Pester Thom at parkergt@gov.ns.ca, as he is without his somewhat dubious but reliable climbing partner this weekend (Boulderfest for me, old men). Working Thurs/Friday, sorry.

Peter,

Did your esteemed organization take care of the beer situation this year?

Beer for Doverfest

The spirit was willing, but the flesh was weak.

There will be beer, however.

Boulderfest

I will throw my harness and a device in, sure. There is a 5.10b crack (brutal skin shredder) I would like to get up.

I'll take my harness and ATC if you are bringing the rest. :) no sense in us all bringing gear for just a few lines.

We climbed a bunch of two years ago on a LabourDay weekend trip, and they weren't bad actually. :)

I did three lines up that wall with ya Mat. They were fun but no competition for the bouldering. However, I'd never be caught dead on a rope at a bouldering festival. My bouldering mentor, Zig, might shun me for the rest of my days. :)
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.

Hey, this trad climbing thread is being hijacked by the Dover mob!

Wannabe Steve, are you coming out on Saturday? If so meet at Mitt's house at 10 am.

Cheers

Hickeroy dickeroy dock,
Steve tried to climb some easy rock,
The clock struck 2, he blamed his shoe,
after falling we dropped him off at the next block.

I had to :)
