what next? "Marge Simspray?"
-
hunting, fishing and ice climbing are "work" huh remember if you dont like snowmobiles just string some fishing line across a trail at neck-height-on-a-sled when you ski up the road first thing in the morning. the french Resistance used to get the German motorcycle patrols with this technique on the french back roads in WWII. except they used Piano Wire instead of nylon fishing line. apparently if the motorcycle was going over 35 mph the driver would cleanly decapitate himself. if you are peaceful just leave a lot of flagging tape buried just under thesnow surface. i read somewhere (Monkey Wrench gang or some Earth 1st Manual) that the treads will suck up the tape and the plastic will then melt on the engine and gum it up real good.

WHAT?? no one in the beautiful bright yellow Koflach Vertical also sold as the Koflach Arctis Expe? Best plastic there is. They even make a special inner boot with a rock shoe rand for alpine climbing though i think it was only distributed in Europe for about a year making it quite the rare item.

huevos are a stopper ripoff i believe. dunno any more about em. all those nuts work the same metoolius curve nuts are kinda cool but i have heard get stuck more easily like most super curvy nuts do. i also heard they arent as good as hb offsets for weird flared pin scars and suchlike but maybe on tuff they are ok. you planning to fix a bunch on e face monkey face for a few weeks? cause i heard you use like triples of #3-5 RP for that so you better buy some.

I was reading an AAJ and I see that Forrest Murphy's trip to Waddoingtn Range with some Germans is said to "have reached new levels of intra-group angst" What is the dirt on this? was there Alpine Brawling
-
A lot of it has to do with geography. Alaska is a lot closer to Japan than many other sources, so it make sense to sell to the Japanese. The price of crude has to include the cost of shipping it. Much of the oil we import comes from Venezuela and Mexico, which are closer to us than the middle east. What is America's largest supplier of oil & gas?? CANADA!!! eh. I bet you didnt know that. Unless you are Canadian

although this does appear to be the work of a script kiddie, i have reason to believe that the perp is among us. maybe the same "Muslims" that hacked poor ol alpinelite.com??

those old Ds and Ovals make great Funkness biners I have 2 British make 1970's? D's with weird triangular crosssection that used to be on the top station of Drifters Escape make good brass knuckles too.

here is a pic of some alpine ice - streak on the right is kidd falls like, about 3 pitches high with a mixed start you cant really see in this shot. send me $100 and i will tell you where its at.

"Dierdre" works at the Ocean Point Hotel, Friday nights (no cover)
-
Yeah it aint fat but the Bridal Veil to Hope area has Ice. White Wedding is skinny. Bridal Veil just a skin of ice mixed with running water. Easy Intro, a bit more ice but ditto. Mousetrap, Medusa both THIN BUT IN (climbable). Jet Lag & The Cure look mixed but doable. Cruel Pools is mixed lookin' fat blobs and frozen moss. I doubt any of this will last to this weekend so if you wanna climb it you better call off work tomorrow. Cool people are welcome to a floor space bivi in Chilliwack if you bring beer.

no cuz i wasnt in squamish. i was in too much pain to go. maybe soon.
-
shouldnt that be " i wonder if the 10d crux can be MIXED climbed"

AND IN OTHER NEWS.... Bush mistakes chimp for Pope. Russia offers to annex Iraq, telling Saddam "America will never attack Russia" Michael Jackson reveals his next plastic surgery project is to make himself resemble Kim Jong Il. Starbucks Density in Seattle produces measurable relativistic effects; black hole formation said to be "a matter of time" Seattle monorail still off fast track.

maybe its the sunlit buttress directly below the summit?

'bout time you washed thosed hands! cc.com has finally achieved it's goal of engaging the media in a sprayfest. a dubious achievement perhaps, but compared to the efforts terrorists make to get attention i suppose we can live with ourselves. I bet it makes item #3 on the 6 PM tonight just between Grammy follow up coverage and interview with Saddams barber's dog.

i heard a story about dean hart and randy atkinson retreating from the first complete ffa attempt of Freeway waving a #11 hex around on a long sling to fight off a peregrine mom that was dive bombing them for coming too close to the nest. i also heard there is a place that if you send them a #11 hex will make it into a coffee cup for ya.
