  1. Amazing man. What a life.

    meh. sure, he'll be a thomas edison type figure for the future to revere, but i'm not certain that his contributions haven't had some drawbacks - the whole iLife, propped up by endless iGadgets, leads to a lotta self-obsessed motherfuckers

     

    i'll forgive him for the starry night ap on those goddamn phones though - that thing is fuckign cool!

  2. agreed, it's not. but are they pulling the same shenanigans on Ingalls Peak or the Easton Glacier on Baker?

     

    On a glacier it's often easy to go around large, slow parties.

    Especially when your cruising the Easton on your snowmachine because it's not in any wilderness area.

  3. If the group is larger than 12 they should get popped by the USFS for violating the Wilderness Act.

     

    The Tooth is not in any wilderness area.

     

    When the south face is gummed up with big parties (which is quite frequent IME), drop around the corner and do the SW Face. Fun climbing that's no harder than 5.5, with lots of room for variations. The N ridge is also a consolation if you aren't into the adventure of the SW or W face routes.

  4. It's about one mile from current parking to where the road has been closed for the winter(at Eightmile road and Bridge Creek CG). As of Saturday none of the slide has been removed, and there is no equipment onsite. The mud is dry enough to walk up and covers about 1200 feet of roadway. Boulderers, get your brushes out. There's a new, house-sized boulder a couple hundred feet above the road. Dave A.

  5. 'Smoke Out' is the lower and smaller. 'Big Honker' is the upper, larger, sloping ledge. I "slept" on Big Honker just for the hell of it. More like "dozed fitfully".

     

    I have a ledge I built that I slept on (just for the hell of it) part way up Dana's Arch, that also survived a big flake pulled off Uncle Ben's at Squamish that punched a hole through the fabric (since repaired.)

    (Mine is the upper)

    You can borrow it if you want the big wall experience.

  6. its painfully clear to even the most casual of observers that charlie sheen has been possessed by the spirit of kenny powers :)

    If by "Kenny Powers" you mean "cocaine psychosis", then yeah, he's definitely possessed.
