    Refreshiez

    Ya it may not have snowed for a week, but the hoarfrost on sunday was like 6" deep in many places, it was almost like the pow-pow. This bumbly felt fully safe trying to ski downhill knowing he could fall over at any time without injury. Timm@y where the hell is the Freshiez gremlin?
  5. SUBARU BACKSEAT means "you never have to couchsurf" in Japanese!
  6. set your sights higher billygoat, dont just ask for a couch, ask for a bed and a wife

    READ & RANT

    the rox would be awfully crowded oncertain routes, if everyone was still climbing henry barber style with no friends, no chalk, and barefoot. think of the lineups on martian diagonal!
  8. im more interested in who replies to the Science Connections ads with the two shy mice about to get it on
  9. isnt that the yeti?
  10. 150 calories in a beer beer 7 calories/gram 21 grams of alcohol in a standard beer????? really????? lets take a pint glass of beer drink it OK take another pint glass, this time a hypothetical one... a Pint is about 700 mL +/-... average beer alcohol concentration is 5% that's 35 mL of Alcohol. now for water 1 mL = 1 gram, but alcohol is lighter than water; even applying an 0.8 conversion factor that would give us equivalent of 28 grams of alcohol, or ~200 calories. Then, there is sugar in beer too, also yeast etc. Courtenay, where do you get those Calorie reduced beers of yours? Anyways the point is, an article in the latest Scientific American recommends moderate consumption (less than 2 beer equivalents per day or approximately one pint) as beneficial for most adults. Yum! The effects of horsecock on the circulatory system, and recommended intake of same, has not yet been addressed
  11. THIS STUFF would make for some pretty good Ninja gear.
  12. chuck... having done something similar a time or two I can only say good work on digging that bollard. my suggestion is to "get back on the horse what threw ya" and go do a relatively easy climb, with a partner, pretty soon so that you have a good recent climbing memory, post near death experience, to think about.

  14. if you ever want to start an alpine brawl tell a bunch of newbies what their guide is doing wrong
  15. did you smoke the "green and brown" in muir hut while you were there? keep up a cc.com tradition?
  16. that wasnt my experience, but i only demoed the ergo for one quick try. they're definitely more set up for hooking than swinging though.
  17. i was looking at the pickets with binoculars from BC on saturday just gapin with my mouth open cause they looked so cool. good work!
  18. 1) who knows what snow pack will be like in June. maybe its gonna snow a lot in april and may 2) depends on how much snow there is 3) ditto but if you are on snow all the way there will not be "runout 3rd and 4th" (which classes are typically run out anyways....) 4) A few RACKS???? we did it with 6 tri cams and 6 pins but that was the rock variation to finish (8 pitches to 5.6 or 5.7) if you just go up the couloir you might be able to get away with NO rock pro. then again it depends on snowpack which there is no way to judge now anyways how it will be like in june.
  19. MEC mixed master works great. hands stay dry. can place screw and clip in with gloves on. last about 1.5 years if you climb ice all winter and use them for alpine in the summer. also costs about $60-70?? CDN (i cant emember the actual figure)so half price of BD glove.
  20. bd gear = copy petzl/charlet gear with 1-yr time lag. yeah lammy i was wondering about the std. quark cause im guessing if you had used one before, you would not have had to adjust your swinging.
