  1. Midway is one of my most favorite routes around here. It's fuckin kick ass like many other climbs on the Castle formation. If only Saber had a better second pitch it would be in the same league as far as rating and climbing are concerned. I think I have done some variations to saber and stuff near it left and right but they aint as good as midway.
  2. It's in december. You can look at the death report in the website for avalanches. I think it is referenced in the nw avalanche site and also in http://avalanche.org by clicking on something like accidents.... Dave what did the reference to traks say?
  3. Yep that explains it. The log was there in December but looks long gone now. The only ones making the fuss were Paul and Justin. I was just trying to offer some information and suggested my methods for finding the trail were sound.
  4. Here is a photo of the log crossing. If you can cross there you will be on the trail and will not have to schwack.
  5. Nice slope. http://www.nwac.noaa.gov/revised_navaho_peak_slide.jpg
  6. Cross the big log where the sign is next to the river - if it's doable and both are still there. Then it's kinda sorta front and left from there. If you can cross the big log then you're set. If not then I suggest crossing the river (looking at the river) then bush bash (which I have had to do once last year) forward and left. Snoop and follow your nose. The trail can be faint but human use is obvious. Once you get on it and 200 meters from the river you should not be able to loose it in my opinion. Oh yeah- The big log and sign I am talking about it not directly across from the parking lot. I remember it being some distance between 50-100 meters left (as if looking at the river) from the parking lot. There's usually a good short trail of about 50 meters to the river and sign... Good luck next time...
  7. send email rayborbonathotmaildotcom I dont monitor here much. Make offer. Used once. If i lied you could not tell anyway. Pretty much perfect. willing to trade for crampons for fritschi crampons.
  8. using:ingnoreannoying
  9. I dont recommend internet first aid courses based upon shithouse lawyers. Take a course. BTW the techniques and opinions advance and change often for some areas. Remember that shit changes like I said above and when you should change is kind of confusing for techniques and formalities depending...
  10. There is nothing wrong with style comparisons. But to make a rating based upon a piece of gear or furnished addition that has been in place for a while and designed and used by many of the users (especially the so called elite users and innovaters or pioneers) and trying to downgrade it or change the case make it easily the culprit and problem when one talks about climbing most of the time in regards to M ratings IMHO. BTW I climbed an m4 once onsight on lead so I proclaim myself an expert on decisions here. It's 5.10 to climb this crack (some crack) with shoes, chalk, ropes, cams, chocks, and etc for latest gear available right? If somoene chooses to sit start the crack without shoes, ropes, cams, etc doesn't change the rating. I think the evolution of reverse evolution of what has already happened might be something here.... Is it trad mixed if you dont use spurs on m9? Is this a new definition of trad climbing or sit starting or sandbagging or is it just what we see? BTW I dont have spurs or horses and prefer to frontpoint up easy ice. Latah PS This website is slow for me right now........ Not sure if my post is making it in there..
  11. I dont disagree- but that traverse was my favorite pitch. Do one then rap and do the other to see them both ;-)
  12. I think that was catbirdshit feces not species.
  13. No hippofrogzilla research is available to me at this time. There are documents that indicate that the hippopafrog population was decimated at nearly the same time. I suspect this is from more fallout from the anus of an apatosaurus. Maybe it killed the catbirshit family tree too but not sure about that species.
  14. In the Kimmeridgian era there was a possible extinction of Kangorillas in Beowawe that might be linked to asteriods being launched from an anthoropomorphic formerly constipated apatosaurus.
  15. Here's my best bouldering photo.
  16. If you are saying that is direct shit the US has been selling arms to the isrealis for a long time... Either the Humuus guys are real dumb and just figured it out or something.. Sometimes justice works out of bounds in regards to "international law" and in this case I am fine with it...
  17. I can loan a camera with a super zoom lens. Let me know.
  18. Gross - That one's fer sex choco puff
  19. Where's the butt shots? I'm not taking shots or flippin shit. She probably has a nice butt
  20. Where's the butt shot. Now that might provoke better talk
  21. I agree wit ya lummox. His remark is glossy vague and not really directed with information related to his general complaint. Therefore it's kind of not really on subject..
  22. What!!!? The media is biased??!! Fuck I better tell everyone about this.
  23. A dynamic blob of misleadingdisinformational forest service and govt bullshit is all this pass is. Later
  24. Yep me or my bud. Thanks for the photo
  25. Yes that is the one- left skyline of Asterkisser Pass. It's done from the belay niche in only 2 long pitches.. I took some nice photos but they are not developed yet.
