Here is some info from a couple of weeks ago: http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/417313/an/0/page/0#417313

It is the Bedayn Couloir. And yes, one will say "fuck". And not just once, but several fucking times. Warning: Do not go down the Bedayn Couloir!

I have done the Ellinor/Washington traverse and doing A peak in between the traverse. Did it in early August. I recall dropping down to around 5200 feet on the east side and traversing in a northeasterly direction until I hit the well travelled climbers path that leads up to the summit of Washington.

Very good to hear. Very good!

Griz, going out to lunch with the women at work is not a date. I bet they feel sorry for you becuase you usually have lunch by yourself looking at the computer (of course you are on cc.com).

Saturday supposed to be okay. Sunday is better. Also keep in mind snow will occur at 2000 feet over these next couple of days. He will not see a thing from Wednesday to Friday no matter how hard you try.

I wish more females would come out and do the stuff I do. Females have a slightly different pespective which is refreshing.

Wife called and said she wants to do me tonight. Whoa. I am usually the instigator.

For generally the same type of living standards try Tyrol or the Dolomite regions. Great food. Italian women. Rock Climbing. Ice climbing. Alpine Climbing. Just in general hiking. And not as populated as Switzerland. Access to Switzerland and Austria. Wine is usually cheaper than water too.

I don't think this change will fly. Not even close. Right now the front contendor I think for 2008 is John McCain--and I think everyone knows it and they do not want to upset those chances.

And all the other fees for his companions. He can pay for an entire group and not put a dent in his wallet....or he could use the money to buy enough vaccines for a small country in Africa to save some lifes....ahhh. Life choices. sorry but this just pisses me off. how do you know what he does in terms of charitable giving? should he not have the oppportunity to enjoy some of his wealth by spending it on himself? would you begrudge some avg middle class guy a trip to everest if (s)he worked hard and saved the money for it? should that person give that hard earned savings to a vaccination program in africa? Read the post. It's called "Life Choices" He probably has given several hundred thousand to organizations--more than I will ever be able to give. It does not mean he has NEVER given. Once again--read the post. The choice I posted was that you either spend $30,000 to climb Mt. Everest or you spend $30,000 for vaccinations. If you were given $30,000 what would you do with the money? Reading the tone of your post, it probably means you would spend it on yourself. Just an assumption.

Did you guys claim first ascent by putting up yellow chalk description as it shows in the first picture? V20 or something?

North Rib of Triumph.

I saw it on television this morning. Not pretty when they were giving the guy CPR. RIP

What if I use a finger?

HOW BOUT THOSE SONICS!

Good to see you got out with your dad! Thanks!

Minority.

How can Libertarians get Democrats and Republicans to realize that they don't have a claim on my income to give to others? Run for office as a Libertarian. Change the system. Oh wait, you wouldn't get elected. I wonder why that is?

That is probably right. There sure are a lot of lesbians.

Lawgoddess answer me this question. When I was a strappin teenager (almost 20 years ago) I went to several dance clubs. I noticed girls laying on the outside assuming they wanted to dance but were never asked. So I asked them. They always turned me down! Now why would a person go to a dance club and not dance? so you think that just because a person goes to a dance club they should want to dance with just anyone? i'm not trying to be a bitch, but i would rather dance alone than with some strange guy i'm not interested in - no matter what he looks like. Ummmm.....I don't know old you are. About 20 years ago if you danced with yourself you were considered weird.. nowadays that is stigma no longer applies. So the culture was that you came to a dance club to dance or maybe pick up on somebody. These girls would come to the dance club by themselves (in a group), leave with themselves (in a group), and never dance.

Not true at all. At best this is a generalization. You cannot tell me that the democrats put up a strong candidate. This is the real erason that Bush got re-elected. You cannot deny it as well as I cannot prove it until you understand the feelings of everyone. You are not the speaker for everyone. This is an opinion from my observation. I do know both parties used fear.

Basic truth in 2004 election: Fear is a motivation for an action. This is how a lot of people voted. Fear. Some voted for hopes, dreams, and job performance, but mostly people voted for certain candidates because they were sold on the campaign of fear--and they did not know they were being sold on the campaign of fear.
