and the MLB strike

dudes. way to go. really. oh la la.

now that looks cool! awesome!

I could run this country.

I have come down from the spires on the route you ask. I cannot remember if we came directly over point 6233 and followed the NW ridgeline directly down to the old townsite. But here is what I remember being a little snippet: 1)lots of blueberry bushes on the way up 2)I remember staying mostly to the north of the direct NW ridgeline from the old townsite. 3)there was one 40 foot couloir/gap when the route encountered minor cliffs and that was also on the north side of the NW ridgeline--and we needed to vegetable belay this part to get down. This was the ONLY difficult part. Once past this part it was partially bushes, and then opened up to meadows. 4) the easiest route up and down is going through the basin and not the ridgeline

Interesting. Then why do I keep hearing the symantic "values" from the conservatives and republicans? If so, then your logic Raindawg might have a problem.

They need to go cross country in the Cascades to see how many trees have fallen. That would be like forcing a smoker to forceably smoke 20 cartons in 10 minutes.

I don't understand. The Netherlands have their own espionage service? WTF?

Let's hope the Democrats do not stoop to the lower level of "moral calling" that the Republicans do. All private matters need to remain private--it is a pure waste of my time in the news to hear about this...so I just skip over it.

dude, what happened to you this past weekend? We thought you and your dad might be freezing up there...? What happened?

nice! thanks for the pics. holy cowza.

Mark, Remember this is climbing. There are no rules. That is the way we all like it. Is it gonna piss you off? Sure, but it sure is hell a lot better than having rules.

I don't know. Maybe it is becuase I am getting older.... McCain seems to like good looking women. It appears McCain would be a good manager of Hooters.

way cool. maybe they will have an animal sacrifice on stage--like an elephant.

if you are interested I will give you detail info on a map in .jpg form. I just climbed Agnes about 2 weeks ago. later.

Same talk. Different year. The Republicans will have the same talk too.

If America is so great, how come I get this 100% common answer from so many foreigners who I pose this question: Q: Would you want the American health care system in your country? A: No.

interesting how they are not doing checkpoints in eastern washington where there are more illegal immigrants. I guess they know we need them.

that dog's legs must look like they are Speedy Gonzales legs on the trail

I love the vids. Fricken awesome!

It was great to be on some of those peaks with you Paul. Congratulations!

great picture of both climbs! excellent actions shots

If you are travelling on the Interurban trail on your bike in the morning or afternoon commute and a guy gives you the "peace" sign with his hand while riding his bike, then that is me. See you on the trail!

Rescue at night in the Enchantments. Been there. Done that. Good to hear about the winch and help. Was a blackhawk used and the dudes wearing night vision goggles?

me jealous. thanks for sharing your wonderful pictures!
