last time I had a similar conversation with TG he mentioned that his distributor did not have a license to sell into Washington State

they both were mediocre at best Bush again came of "unpolished" Kerry avoided giving "specifics" where's the next John Anderson when you need him?

Well said Rob. It's seeing crap like this (banning people) that has led to me contributing less and less to this site over the last couple of years.

that seems like a real mature position for a moderator to take

now you're making my head hurt

thanks for all the info .. appreciate the help

Question for all you hardware/software gurus .... is there much differance between Linksys and D-Link gear. Getting ready to do a wireless network in my home looking at my options. Thanks, wes

"OUR shortcut" !!!! may I remind you that my suggestion had nothing to do with this "shortcut" .... I take absolutly no ownership for the decision. Let's blame it on TG. Thank god for the Rasta bivi kit.

isn't that exactly what you said you wanted? I THINK my adze is a CF, maybe it's fiberglass. I don't know how to tell the difference. It's a straight shaft and 50cm. Original purple leash. See attachment for picture. my bad alpinfox .... I "ASS"umed when you mentioned CF that you ment CFBP ..... check your PM's

only if you go with me

Thanks Alpinfox but not really interest in either although the CF perks my curiousity ... is a straight shaft?

return from the dead .... still looking, help a brother out alex ... you ready to sell yet? Come on you know you don't use 'em ... right? I have checked Second Acsent several times over the last few months ... nothing but BRS thanks Dave but don't need the hammer, and to clarify I am not looking for an "Zero-X" type tool .... If you are having a problems finding picks, Marmot-Bellevue used to have some and last time I was in Salt Lake you could still buy them at the BD store. Wes is correct, the "original X-tool" was actually called the Zero. Wes, I have a set of 55 cm Chouinard X-15s, however I still use them regularly. I havent seen on of the non-BRS tools anywhere in a long time, but I bet if you religiously watch Second Ascent you'll get one eventually. If I ever think about selling, I'll let you know first. As far as buying at Second Ascent, yeah, just bring in some nice stuff and get store credit towards the purchase. 80$ isnt bad for a decent tool. Alex

years ago I saw the moutain girl of my dreams .. a ranger girl at the Sherman Hut, looking very delish in her skin tight polypro

good time gang .... had a great time catching up with everyone, it's been too long .... My only bitch is every time I drink TG's beer I am reminded that I can't get it on tap in Vancouver ... TG .... werd !!! We need to fix this.

So ... the crew be hitting the brew .... when and where? Wes

Just got the latest Shoreline catalog in the mail. I noticed that the "redesigned" Trango cams in the smallest 5 sizes are now advertised with "an innovative, direct-offset cam design". They look just like the Splitter units which have been littering ebay for months now. I'm wondering if Trango bought Spitter out.

are you doing some marketing work for Jacko?

Many moons ago I did the Washington-Ellinor traverse with my brother and a friend of his (Ron)who was in a "non red meat" phase of his life. On our drive to the trailhead we stopped for breakfast and Ron orders up some "Clam Pancakes". Need I say more ..... best part was in the afternoon as the weather went to shit on us, Ron puts on his fancy new (at the time) Gore-Tex bibs (first generation)which didn't breath worth shit ... and Ron spent the rest of the day "smelling himself".

And who says the Cascades are all climbed out ..... seek and ye' shall find ..... nice job fellas ..... looks SSCHWEET!

CCW Chernobyl - call/email them and tell them you want the old style tools loops ... no problem Cold Cold World custom orders

Anyone have experiance using the Excalibur as an AT ski? I like the low weight and the stiffness but at 94-70-84 I am wondering about the amount of float.

Shit I can't believe it I am actually in town and got the time. Looking forward to hearing Fred spew forth his great wonders. I picked up an extra ticket for the Mrs. however after I explain that Mtn High would be bringing forth his vast amounts of testosterone she opted to bail and stay home with the little guy, up for grabs if anyone wants it. So ... Shred et all, Dot's before hand and than Winter's after the show? Chris I bet your one neighbor is really loving you about now. It's been quite some time since I have been able to hang with "the crew", looking forward to catching up. What time should we start showing up at Dot's, say .... 5:30?
