The problem is that I suffer from a rare medical condition called "Climber's Dyslexia". This condition is defined as '...having difficulty differentiating...
I hear "no your other left" a lot in the gym. It's not just said for beginners either. My memories of being a beginner were someone would suggest I do ...
Hey folks, I just got back from a weekend at Seneca. We did Simple J and West Pole on Sat. And then did Ecstasy Jr. and Breakneck on Sunday. This post...
you can traverse across/down to the rap station (open shuts?) at the top of breakneck direct....possibly by not going to the top of the cockscombe- i did this...
By Breakneck Direct, do you mean Broken Neck? Or is there a climb between the two? I found the shuts on top of Broken Neck (there seems to be an old set of...
yes, broken neck. Don't have the guide in the office.... The down climb is easy - maybe 5.5 but my recollecion is not much gear (wide crack?) and exposed....
Also, rather amusingly I was also at Seneca on Sunday and walking past the Triple S area about 3pm I saw a party on Breakneck, standing in an unusual place -...
I haven't climbed in about 5 years but would like to get started again. Would like to hook up with some beginner friendly climbing trips/activities. I climbed...
Hey, welcome to the group. I don't climb at any of those gyms, but other people here may. I don't personally go to the PATC Carderock Wednesdays these days...
we've got a monday/wednesday (more or less) crew at Rockville. You should stop by. I work too late to get through traffic to Carderock before running out of...
Suprising to see how many climbers have the direction-dyslexia condition huh? How about the "I can't find my feet". For crying out loud, they are attached to...
I finally got on the Sorcerer at Seneca that was put up by Clark - a member here on the board - and it is an excellent climb. The route however suffers from...
Hi Eugene, Can you please count me in as well? I'd love to get back out there. BTW, I live in Burke, have no car right now but that may change soon, have rope...
Hi Eugene, I would like to join you guys. I live in Annapolis and have a car that is not reliable, but can rent one if needed. I have led NRG 10s on gear and...
Great! I'll add you to the list. Let's hope that somebody else from your neighborhood goes. Or, maybe you could meet us/somebody in VA and carpool from here....
Eugene, I'm only a "maybe". It's not that I don't like you guys, I'm just anti-social :) Seriously, I'm on-called this month so it can't be certain until...
Hung, I knew that but I figure that if I put a marquee name on the list, people will be come to this trip like lemmings to the ocean... :-) I put 'Anywhere,...
I'd love to join in if there is still room. I haven't climbed in a while, but I am happy to belay, just be outside, and get what climbing in that I can. I do...
... people will be come to this trip like lemmings to the ocean... :-) Wow! I didn't know I'm that good looking and charming :) I should start charging if I'm...
Would someone please give me a low down on the camping situation at the Gunks? What are the options? What are the chance to get a site at the multi-abuse...
I've never stayed at the multi-abuse area. However from what I've been told the good sites (further from the road) are hard to get. A site near the road is...
Oh yea, I forgot a trick. If you apply for membership with multiple people in the same address, it's significantly cheaper... Don't think it's the Family...
Hi Folks, I'm heading out to a cabin in New River Gorge for the weekend and would like to get a chance to actually use my tent before winter rolls around....
I'm interested in the upcoming trip, but would be new because I haven't climbed for years. Is this just for experienced climbers? Also, just wondering about...
I'm going to try to check out Carderock tomorrow night. It would be great to hook up at Rockville I plan on joining sometime in the next couple of weeks. Does...
