  1. Here's a better view...
  2. Hardscrabble Lakes? Up the Middle Fork road? That would be south of my photos subject.
  3. I'll see your mystery crag image and raise you one, though I really don't understand why mine didn't already have bolts and tat all over it.
  4. No, it was Satan... [video:youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XcYAMR3PoU&feature=related
  5. It is my understanding, from reading the statute, that the melting down with the intent to sell the altered coin makes it illegal. From Title 18 United States Code, Section 331: "Whoever fraudulently possesses, passes, utters, publishes, or sells,or attempts to pass, utter, publish, or sell, or brings into the United States, any such coin, knowing the same to be altered, defaced, mutilated, impaired, diminished, falsified, scaled, or lightened"
  6. Post-1983 pennies are made of zinc with a copper coating and are quite easy to snip that way. It is only illegal to alter US currency if there is fraudulent intent.
  7. This sort of looks like the summit of Mt. Baring. So it is...
  8. It's one of Cristo's new art installations...thousands of giant croquet wickets spanning the breadth of a city along the roofline.
  9. Hint: It's north of Hwy 2
  10. Your problem sounds like rocker launch. Tele boots have a tendency to rock the skier forward due to the "rockered" nature of the boot design. You can see this if you put your boot in the binding. Most likely the heel will not be setting on the heel piece, but will instead be hovering above it. This effect can cause you to be pushed, or "rocked" forward toward the tips of the skis, causing the tip dive. The wedge is supposed to offset this effect by lifting the front of the boot up and setting the heel down. As you mention, tip dive can also reduced by moving the binding back a bit.
  11. You could see long strings of rock dust explosions as the rocks repeatedly bounced off the wall.
  12. That's when I screamed like a little girl.
  13. Rob said Frankie screamed like a little girl and then demanded to bail after it was all over. He also said that the wall was undulating and shit was coming down all over the place, but that not so much as a grain of sand landed where they were standing, on the ledge at the top of Davis-Holland.

  18. That looks like Andromeda.

  20. I get that every summer.
  21. And always, the routes, with purity of aspect, traversed obliquely. A should be classic...
  22. Yes, there are many.
