Your gear was feeling a little neglected. Now it loves you again b/c it got taken somewhere cool and didn't even have to do any work.

Drury Falls, Hubba Bubba looking thin but probably climbable. NO water ice in the Dragontail, Colchuck, Stuart area.

i'd say spray is just about exactly what it always is: a couple of misunderstandings, a few cliches, several insults and trask trying to measure someone's shlong And he probably isn't even using the proper scientificly approved device.

the underlying motivation to "have sex with death" can't ever be ego.

Good luck. You can try Second Ascent in Seattle.

Isn't there a school of philosophy that says this same shit called existentialism. You know, like Kierkagaard, Nietschze, Twight...

at a ski store in portland.

I think i'll let this thread die a nice quiet death, without adding to Dru's normative hypothesis. Though now, I am pretty well convinced that whatever Dru was doing with his glo-in-the-dark Ton-Ton, it wasn't wholesome.

there's a sex toy store called Toys In Babeland... I bet the ton-ton battery powered stimulator comes in glow in the dark! dru, i'm pretty sure that specialed knew there was a sex toy store called Babes in Toyland. we probably don't want to know why he knew that... Whenever I go by that place they've got all these brightly colored blown-glass dildos in the window. I know that Dale Chihully is big in the northwest, but I never imagined he'd have his own signature but plug.

I think I saw one of those for sale at Babes in Toyland down on Pine.

Why am I not suprised Dru knows the answer to this.

Cool. Thanks bro

Can anyone who's done that first chimney/offwidth pitch tell me what gear you used? Did you need a #5 Costalot?

Gib wall is defenitly not the best waterfall ice route. Not that there actually is a "best"

wank.

EB GB's and Fantastic Voyage at Josh.

The Canmore Inn (I think) where we stayed was the best. Their rates were just as good as the strip mall motels and they had a jacuzzi, sauna, and an awesome bar. I don't know if the high school chicks from Calgary that were in the jacuzzi were included in the price or whether they just happened to be there though.

It feels better to sauna afterwards. But really its a good idea to do it before - the maxim "warm up, cool down" fits well. Like Jon said, it might be best used in conjunction with stretching. If you sauna afterwards, you're not doing your muscles a favor because they're probably already warm.

Here's to Dave

Classic.

Nah. Just give him a swift kick in the face instead. Best on the cheap plan for the Rockies, is head up with a posse (like 5 or 6 folks) then go from motel to motel in Canmore or Golden and find the cheapest rate for "2" people. Cram everone in one room and it will only cost like $10.00 US a night per person. Bring your double burner in and cook your own meals too.

too late, already has.

We got one Ashcroft call in the Storm Troopers!

I aint gettin on any list that Oprah Winfreys on.

Say what you will about the nanny state and such, but it's hard to argue with state-sponsored climbing. Shit, let the people who want to work go ahead and work. Those who would prefer to climb and live on a relative pittance and eat canned cheese? Let 'em send! Unfortunately those who choose to work, end up paying for the canned cheese eating slack-offs to climb.
