Used to love surfing on rainy days & climbing on sunny ones when I was living in NC. Moved to FoCo in 2012. No more surfing. Recent [estimated] downgrade to lead/follow grades b/c rusty & outta shape. Hopefully I'll get back in the swing of things soon.

This...

"Okay, I've been thinking about it.
Old custom: wait for a quick summer shower to wash the n00bs off the rock like coal dust from a miner's ball sack, then race up the route gathering all bail gear in a frenzied gear grab.
New custom: n00bs get washed off the rock like aforementioned ball dust, go home, then post up which route and what market value of said gear was. This will save a lot of surveillance time for more experienced climbers, fully maximizing their booty banditry. Everybody wins!"

...is hilarious! I'm keeping this strategy for summer at Ship.
