Feb 28, 2017 Matt, can't do this Friday, thanks for asking. Kristyn, given the snow falling today, I think Thursday will be the better weather day. Maybe next time and thanks for replyi… View Message

Feb 27, 2017 Anyone able to meet up Weds or Thurs at Shelf? Weather looks pretty nice. If you can get to the Springs, I'll drive from here! View Message

Feb 26, 2017 I might be available if the weather doesn't look to bad. Let me know. View Message

Dec 6, 2016 Cool. I learned to climb in the area and love the granite. The best was when you could drive to Svens Slab and no one was around. When I left in 2011, the area was so renova… View Message

Nov 29, 2016 "Seriously... why are so many people on this whiny bitchy drone rant." Maybe because it's: narcissistic, self-absorbed, jackasses that fly them? And what could be worse, is… View Message

Nov 29, 2016 Please, please don't. No better way to ruin ones outdoor experience than with a bunch of drones buzzing around. (especially not while your pumped and cruxing...) View Message

Nov 24, 2016 Have almost a full rack of hexes and never use them. They are for sale. Metolius. I never learned to lay one properly. When I took the AMC lead climbing course, we had to "… View Message

Nov 11, 2016 Andy, forget what Bill is saying. Even if he is right, c'mon, what are they gonna do, kick you off MP? Wait there for you and fine you? Beat you up? Ban you from all BLM la… View Message

Nov 6, 2016 Thanks to the 4-5 people who responded either here or via PM. Appreciate you reaching out and hopefully we get to climb together soon. View Message

Oct 30, 2016 So, out of the 3 people I've tried to connect with on here, 1 panned out. Tom, you're cool! The other 2, ultimately flaked. If anyone is available to climb mid-week at Shelf… View Message

Oct 24, 2016 Anyone able to meet up at Shelf this W, R, or F? I lead up to 9's and catch at any grade. View Message

Oct 12, 2016 Anyone interested in climbing out at Elevenmile this Saturday the 15th? Probably one of the last few weekends to climb there before Shelf becomes my winter destination. View Message

Oct 7, 2016 For 10 years I have washed my ropes the same way: Laundromat, front-end industrial washer. Usually $2.50 in quarters and no soap or anything, just water. They come out 30 mi… View Message

Aug 27, 2016 For sure. Don't mind the "splitty" at all. Skinning is skinning. I've got 4 huts booked already but probably have partners (Polar Star, Janets, Broome, Markley). I'm lookin… View Message

Jul 27, 2016 I'm addicted to hut trips here in CO. I've only visited 4 of them since moving here, but I intend to visit all of them in the next few years. If you wanted a partner for any… View Message

Jun 6, 2016 Hey Colin, I'd love to join you but I am scheduled to attempt Grand in July. I've heard various reports about conditions and wondered if you'd mind sending me your thoughts a… View Message

Mar 12, 2016 12 years of use and I love mine. Don't use them all the time but bring them all the time. I tend to use them as one piece in a 3 point anchor. Usually, it seems they fit… View Message

Mar 8, 2016 Are you going in on the standard route? View Message

Feb 26, 2016 Dang Greg, those look great. I like the simplistic look. Any chance you sell them or give directions on how to make? View Message

Feb 22, 2016 Anyone interested in meeting up at Shelf for some climbing? Weather looks to be perfect. I am in Colorado Springs and can drive if in town or coming from the North. Jon View Message

Feb 9, 2016 Hey Lee, I might be able to meet up that day. I'll email you my info and let's see if we can connect. Jon View Message

Feb 8, 2016 Both days look to have amazing weather. I can drive from Colorado Springs if someone up north comes down. Let me know... Jon View Message

Feb 7, 2016 Hey Miles, Didn't see the post until today. My wife and I were out there yesterday and would have met up with you. I go to Shelf about 2 Xs a week so if you ever want to mee… View Message

Jan 27, 2016 Hi there, I am in the Springs and like to hit Shelf this time of year. I usually wait until April before I climb Splatte, Eleven-mile, etc. Check my tick-list and see if… View Message

Jan 22, 2016 Norman, not to bust chops, but you trad lead 5.10d and you are worried about this? Makes no sense. I can't trad lead 5.10d and I've travelled all over and your suggestion for… View Message

Jan 11, 2016 I just confirmed, if by tomorrow, you meant Tuesday, yes, I can meet up. Jon PM me if you can meet and I'll shoot you my number. View Message

Jan 11, 2016 Let me check to see if I can make Tuesday. If I can, I'll let you know because as of now, no one has contacted me about the 13th. Also, slight change in plans: I can't lea… View Message

Jan 9, 2016 Weather looks great so let's pull on sharp limestone with south facing walls! Let me know if interested. Jon View Message

Jan 5, 2016 Thanks for the responses. Based on some of the things I read, it sounds like May or early Fall could be a better time of year from a weather perspective. View Message

Jan 5, 2016 I checked for previous reports and am not trying to create a discussion fight, but it looks like there is a closure every year for this area around June. It also looks like it… View Message
