PDs at Lode

[Meadows]

Michelle has expressed to me that she would like some kind of video conferencing option for the next meeting for the people who would like to attend but cannot.

If the facility does not offer it, it's easy to do through Skyping if someone has an account and a webcam on his/her laptop. I do, but finals are coming and those take priorty.

Given my faux pas on the last meeting, I will be more attentive this time. Rough semester.

[pigsteak]

so who from the crew is actually staying here thru the winter to monitor the situation?

[Clevis Hitch]

I'm still here. In fact I'll always be here. as for those other guys, they spend more time climbing in the gorge on accident than you do on purpose...

to ya!

[pigsteak]

lol..perhaps..just looked back and I have logged 82 days in the gorge this year...that's pretty close to what those dudes do I am guessing.

so is the answer they all left (or are leaving) except you?

[ynp1]

Weekend warriors, log 104 days a year.

If you spend the fall and spring, and you only spend 2 month a season (I think that's a low guess) you are there for 120 days...

I think your wrong.

[pigsteak]

thats 82 climbing days dooooood. how many of their 120 are on the rock...geesh, am I really debating this issue with you?

come to think of it, zero days of mine were spent pulling draws. about 25-30 were spent putting up new routes (around 20 new ones this year I believe). let's just call it even.

[ynp1]

OK.

[jimmy]

I just looked back at my records, and my dog logged 75 days so far in 2011, just counting days at the Gorge. Congrats, pigsteak....you've got Astro beat by a few days. Time to step up your game, Astro...

[Clevis Hitch]

my highest days in the gorge per year was 270 climbing days. Thats actual climbing days, not rest days. This year not so much, domestic bliss and young ones have kept my numbers down this year but I promise you that I'll be spending way more time climbing this coming year. Besides 2012 is the last year of record on the calender so "game ON!"

Besides, you only bolt because you've no friends to belay you

[ynp1]

1012 is the last year??? We have blown by that, by 1000 years!

So I donated a good bit of $$ for perma-draws at the lode. Do I get the draws the I paid for? Kinda sucks to shovel out some dough then have someone yank them...I can hang the draws on my project there, so it doesn't really effect me, but still I think it sort of sucks - its a regression if anything, but if Dario doesn't want as many people climbing at the cliff, then that is his decision.

[pigsteak]

Again no draws were stolen. All PDs are still intact at the Lode. Project draws are another story.

So just to keep things straight let's all say who we are. Because there has been some mis-information about peoples identities. I'm Joe. Some people know me as Kentucky Joe. Who are you?
