I agree with Mattp's choice. I have seen avies come down on the right side (as you view the summit) before though. Easy spot to get to

Bib= more sweat from my experiences. I guess if you winter mtnr a lot they can be useful though. I always get away with some cheapo bottom of the line zip off shell pants. I cant justify buying that $$ stuff when I kick holes in it with my crampons when climbing. Just a gaper's view

I have never worn the other Trangos just the Ice one. So I cannot base my decision comparing the other boots.

North Buttress Couloir on Colchuck. Not the other couloir to it's left with all the rockfall

I used the Trango Ice twice this season for waterfall ice climbing. Very very good boot in my opinion. Although I have not worn them in temperatures below 10 degrees F. Super flex for approaches and just stiff enough on the sole for vertical ice. French technique would be easy done in them. I just might get me a set. I demoed mine from http://ProMountainSports.com I think they had size 43 for demo.

Wassup Big Perm oops I mean Big Wurm

All my photos I have are of me and friends gaping at Icicles that we are not bold enough to climb hehehehehe. I think maybe I could put on a slide show of what I wanted to climb and looked at but then left A whole bunch of photos of me standing around with the word FEAR written across my forehead Except I climbed Cherry Ice once! No photos for that!

A good time was had

Right just like Crack and I drank Ellensberg out of beer for one night

I yell and scream on 5.4. I dont care. Scream and complain!

I had this conversation with a very exp. climber recetnly. Remember I am gumby! What is "IN" as in definition. Dont' slam gene he might be real good. Look daler climbed deeping wall on lead

First of all thanks to Mike the original Spray Meister! He helped provide me with endless hours of entertainment

I am fatter than Oprah. She can send 5.9 watch out !

rayborbon for sale or trade as well as chepe

Trask was buttraped by a large inmate

A porn slide show by a freak ice skater from Eastern Bloc Euro sounds good to me

I put mine in some WD 40 afterwards. You might want to use a green scrub pad on the more tainted\rusty spots.

Tikka's kick ass. Get one for just when you think your headlamp is just too bulky to carry and or too heavy. You'll not have a problem packing one in your bag for those just in case situations

Yeah maybe Gordo can go over and watch some ice skating and wear some tights like they do in case a slide show comes to get in his way

If you want that sort of entertainment, turn on the discovery channel, or better yet, survivor. Why travel to the middle of BF nowhere to watch slides like you can at home? GB Like I said if it occurs just get some fresh air. Here smell this fresh air I dont have 50 friends up there so leave the bah humbug tude where you picked it up at. The Discovery Channel doesn't come in up there just 50 channnels of hockey. I gain more inspiration from a good slide show other than some spray which is entertaining as well.

I dont care for paragliding shows either. Show me some gnarly old Brit climbing up some rock climb with his picks and I am happy I dont care about those bolts either... Clinic sminic IMHO. down the beers and get some rocking smack talkin' guy to give a show if he wants. I dont care if it him climbing Honeyman falls or PlanB just as long as it is not too dull. Plus with the liquor flowing it will surely make it more entertaining than normal.

quote: Originally posted by fishstick: Unsure if slide shows are the way to go on such occasions, especially those with "famous" people. It's the locals (those that frequent the place) that have made the climbing what it is. The last time they brought in someone famous, he bolted a route (for teaching purposes) that locals had been probing pretty hard, ground-up, sans drill. Slide shows also suffer the same problem as movies do on a first date; nobody talks and you really don't get a chance to meet one another. GB I am down for some sort of entertainment. Fishneck you can leave the premises when and if a slide show occurs in order for you to meet people I dont care if it is local or famous just make it entertainment! Better than standing around doin the dickdance drinkin beer at a bar like you always can do

Maybe others have avatars for trade! No need to reveal who you are hehehe. I have about 7 or 12 that I would trade if someone has a new one I can use. No need to post just send PM

Maybe I should call my show Liquid Courage Aspirations. I seem to drum up all these climbs I want to do when I am drunk
