okay I think it actually took place on several adjacent routes so any of these routes would be accepted.) |

Were they on SS Ultrabrutal? I was living up there and climbing at index when all the filming was going on but can’t remember for sure. |

Typically a specific mode of transportation, a willing companion, and not being claustrophobic are necessary to gain membership; skip the hassle and hop on this sunny 5.10 multi-pitch. |
