Coffee Can Pinnacle: A Good Mystery?

[Brad Young]

While on the topics of the routes out there, can you make the correction on Dilemma and have it describe the correct start?  Start on a small boulder then move up and left into the water streak instead of move right into the water streak.

I think you should go out and start the route from the correct point instead of having me have to go through all the work of changing a description.

If he can get the line clean - would it be okay if he claimed the FA credit for this one?  

Of course

Are we in backwards world? Brad takes the bait while clink abstains?
BOM brings up 57 meanings - none of which are appropriate for the situation.
Brad of Mud has to be what that knuckle-dragging last of the meanderthals meant.
No wonder Cro-Magnon man ate your liver.

It looks like the coffee can top has some lettering, but the photograph is not clear enough to show the lettering.  Were you able to figure out what the lettering on the top of the can said?

Barry Bates was here.

And tell them where the route name came from Mud....

[JC w KC redux]

clink dialed me in on BOM but I won't repeat it here.
I know how much Brad likes to tell that story.
I couldn't believe it went straight over our heads.

What makes you think I didn't get it?    After all, I guess I am it (damn daughters). But still the "Eat S@#$ and Die" post seemed to fit.

[clink]

That's probably the least enthusiastic selfie I've ever seen.

 We did abandon Brad, or was it leave him to his own devices(thang). Possibly it was the difficulty of suppressing jealousy after spying Climberdude doing a FA somewhere in the background and without him. Brad, it's going to be OK.

 JC, word on the street is that you look sharp and handsome with a goatee. I decided not to stretch it to sexy and debonair and keep it more believable.

Well for me it was because I wanted to boulder the line. The dilemma was to TR, bolt, or just do it the right way.

By "our" I meant me and the Tuff Chik.
The ESAD should have been a clue but my density still prevented me from realizing what should have been obvious.

Well for me it was because I wanted to boulder the line. The dilemma was to TR, bolt, or just do it the right way.

I remember the discussion starting because there was no way to stance bolt that line (which you felt was the right/only way to bolt a new route out there - in honor of Jack Holmgren who'd stance bolted almost everything else in the area).

The dilemma was therefore whether to leave it as a toprope or bolt it on lead using aid (thereby violating what you thought was right). Honoring Jack won.

(But you started in the wrong place, thereby making my description wrong    )

[clink]

Hmmmmn.

[mynameismud]

It should go as a boulder problem, starting from the right, then moving up and left into the water streak.  
 
Unfortunately, I am not sure if I can ever get fit enough to even think of something like that again.   Working out 5 days a week burning over 500 calories per session and cannot get below 170.  Almost as frustrating as not bouldering out that line years ago.  Should be very possible with a few crash pads.  It is only 5.10.  Where are the hard people?

Muscle weighs more than fat. Go by how you feel and how your clothes fit - chuck the scale.
I saw you do some pretty hard stuff without much effort after you made it sound like you couldn't climb harder than 5.7.
You could probably do it right now 

Hard people? Are they related to Pad people?

[mynameismud]

I think there is a possibility I might be climbing fairly solid 5.7 at the moment.   Some Pad people are hard.

Here's the Bing Translator results for "I might be climbing fairly solid 5.7 at the moment":

I'm clearly pulling 5.10b/c without realizing I'm climbing 5.10. But I want to climb 5.11d, old skool, not that ninny crap new wave rating horseshit designed for weaksauces and limp noodles. Limp noodles are for Pho, not climbing. DIE
