Damn will, your mojo must've kicked in and led you to the heart windows prior to my reply.
I assume you already have the 1000w amp and house speakers with purple fuzz decor?
-
Most places I have climbed, stuff is rated way too low.
-
Concave, heart shaped windows in the cargo area, dig?
Heart shaped anything inside, the chicks think it's groooovy!

Tell me about it!!
Phil also comments that the hommade goop doesen't taste quite as good?? As if the real GU tastes yummy.
Oh yeah, anyone want to buy some homeade pickets, they are similar to the older SMC type but burlier.
About 5 Available in 24" - 40". Not for the lightweight minded.
Hell, I will give them to you if you stop by my house in Monroe just to get them out of my garage.

You guys are nuts.
As a consistent "do it yerselfer" I value my time at $30 per hour which is probably about how much time I would assume you are shopping for ingredients and manufacturing the goop. $30 is enough to buy a season's worth of GU and worth it not have one more thing I have to worry about getting done prior to going on a climb.
If you're worried about the litter, throw the empties in crevases and they won't reappear in your lifetime (just kidding!)

Pretty nice pack for less than 100 bones. Looks like it would make a nice little summit/dayclimb pack.

Then, if you spend your refund at the Duty Free shop to buy mongo alcohol or cigars you get an extra 10% off your purchace. Makes for a pretty cheap party

'nother vote for MSU in Bozeman. There is way too much recreation around there for serious scholars.
Some highlights Lambone skipped:
Jobs don't pay much
Average High temp in January -80
Locals don't like folks from the PNW (
yupies)Real Estate is too expensive
lot's of alcoholic
hunters in the back country up 'til x-mas and snowmobilers after that.
You also better be expecting to adjust to "Montana Time". ie, if you are meeting a local to do some craggin at 8 am you are expected to chill out until at least 9:30. And don't be surprised if they befriended a hitch hiker in cowboy boots who's now going climbing with you.

right on lambone.
I think I have #1 memorized, I have read #2 and #3 but, # 4, eh, I'm in denial, kind of like - if I don't know self rescue I won't need it.
Guess I better get with the program

Hey, if we find out he had a North Face Electric blanket coat should that be an astric as well?
The next guy can do the "triple crown" straight through to create another category/record. I'm with up-chuck on this one.
I bet can kick your
at a
contest.

Beck, like I told Dru, NO Doobies.
Check out his website, it looks legit to me.

here's his website:

nice poncho tent.
No mention of ultralight bong Dru.

Wow - he would have buried me the first day. Quite an accomplishment. I'd like to hear more about what type gear he carried, besides running shoes and snickers bars.

Hiker finishes 'Triple Crown': 7,400 miles, 22 states for California man
By Glenn AdamsThe Associated Press
THE APPALACHIAN TRAIL, Maine — For 10 months, he started walking at sunup and didn't stop until nightfall. Yesterday, Brian Robinson, 40, of San Jose became the first person to hike each of the three U.S. National Scenic Trails in a calendar year when he reached the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail atop Maine's highest peak.
He averaged about 30 miles a day since setting out Jan. 1, destined to complete the Pacific Crest Trail in the West, the Continental Divide Trail in the Rockies, and the Appalachian, which runs from Georgia to Maine.
With a handful of well-wishers in tow, Robinson finished the 2,168-mile Appalachian yesterday atop mile-high Mount Katahdin.
Tackling hiking's "Triple Crown" — 7,400 miles through 22 states — took Robinson through hip-deep snow, scorching heat and more than 1 million feet of upward climb.
To save precious time, he ate while he walked: Snickers bars, peanut butter, anything calorie-rich. Nary a pound was shed from his 6-foot-1, 155-pound frame.
Seven pairs of running shoes later, he looked no worse for the wear, save a bushy black beard he last trimmed in April.
What nearly got him, he said, was the isolation. Since he never slowed down and barely stopped, no one could keep up long enough to make good company.
Only 24 people have achieved hiking's Triple Crown in their lifetimes. In 1999, two men became the first to hike two of the trails in a single year.
Robinson hiked the Pacific Crest — 2,645 miles from Mexico to Canada — in 84 days and six hours, averaging better than 31 miles a day before covering 2,588 miles of the Continental Divide, which has no fixed route over much of its length.
Robinson, on leave from his job as a systems engineer for Compaq, saved $10,000 for the venture.

"I learned the basics of rock climbing while living in the burbs of Chicago. I didn't have any partners either. So I read lots of books and messed around with stuff. (burn freedom of the hills)"
Lambone:
No disrespect
for a skateboarder turned buildingeer, but, Burn Freedom of the Hills? Come on Man!
Not to put you on the spot either, but, what other single source is a more complete text for a newbie to learn how to climb safley?
Any suggestions would be appreciated by this newbie. I like devouring climbing manuals.

That's funny, I just taught my 3 year old the "hot lava" game where you can't touch the floor 'cause it's "hot lava" or "molten magma" if you are a Dr. Evil fan
Maybe that's what the news was

Jon & Timmy:
Gremlins are great, more would be better. Where's the chainsaw?
Ratings are not going to be of any legitimate value with this crowd so long as the arbitrary vote is allowed.
Everything else is great!
