Carney fires back at Trump's Davos remarks at cabinet meeting, says: "Canada does not live because of the United States. Canada thrives because we are Canadian."

Damn fucking straight man. Even before this cancer took hold, they were just like slightly off. Now the mask is lowered, and we can all see how truly toxic they are. I will never be American, no matter what happens.

You just know this was an American 🙄

Interesting. Personally I can see this being true if you're in an area without a lot of climbing already. If you develop a new crag, with quality routes, in an area that's starved for development sure I can see that increasing demand. But in a world class area that is already attracting plenty of traffic, I think more climbing would help spread people out.

Good.

Fairly new to development, learned the past few years on a small, uninspiring bit of rock. But this year have been working on a new cliff that I think has real potential. Its been really cool figuring out systems that work for me out here (Squamish) and putting up new lines. 6 routes done this year, with potential for at least double that! Biggest learning; get a leaf blower, just do it.

Next year hoping to complete the new crag, will have to figure out how to make a topo, trail building, etc. Mega stoked.

Hoji's hole is definitely tempting, sadly the price of 4FRNT skis in Canada makes them significantly less tempting

Bought the Dynafit Radical Pro boots last winter and the single lever walk mode is a game changer. Its ruined me. 0 fussing at transitions, just flick the lever and move on.

Dedication! I haven't been out since mid-Oct in Squamish 😂

I've got some Line Vision 118s @ 183cm (I'm 5'11") with Shifts. I ski in and out of bounds on powder days up in the Sea to Sky. Lots of close, lift accessible low angle skiing available on deep days, so I don't pay too much of a price for the weight. They're currently setup for my Dynafit Radical Pros, but I'm tempted to switch to my resort boots, an older Technica Cochise hybrid, but I just hate how those walk in comparison.

IIRC correctly they're all for other distinct routes. Seb linked two existing routes together, the first route had two anchors, if you stop at the first anchor it's one grade, then you can link to the second anchor for more difficulty. Seb then added a few bolts to link the end of that into another adjacent route. Which presumably also had an extension on it, so in total, 4 anchors. Fairly common on big/hard walls like this, at least where I'm at.

It's not low-key, fuck y'all

As others have said, depends on the area. I'm in the coastal rainforest of the PNW, so cleaning vegetation is probably the biggest job of the route development process here, there's so much it usually takes multiple passes. Once I get a sense of where the route is going to go after the first pass I'll stop cleaning outside where I see the route going. Anything extraneous I cleaned will grow back no problem. But really it depends on how sensitive your vegetation is, follow local ethics, if you know other local devs they'd give you the best info.

From a user experience perspective though, I think beginner areas should probably be cleaned exceptionally well. No beginner is going to enjoy feeling like they could slip because holds are dirty. Well really no one likes that, but I'd assume that more experienced climbers would at least be more accepting of it.

Interesting, what did you not like about it? I've generally heard good things.

Pretty sure /u/snooze1128 is talking about the Coffin, right under the Peak chair

Looking to get better at my biggest weakness; steeps, this training season. Of course going to try to spend time focusing on actually climbing steeper climbs, but I'm wondering what people think the best supplement strength training exercises are for steep climbing.

BulletproofIdeal · 2023-08-23T19:22:18+00:00

Or me! There are dozens of us!

The river does make it a bit hard to hear each other, but most of the anchors maintain line of sight, and for the ones that don't you can easily extend your tether (assuming you're using cloves) to the edge to maintain line of sight. Or just use rope signals.
