Ask Gerry (Roach)

[mtree]

Sometimes, no matter how much you try to convey a meaning or allegory, it doesn't resonate. The reference Surfer Girl is not in the mountains is one of them (to me, anyway). Unless it means actually seeing a stereotypical surfer girl on the summit. Which I'm sure someone has managed to replicate.

Eight days later and I've really enjoyed reading through Gerry's responses in this thread. Thanks for setting this up, OP.

Unknown. I did ask the OP to update the topic to include his name and a bit more info so people felt more confident this wasn't spam, but he has yet to do that. So, we're still not sure this is something Gerry will ever see.

I agree, would love to hear more about Moccasin Man! We had our own Moccasin Man experience on Coffeepot years ago, Kiefer might remember this one?

So we're on Coffeepot after Teakettle and this guy scrambles up to the summit and asks if he can take a picture holding our rope because his friend isn't going to believe him that he climbed it. Then says something like he just did Jagged yesterday (which would be a heck of long day if he's on Coffeepot today), then he goes to descend and we're like "whoa whoa whoa, that's not how you came up its a vertical cliff" and he looks over it and goes "that would have been bad", scrambles down the chimney and starts scree surfing off down the slopes.

LOL. I'd completely forgotten about that until you mentioned it, Mike. Talk about your surreal, WTF moments!!
That was a good day.

Wasn't going to say anything, but if people REALLY want to know the answers to some of these questions (and that the OP seems to be MIA), we'll be seeing him and Jennifer next week. I can certainly ask him some of these questions.
I can almost guarantee he won't see any of this (forum/thread).

The person who.posted it hasn't even visited this site since January 16 so maybe so.

Thought this was about the new AI Gerry chat bot.
