As Ben knows, if I try to climb beyond my ability, I tend to fall on my belayer. There are only two routes at Ship Rock in my range, and I have done one of them. So ... the Terrance Bay area would be better for me.

Peter, sounds like your feeling "sorrow" for there not being much for you at Ship rock. Or is you bottom "end" still sore from landing on ben?

Sounds like a great plan to me.

Turns out Ben is a hard man to fall on, in the end.

In my line of work, Trans-Marginal Inhibition (TMI), describes a possible response to overwhelming stimuli.

I would agree that falling on my belayer at Main Face last August was overwhelming, stimulating, and painful, but that is all I am saying.

Ben stimulating? Is that why he carries Condom's, matches and gas with him?
