The Brotherhood Of the Traveling Stopper...
|
The stopper got to cassondra about 3 weeks ago. |
|
I came over from RC to check things out because you folks are always talking shit about how this is where the real climbers hang out. When I saw this thread I thought "sweet, these guys & gals are getting it done"... Two TRs in a year? Pathetic! |

That is a wicked qwesome picture, what did they bolt back togther? |

The stopper got some action in red rocks cassondra and I took it up a climb. She is going to write a trip report. |

|
But have my building doubts... |
|
At least I'm not the only shmo checking the TR forum... |
|
I'm hoping for a nice trip report with pretty pictures. Maybe I'm just getting my hopes up. |

Epic fail on all. Twenty minutes is all it takes to climb a pitch and place the nut. Ten minutes is all it takes for a TR. five minute stop on the way to work is all it takes to keep it going. One minute is all it takes to know that this isn't working. Good idea poor execution. |

The One True Stopper has been at large and on its mission. It has actually been involved in the ascent of two obscure routes as is its commission, and has antics it would like to participate in, but will understand if impatience of the masses determines it should pass on to the next participant.....trip reports to follow. |

We should get a new one all the potty-heads will love: Brotherhood of the Traveling Bong, Man. That one will for sure be good for some laughs. And legal in Colorado, too.Sounds sanitary...haha |

Any info on who has the stopper right know? If so please pm me. |

If so please pm me.Certainly not Roger. :P Seriously...someone please send Roger this already-half-forgotten relic before he blows a gasket. On the bright side, he seems the most likely to sprint the approach (ripping the Priority Mail package en route), sink this thing into the first succulent crack he can find, snap a few pics, drive home at 110mph and post a TR before the garage door shuts. |

Ahahahahha Brian that's awesome. |
|
if you'd send it to Poland...i'd take it up the high tatras in the spring for some adventuring :) |
