OK, so all this talk about Manzanar has got me really curious, suppose I will just have to get up earlier and join in with the visit.

Hi Jeff,
Is this event just for breaking the first ascensionists list for two new routes or climbing event includes as TR, Lead, or all other high skill climbing?

I am interested in joining if you allow a beginner TR climber.
If the event is exclusive to your friends or requires certain skill level, I won't join.

Shin, sir,
Funny I was going to send you a specific invite. I've heard through the grapevine that you've been doing a lot more vertical hiking recently. I'd be honored to have you in on our first ascension flailing. So yes, please consider yourself very welcome. (The manner in which each person reaches the top won't be highly scrutinized. I'll bolt at least one of the routes on lead and everyone can decide to either follow, lead or get hoisted up in a series of "assisted TR dynos.") Looking forward to it!

Hi Jeff,
My son Ryan might come up with and would like to join in on the climbs if you wouldn't mind. I have gear for him. He is a novice but really enjoys it. Let me know.
Thanks.

Yes, all are welcome as long as they have climbing shoes and harnesses. As I noted, I've got other climbers tagging along, so there will be any number of rocks with ropes on them.

Hi Jeff,
Thank you very much. I don't have much opportunity to climb outside so I don't want to miss any open invitation climbing event.
I will bring a tall ladder just in case.

Doug,
I won't be able to join with you for the moon light hike. But, I will come out the Potluck party if you don't mind. I'll bring something for the party. After I see you off, I'll drive home.

Rosie - due to the snow, you might want a bit more than your fun hat & special socks. May I suggest - fuzzy gloves?

Now I'm in...
BUT, I AM NOT WEARING A COSTUME!

Don't know if I can walk more than a couple of miles though. Can I ride one of my motorcycles along with the WPS Gang on the Night Hike?

I got some of them Jumar thingies that you can clip onto a rope to go up... Where are we going?

Did Jack make it up the Mountain? I'm concerned that he may be catching up to me in numbers...

Seems like we have a lot of meat dishes (yum!) so I think I would like to switch to quinoa salad and some sort of portable baked goody for the hike.
