Count me in .. another nice spot is the toe of the Upper Buttress .... nice photo's gang

I believe that should be .... "Too hot to handle, to cold to hold"

hey that's a great idea rbw1966 .... I never thought of using spent condoms .... that's very resourceful thinking

not to many people will admit to that ... most lie and say they live in Ventura, supposedly more "romantic"

and the web pages for the store load way fuckin faster than the rest of the sight .......

I hope he makes it too ... totally agree with the "dream" thing ... any kind of a startup in this economy takes "balls" .... I did also notice that it mentions the "Retail Store provided by Cascade Crags" ... they actually have a couple good deals ... $50 for a new SMC Shuksan axe ain't shabby ......

How about a "Dry Tool Festival" at Beacon Rock?

come on ... I gotta see these

so Lambone ..... you gonna pay up?

I've owned a Alpine Flash for close to 10 years ... best heavy jacket I have ever owned ... Triple Point washes up well ... a quick trip thru the dryer as suggested by Lowe and the "waterproofing" is just like new .. they are a great bargin .. IMO Gore-Tex is overrated

located between Rajneeshpuram and the Al Quida training camp ... look for the statue of the Bhagwan himself riding in his Rolls Royce ..... smoking a fatty

you'll probally have to wait until late January ... he's heading south anyday now for some "R&R" with his wife and daughter

thanks pretty funny ... but it is a great place to climb and I always found "the common folk" to great .... I was southern France in 1994 on the 50th anniversary of the liberation of Paris ... man I could not buy myself a drink if I wanted to

Rob .... thanks for thinking about us over here .... I myself will be out of town on biz (last trip of the year, thank god!!) otherwise I would be there Is seems to me about the only time Winter puts up a post anymore is when there is drinking involved

right on guys... nice photos ....

LMAO ain't that the fuckin' truth

Anyone have any experience with the Mountain Hardwear Alchemy Jacket and/or Gore Windstopper Trango fabric?

Just thought I would chime in some Kudos for the US Outdoor Store, with the Holiday season on I have been in and out of there several times in the last month .... service upstairs in the climbing shop IMO is better than ever ... yesterday I picked up a new anitbot set for my Grade 8's for only $24, granted the Grade 8's are no longer in production but I have seen many shops still expecting you to pay MRSP. All DMM TCU's are @ $30 and FCU's are around $38 ... I was however a little disappointed after writing out my check the dim wit at the cash register had forgotten to ring up the #3 bugaboo .... all and all I think they have improved

excellent point .... one I learned the hard way

you've been Trask's cooking again .... havn't you

Hey Dru .. can you help us brothers and sisters out here ... I tried multiple searchs, got many hits on Al Dunham, check the ACC and many of the chapters sites but came up with no link to a Al Dunham personal page ....

thanks klenke .... I downloaded this one some time ago, only problem is the first 1/3 of the ridge is not shown .... appreciate the help ....

MntnrMichael, Thanks for the reply, .... Perhaps I should have been more specific. I have several shots of the West Ridge from the west (Ingraham Direct, DC, drop of Gib Rock, etc....) and some shots taken from Cathedral Gap, ...I am looking for a shot from ... say the SE toe of Cathedral Rocks and/or from the Ingraham above the lower icefall looking back at the south face of the west ridge ... thanks again

Ladies and Gentlemen ... I give you the Emelda Marcos of the Ice Climbing World ...... fishstick !!!

Several years ago I was in West Seattle at a supermarket and in the parking lot is this little SUV all dressed up in Crimson and Gray , Coug shit from head to toe .... the license plate frame read "Ted Bundy was a Husky" ... being a Coug fan myself I laughed my ass off then thought to myself either this guy is really brave or really fuckin stupid
