  1. 20 hours roundtrip? No sleep? No bivy? If so, way to go!
  2. Perseverance. Great show for coming back 10 years later. Yeah, that slide alder can me mentally taxing. Tell her there are worse things, such as chest high salal, and a grove of pacific yew on a mountainside.
  3. looks great with the weather. funny subtle picture!
  4. You guys definitely took the most advantage of the long days. I am impressed.
  5. Bellingham probably feels like a desert compared to Juneau. Glad you had a great time!
  6. you should update that thread, old boy - a story w/ a post-script is to be savored....how u doin? I am still climbing! Although not at this exact time...had and ACL reconstruction 3 weeks ago due to a skiing mishap....luckily no rappelling incidents...however, every time I rappel, there is a very short thought that goes through mind about what happened many a year ago.
  7. Here is my rappelling accident: http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/48076/Mount_Temple_Accident_Incident#Post48076
  8. interested. still available? pictures: stefanefeller@hotmail.com
  9. Raining in the Cascades for winter--that will put hair on your balls. Good to keep at it!
  10. impressive. especially after your surgery! That camp 2 swing in temperature is crazy! I have been there and know what you mean.
  11. now this is really cool. good on you two. rappelling in the dark, no matter how long...OI!
  12. I am in the same boat as you in regards to feet. The feet sweat so much I get blisters due to the wetness. I have found the antiperspirant in combination with the foot powder does improve slightly--but does not take it away at some point. Additional socks yes, does help. Gotta hang the dry socks on the outside of the pack while you are moving. Then...change again. At some point you have to realize this is your life and it is a pain. I have gone to ankle high Injinji socks with separate toes for a liner and Darn Tough outer socks. I wear breatheable running shoes as an approach/return and carry the climbing boots. This does some to help I have found. Then when the climbing boots are required, I slip into them. Then when in camp, I wear the running shoes as camp shoes.
  13. Didn't know you could now pay to do Ferrata in North America... via Ferrata $ at Kicking Horse
  14. This is a wonderful story. It is great to always hear good news. People are great.
  15. Epic day! Love the transition from nice weather to wetness. Keeping up the smiles the whole way.
  16. Glad to hear the recovery of the accident is progressing well!
  17. So....let me see if I get this straight. The woman in the electric wheelchair gets up out of the wheelchair and starts to "dance" a bit and fights? Wheelchair?
