In college I took a women's literature class becasue it was easier than the other lit classes offered at the time and I needed to take one. Turned out to be a lot of work because the only other guy in the class was part of the group that hit on me on a daily basis. Too bad I don't like smelly hippy chicks (or guys!), might've been fun.

The best way to approach the North side of the peak this time of year is to drive as close as you can to the trail head and follow the hiking trail to the lake where you'll want to refer to your guide book for the rest of the approach. Snowshoes would be pretty much manditory. Rock is variable. Descent is not straight forward at all. I'd suggest doing a recon of the "walk off" to get an idea of where you're going and current conditions on the mountain. There are several avalanche prone areas you would want to move quickly through on the descent route. I've seen a bit of ice up between the North and South summits so take your ice tools.

YOU WILL DIE!!! Just kidding. You should be fine brah. I've been at Camp Muir in a 8 hour, gale force whiteout and seen much lesser tents do very well. I've personally made a practice of building snow walls (wind breaks) immediatly upon setting up my tent at camp. Guy it out regardless of the weather too.

That's my next vehicle hippie!

I'd agree 100%. I don't have any problems with the hood/helmet fit. Pretty warm and heavy. I don't see it on the website either so it may have been discontinued. In reality you shouldn't need a hard shell with that much insulation because there isn't going to be much moisture when it's cold enough to warrant wearing this coat.

More likely they are tired of beating their head against the wall. I, on the other hand, have an extreemely thick skull.

The WT belay parka is widely considered the warmest. I have a WT Denali jacket which is a belay jacket with hard shell and that sucker is only brought out on sub zero days.

How about consider the formerly classified reports on these jokers that's been released to the public in recent years. I believe the correct term is "hindsight" you pinko

Here, this is a little more absorbant

Let me know when you're done with the Bible and I'll find some more material for you

Nevermind I found it here (no thanks to you slack jawed gapers ): https://www.secure-shops2.com/sho//product.asp?itemid=388 Some interesting articles on that website, seems like an alright organization.

I heard some mention of a book verifying Senator McCarthy's commie hunting as having been a lot more accurate than most have portrayed and he is actually considered a hero by many. Does anyone know the title or author of this book? I was considering getting it for my dad for his birthday.

Aren't you the whiny whiner who's constantly complaining about the poor shrinking glaciers? You can't have it both ways pal.

Rudy I can think of no finer noobie awkward crack than the short and "easy" first pitch of the lizzard at the Great Northern Slab. Then move over to the Libra crack, I mean it's "only" .10a

Maybe a dynamic belay would help in this situation.

Is there still a seceret forum for ban- er, I mean moderators to chat?

Disgusting.

You guys are mean and suck frozen turds. I mean that in the nicest way. If you come to Bozeman you will probably die a slow cold lonely death. Stay away. All the ice and college hotties belong to me. I live near Bozeman and this is my sarcastic attempt to keep you dense commies away (pretty unsucessfully I see). Go to Canada and knock down all of Dru's ice. I'm finding out there are a lot of other places to climb around here that aren't real well known. Pine creek is actually closer for me and I drive past Ousal falls every day on my way to work. If any of you guys are headed over here, be sure to check out www.montanaice.com there is lots of good beta thar. I was just out this am checking out a junky rambleing climb about a 25 minute hike from my back porch.

Because you suck. Nope. Merry Christmas.

Hyalite sucks. Go to Canaedia or?

I love these guys running around with video cams to catch these precious moments, sigh.....

Jack, they've been gone for a few years now. Thanks for your interest and good luck. God bless America!

Who is posting this garbage? Why don't you tell us what you've done with the real JayB? Jay, if you can hear me, I'm sending out the silent black choppers, hang on buddy!

Jens: If you really think you should get new tires just do it. It ain't worth the stress and lost time in digging out/waiting for a tow or worse.
