It kind of depends if you want to see the biggest peaks, or the less westernized people...depends on priorities I guess.

I could have swore I just read that in the most recent edition. I'lll look for the quote later after work...

Oh, cool... I was reading in JoJo's book that it had only touched down once in the last ten years. I'm hoping it gets big and fat so i have a chance of climbing it.

dyrad, with a month you could feasibly do both treks. Skip Everest Bascamp and hike up Kala Patar, it is just a scramble. If you had to chose 1, don't turn down the chance to gaze apon the talest mountain in the world. Just my .02$ Also, you have probably heard this before, but i would discourage you from Trekking alone.

What is the average cost of a Garage Wall? Figure about average size, to take up 1/4 to 1/2 of a two car Garage. Say you get some use ebay holds, and some new dope Pushers...I am in the preliminary planning stages. Also, Rich who owns VW makes and sells textured pannels predrilled with T-nuts. The pannels have nice durable features built in. I'm not sure what he sells them for, but give the VW managers a call if you are intersted.

yeah will ya freakin tool...sheesh

where the hell is the damn chat room anyway?

you're a fucking tool catbirdseat

Yes, looked fat from the trail to Professor, and from the road. Pretty threatened though

that song kicks ass...great to play loud when you want to just sulk and feel sorry for yourself.

Terminator on Trophy wall...touching down. Did the bottom fall off?

This is the best thing anyone has said in this thread! I moved it to spray because it clearly doesn't belong in the ice conditions forum. It did, for the 1st half of the 1st page...too bad the rest had nothing to do with ice climbing. If anyone has a problem with that...one word

huh?

a word of caution regarding the pro-traxion: It can fail to lock under certain circumstances. Once ic clipped it straight into a belay bolt, and as I started to haul, the bags started pulling me up! I found allways ussing a sling to attatch the pully to the anchor gave it enough freedom of movement, and it worked fine. Petzl has a warning on their web-site. small diameter ropes work better.

So we were up waiting in line to climb Louise Falls, messing around on this cool thin smear to the left... And this guy walks up by himself with a metal detector. I'm thinking hey, this guy is smart...trying to score booty from a popular climb. We chat andit turns out he is up to look for his lost ice tool. He points up to the climb and says,"see that broken off pillar up to the right..." That thing tore lose while he was on the route! His buddy was belaying in the cave beside the pilar, and he was following the pitch. It is hard to tel from the photo, but this piece of ice was fucking huge! About ten feet across, three feet thick and 30 ft long. The dude is lucky to be alive, turns out he just had a bruised rib and lost some gear. Here is a link to some discussion about it on live_the_vision.com http://www.live-the-vision.com/wwwboard/messages/3309.html Didn't look like he ever found his took. He started trying to shovel through tons of ice piled at the base, and it looked utterly hopeless...

hahaha, charlie...that is the funniest shite I've sen here in a while! mixed climbing kicks ass...that is my take on it, need to get stronger...

use G14's

Nice dude! Posted some photos in the Gallery...

Thanks yall we did... Proffesor Falls Weeping Left (bailed due to ice fall and heavy snow sluffs) and Louise Falls (fat and fun!) Polar Looked Sweet but turning the Pencil looked spooky and the sun was bringing tons of snow down on southern aspects. Photos to come... What a fucking awsome place

Yeah, but my stoner buddies are so bad at making a quick plan...so I like to come prepared. were flexibvle, we will send...I'll post shots upon return and spray about it...later suckaz!

thx, got one for my wifey...

My vote is for the Pro-Traxion, I have been happy with it. It has a couple of subtleties that you need to watch out for. I hear the Kong Block Roll is good, PPTP at rockclimbing.com seems to think they are IT. Forget the old Wall-Hauler...

werd so did they burn the meadow this fall?

Can anyone else see the new photos on Will's site? Man I wish I could...
