so just to keep this on track and away from star wars/ cooper being stuffed into a deer (which is an absolutly hilarious mental picture) who has additions to the list of classic problems. I know there are some hidden gems out there that I haven't been around long enough to know about-sean T, jon graham, sean cassidy; im looking at you guys here.

yep still on as of right now-because of school it looks like it might be more staggered with people heading out at different times and not staying for the full 24 hours but im going to keep climbing as long as I can-sean t says he can show us the borg boulder so thats on the list now too. once im done exams on the 14th i can draw up a rough itenerary of which areas at which times so people can meet.

hey i have to work friday night and saturday morning so im postponing my section of 24 hour sessionage until saturday afternoon to sunday-If people still want to go out friday night have at 'er but unless i can get a drive out after 10 im sh1t out of luck. if its still on this weekend does anyone have access to heaters or lanterns on campstoves or blowtorches-they would all make it more comfortable. I might try to grt out friday morning until 4 or 5 if anyone is interested drop me a line- Im done exams after tommorow at 6 so anytime I'm up for bouldering give me a call at 441-1648.

stoked zig, I might head over to canadian tire and grab a spotlight-they have a cordless one on sale for $16. I'll head out tommorow and clean some of the snow off-I don't know what the loc is like but i went to tombstone on saturday and its really icy- every thing except the surgeon general start was iced over, dont know if the rain melted it. yo talya if you are done exams we should go climbing, I finished today and im STOKED sending from here on in.

I think we should draw up a possible list of areas and times so we can meet up because i can't get out of work until four and i know other people are heading out at different times. generally when ive been out at night the wind seems to calm down at night so i think the exposed areas like corn and bung and memorial would best be left for the night.

I think we should warm up at lake and satilite, then scoop and mega, then area 51 ->doghouse->scrappy->laundromat->astroids->jungle and gros poisson->corn and bung->nouveau riche->pleasure dome->polly's cove maybe? i don't know if i missed anything or if the order is off for some reason so post up with suggestions.

What do you mean the session died? This has got to get done!

What do you say after new years like the 2nd or 3rd, providing the lines are climbable. Personally pick 1 line at each area in the LOC, the burlier the better and then we throw down! I figure we start at Sundown just so we don't get used to the warmth of climbing during the day. The key is to keep on the move blitz style. We start at the Ball Field, Dog House, Scrappy's, Mega, Area 51, Scoop, Lake&Sattelite, Jungle & Gros Poisson, Corn & Bung, Nouveau Riche, Other areas might include Memorial, Cheese Cake, and Pleasure Dome Area. If we're feeling solid after Corn & Bung.

So who's in!
