发帖数: 69 | 1 The problem is the second day or third day of rains. Though the overhang
cliffs are protected from the rain, the moisture just got out from the
sandstone. I missed the chance to try on the classic cline Ro Shampoo
because of that. |

发帖数: 13580 | 10 1. the scene is unbeatable in an amazing area
2. good rock, moderate difficulty
3. tremendous exposure for adrenaline seekers
4. it's a whole alpine package involving hiking, scrambling, bush wacking,
steep snow climbing, rock climbing, and down climbing. it's nothing you will
ever experience at a crag. |

发帖数: 13580 | 12 it's really hard to compare alpine and cragging. it's like comparing apples

发帖数: 2636 | 13 Unfortunately that's the trend here in Michigan. Me and another two women in
their late 30s are the only "trad girls" here.
Many people thought I was crazy to do the 9-mile approach for Wind River,
and reasoned "if there are endless bolted climbs, why bother trad?" Red
River Gorge is becoming a zoo, and sometimes I can even smell the sweat
along the entire crag. |

发帖数: 13580 | 14 I have one too. It's on the heavy side but I use it for cragging only. One
small concern is that it's a little fat for Reverso 3. |

发帖数: 809 | 17 今年crag的课两种都教，不过好像已经倾向于Equalette了。
不复杂，Cordelettes虽然看起来简单，我觉得要调整的平衡比Equalette费时间，当然
可能因为我就没怎么practice。Equalette熟了很快，调整起来比较简单，我觉得哈。
两本书合起来形成的，前一本是讲单个的确保点，后一本是讲确保点系统。很详细，算
是类似领域的开山之作。
Equalette和Quad评价很高。这个Equalette目前在climb中使用的广泛程度到底如何？
实际弄起来还是有点复杂，要是pitch比较多后来大概会发昏，大家对这个是什么看法？ |
|
c*******r
发帖数: 13580 | 18 I don't know any good climber who does equalette a lot when they free climb,
including both your crag instructors. It just takes forever and it doesn't
equalize well anyway. It's something nice to learn and practice though.
If you can't find 3 good pieces to build a good anchor when you are free
climbing, you are certainly not climbing at the same level as I do and this
discussion is totally out of question.
法？ |

发帖数: 13580 | 21 If you end up doing multi pitch trad route, investing $30 on another device
is no big deal considerng how much you spend on the rack. ATC is the most
versatile device and I truely believe it should be on the rack of every
climber: alpine, cragger, or sport.
When I climb trad multi pitch, I exclusively belay with a petzl reverso 3,
and use autolock 90% of the time.
When I climb alpine rock, I always use an ATC.
When I climb at a sport crag, I usually bring an ATC and a Grigri.

Sunflower variation (5.9) and liked it. Use the gulley repel. Don't try to

身高体重都不重要，除了torso要fit，包的设计满足你的需求之外，

不知道你买包目的是啥，如果就是背着出去cragging，Jade 50我都嫌大。 |

There’s nothing better than going on a climbing trip. The opportunity to
travel is the greatest perk in any climber’s life. There is climbing in
every country on earth … just point to some place on the globe, and if you
’re a climber you automatically have a reason to go there. Think about it.
It’s pretty cool. (No, seriously, think about it. See? Pretty cool.)
I’d say 10 days is the minimum amount of time for a climbing trip to be “
worth it,” though I’v... 阅读全帖 |

A few requirements:
1. Very close to a decent ski resort and a climbing crag. For obvious
reasons.
2. Abundant hiking/running/biking nearby. Alpine climbing is not important.
3. Cheap housing price. So that I can retire early and not forced to work to
own a house there.
4. Close to a major university. So that my kids can go there and it's easy
for me to visit them.
5. Reasonable weather.
Things like Chinese resturant, are irrelavent to me and are not being

这个我可能夏天抓着个partner就爬了，不过也可以再陪你们爬。
这个我几年前follow过，印象中不难，最后可以走不runout的exit.
这个估计很难
这个我两都lead p1了，p2只有三十尺的样子，爬不爬无所谓了。
。。。这个能力范围。。看我今年能花多少时间爬了，很难说，去年新年愿望lead 5.7trad做到了，但是再往上感觉不容易，所以今年就没什么目标了；而且长的
multipitch trad不想push难度，尤其带着ld。 倒是希望能多练练sports leading和去joshua tree/smith rocks cragging。

发帖数: 2636 | 32 这也是我觉得获益匪浅的两本书。
我去年boulder比较多，数字也涨得很快，半年从V2到了V4-V5。代价就是我从2001－
2009年从来没有因为攀岩受过伤，所有的拉伤扭伤都是2010年boulder留下的手腕脚腕
手指伤。有一次是掉下来直接手指戳在垫子上，还有一次荡得太远，直接被甩到了硬的
地面。所以俺现在是俺家gg不给我spot就不boulder。
我们这里离最近的crag太远，来回13个小时（近的也有几个但太差没人去）。周围爬在
5.13级别的人都是一周3－5次在gym爬路线和抱石的。毕竟不是所有地方都像boston那
样爬起来那么方便的。 |

发帖数: 1203 | 33 后面很多人总结的都很好很全面啊。
我印象比较深刻的是没有注意不同石头的性质， 去陌生地方爬的时候用local crag的
经验套；我自己也是习惯了花岗岩的良好硬度和摩擦力，以后爬石灰岩一定要小心。
还有就是太信任cam太少用passive pro, 传统新手的通病吧。 |

发帖数: 13580 | 45 huh? you made some interesting assumptions. you left a piece of gear in a
crack and expect people not booty it? I'd be interested to know which crag

and not to pocket it.
Of course, unless you think it's the guy that you talked to who took the

Also, we will have more than one day for climbing. What other crags would
