"Two miles from a road" is not wilderness. "Two days from a road" is approaching wilderness. Too bad there aren't many places in the Lower 48 that meet that definition. "Two weeks from a road" is wilderness.

But he IS!

I think TJD's native language is Incomprehensible, cause he speaks it fluently.

hmmm... somebody's gonna have to follow her with the pad to keep it below her. I'll volunteer there ain't no room to fit the pad in between her and the ground in many places

Bring back the NEW TREE CLIMBING FORUM

Does explosives include land mines? Maybe you can get some that the weight of a hiker will not set off but the weight of a snowmobile will.

is climbing up a bolt ladder a form of transport?

What about Aron Ralston's bionic arm? If it had a motor in it? ( I don't know if it does) Or a hearing-impaired person with a cochlear implant? Those run off batteries.

What about using a rescue helicopter in a Wilderness area?

chepe was also designated as an alpine buddy and banninated

What about snowmobiling in a wilderness area? Is that black and white?

No that would be JGowans

How many Alpine Buddy's of 2002 are now banned?
