The honest truth is that with friends like all of you, I'll keep climbing at Pinns until I can't climb any more. We'll see where that gets me  ;)

Is this where the "DIE" context comes from?

just saw this...sounds like a party...

who is going from Santa Cruz?  wondering if I bike down there, if I could coordinate and send my harness, shoes, gear, beer up w someone and throw my bike in the car/truck for a ride back?   or whether someone can take my car, fully loaded?

also, wondering how to find everyone, once I'm there....

feliz año nuevo...

Joe, harass Chrizzoni into going.

IIRC, 8;30ish trailhead.

Head toward High Peaks from West Side.

Brad said near Tuff Dome, isn't that more easily approached from the East side?  biking to the east is more viable....

asked Chris before I knew about this event, he said surfs up and he's not feeling the crud, I'll try him again...

That poor Chriz guy. All mixed up with conflicted priorities. I will pray for his soul. :)

Haven't done the mileages but West Side parking is what I heard.






PS - anyone climbing Sunday want to work on FAs?

Which one F4?

If you give me clear directions to it, with pics, I'll be sure to know what to "avoid."

I'm really glad you're doing it!

And don't forget to bring an extra mug for Gavin (I assume that some are left?). Hike it up there since he'll come from, and return to, the East Side.

The National Weather Service thinks that tomorrow is going to be a good day at Pinns. This is the prediction with their location pipper right on the High Peaks:

Saturday - Mostly sunny, with a high near 67. Light south wind.

Early congratulations to Brad on the milestone. I will not be there tomorrow, but Mud carries the weight for both of us.

I've put the case of remaining mugs in his car. One has Gavin's name on it. Munge, since you guys are carpooling, can you remind him to make sure the case goes with him whichever vehicle you go in? You know, sometimes, he can be a little absent minded. (He just walked by and saw what I was typing and protested, "you don't need to tell him to remind me. Geepers. No faith."  Oh... that reminded me... "Hey, honey, did you pack your climbing shoes? Yeah? Both of them?")

Inch by inch, I will get there.
