Anybody know the story with the fixed rope on genesis is? I'm sick of looking at it, its been there over a week.

Yo, Its one of my neighbors here in Eldo workin on a certain variation. I will tell him about your concerns. Peace and f-nes Steve S.

if it bothers you I am sorry, my advice... don't look at it

That's a great attitude EDJ - chances are the rope will be "cleaned up" by someone in short order, then the owner of the rope will come on here whining about their "stolen" gear.

I was hoping it wasn't someones "TR- solo" setup, pretty lame. Please clean it up soon or I happily will.

thanks shralp good looking out that thing is an eyesore

sorry I can't just not look at it lol

shra,
what is the big deal? is it in the way of anyone?
(not that it is my rope..)

Keep eldo clean and beautiful. Its not a place for fixed crap! Anyone that thinks their project on some silly variation is so important that they are entitled to leave a fixed rope surely doesn't get the spirit of eldo. The nerve of some people really bunches my panties.

don't start the flame war...

i am sure the fella will move his rope.

and by the way, i think he has the spirit of eldo,
having done more than most of us ever will there,
and living there, and doing first ascents there, etc.

for all you people know, he could be working on cleaning
a new route for you all to enjoy safely..

It is my line. I am having fun on that rock climb. The rope is not in the way. Soon it will be down as I am ready to try and lead it. thank you for all of your opinions

This is why I don't like climbing in Boulder anymore, so much bull shit attitude.

This is how the Boulder Rope Wars got started.

Just sayin'.

Is this a nice rope? I could use a 10ish mm.

What a bunch of hairless ballsacks you Eldo folk are. Threatening online to jack a rope with accountability, hating on people owning up to what they're doing honestly, just generally being walking talking excuses for cold sores-

Golden Fuckface Award goes to the first person in this forum to set themselves on fire. The rest are second best.

Hey, what's new on Oprah's book club list, you walking testosterone cases?

^^^^^Prove it.

hahaha okay mr. "walking testosterone case". jeez.

Ah, the inability to process irony. Hallmark of the most important thinkers in the world.

Shit I say=to laugh at, shit you say=shaking my head.

To put it in algebraic terms, y'unnastan.

I am going to weigh in here to tell you guys that EDJ is a no shit badass. He's working on a New Route that most of you could only dream about. Stop bitching. It will be great. Or,maybe you only like pre-approved, helmet friendly, not-too-runout, past achievements...

Hi Joe.
I've stayed out of this until now.
Working a route I could only dream of?
You mean a rehearsed headpoint?

Yawn... No matter the grade. It's been done if it isn't 5.15.

That is your values and perhaps his. And other people may or may not be impressed. If you expect them to value your goals, perhaps you should acknowledge that theirs are different.

Different strokes for different folks.

If you really care so much about pristine wilderness and outdoor ethics just stop climbing. A line hung temporarily on a project is much less an eyesore and much more temporary than the trails, chalk stains and tape balls "environmentally conscious" and "ethically driven" climbers produce on the daily.
The greenest thing you could possibly do is to go hang yourself from a fucking tree.
