  8. no they go on the instep, like, the arch of the boot. i will try my hand at MS paint! see attachment they are an alternative to chopping steps when hiking and trying to cross snow. nothing more. only work when sidestepping.
  9. we wont be able to fully explain the for another 20 posts... the upper levels of new pages often suffer from snaffle infestation
  10. i used to have those the strap goes over and thru side and back over and thru other side more or less really you need a diagram. did you check their website?

  12. as you begin to spend more and more time on the site you will come to understand.
  13. So there were lotsa ppl up there and im probably the first one to make it home so I get to write the TR and everyone else replies to it Went up Saturday AM with Don and Janez leave Chilliwack 5:15 AM arrive Lillooet 8 AM. Pretty warm and raining in the canyon on the way up. I had hoped to persuade the boys to try a new rt in the Canyon but based on these conditions it would have been so suck. Ate Reynolds (brown, scrambled, sausage ) then went about 10kms up the bridge and we climbed this very long gully with a series of hidden steps above the Xwisten reserve (this is about half-way to Jade Falls on the north side of the rd.) Don and I had tried this last week but the first step was too thin then. Now it was fat and wet. There were about 3 belayed pitches in the gully all of which were soaking wet shower baths and I was glad not to lead any of them but accept the speed TR and stay only soaked instead of fully inundated. On the 3rd lead Janez had water running in at his neck & wrists and dripping out of his pants after filling up his plastic boots Anyways there were about 3 belayed pitches (3+ 4 4) and lots of rambling and Wi2 and unfrozen gully bed as well and the elevation gain is like 600-800m or something... long walk off and back to the car well after dark. Lotsa ppl in town Saturday night and it was not too much of a party scene. we went namedropping in Dinas where the talk of the night is that Jia and Chris G are working The Theft as a mixed route, have it half-bolted and had to fix ropes go back to Whistler to get more bolts Then in the Vic some local woman tried to pick up Don with an unusual technique.... if I recall rightly she said "I only drink beer when I'm pregnant" Today Don and Janez went off for more guidebook research in the Duffy and I got a ride with Fern and Kellie. We snooped around in the Fraser and Thompson finding it was much wetter and warmer in the Fraser than the Thompson. Ended up climbing After The Gold Rush again. First pitch was wet second pitch was still nice and icy. i found another dozen geodes or so, the last curtain starts right in a bed of them. Bring a rock hammer Mysteriously enough Polish Bob showed up on Saturday night or at least his car did but several cars received the calling card (attached) even before he arrived??
  14. lil' old ladies sometimes have the furry steering wheel as well
  15. eating snow to melt it is is demonstrably more efficient than putting snow in your empty nalgene and attempting to melt it through body heat. if melting snow in a nalgene under your armpit doesnt dehydrate you (it doesn't) then eating snow won't either. simple thermodynamics. this "you have to use water to make water" speculation is nothing but piffle manufactured in an attempt to justify an erroneous urban myth/old wives tale. i am telling you you are wrong. try and find some solid data to back up your speculation if you honestly think you aren't. but i will tell you now you are barking up the wrong tree. in the absence of a source of liquid water - best thing the guy (or anyone lost) could have done was eat snow. as long as it wasn't yellow...

  17. theyre prob doing it so people dont mistake them for falcon crap, i mean, falcon! guides tm.
  18. what about epinephrine - res arete in a day, punk?
  19. i could make up some other bullshit to refute your bullshit but since you just made it up why bother? eating snow does not cause dehydration. it cools you down is all. being cold does not "cause" dehydration. try it some time and see.
  20. it's too late the dollar already free fell PP but here push me! is an interesting link between dollar losing ground to the Euro, and war in Iraq.

    which one is the gay one this time Mr Falwell?
  24. But Will that's my whole point.... this is how you get the weird stats like where # of jobs and # of unemployed both increase over time...by giving us the simple stats you & PP have little meaning attached. Why don't you just go straight to the battlecage instead of putting random numbers up in an attempt to "prove" something... All I know is the US dollar is still in free fall pushing loonie, yen, and Euro up to 10 year highs making my BD express screws cheaper to buy
  25. Hmmmm Don't you have to actually calculate the total numbers and then recalculate the % from that? Cause the population probably grew over that time too Like in 2000, there were 310 million ppl, of whom 200 million weere in the labour force, of whom 190 million were employed. In 2003, there were 320 million, of whom etc.
