Blacker than you are, honkey.

I think if you bulk up enough, you'll be your own pack animal. I recommend supersets of squats to build those horse-like thighs.

Spoke too soon... that second photo is rad!

I was just thinking about this route. Got any photos?

Clintoris, if you were my buddy, I'd give you shit about being so worried about quantifying the number of summits you've done. I met a guy in Boulder, CO a few months ago who told me, unsolicited, the exact number of "climbs" he's done. I didn't know him, so I didn't point and laugh, but the Internet does offer the distance to do so. It's just the nature of the medium. I'd go with Dechristo's advice. If someone's really interested, you should have no problem telling them the whole story of how you camped out at Muir and climbed several routes. Sounds like a bitchin' way to do a bunch of climbing.

Got any photos?

Ned Flanders, now there's a real gentleman! Nice job, guys

"Leads? Yeah sure, I'll just check with the boys down at the crime lab. They've got four more detectives working on the case. They got us working in shifts." Maybe you should just post the thieves' address and any identifying information.

Five hours car-to-car? Damn, that's speedy.

Soon, Gary will be lugging a hibachi and full bar.

I've made a habit of jumping up and down really fast, Super Mario-style, to rack up as many "summits" as I can when standing atop a mountain.

WTF kind of a word is "boffins"?

That sucks, man. My buddy's car was stolen this past week in Seattle, too.

Cool, nice to hear from one of the climbers! Mostly we're wankers here who like to sling shit at each other and anyone else who's an easy target for criticism. The real NW climbers are out climbing

As of Saturday, 7/25, there is maybe 50 feet of hard smooth snow between the moraine and the start of Serpentine. If you brought an axe and did a little step-cutting, you could avoid lugging boots up the route. The snow down from the summit to Aasgard was perfect for plunge-stepping and there is only one tiny snowpatch on the trail down from the pass.

I, too, am eagerly awaiting the release of the snug top. Guess I'll have to settle for the instead.

Corporations have been arguing for years that they ARE "the public," so making the next leap is not difficult.

So the second one is really free trade: the government engaging in the commercial real estate market (via theft). Peter should be all for it. Redistribution of wealth is OK as long as it moves up, not down, the class ladder!

Bwahahaha! Blame The Liberals! Fun for the whole family!

Family Circus. Whitest jokes ever.

ESPONT

PMS replaced my Trango S (not EVO) with a new pair when some stitching on the side blew out after their first 10 miles of hiking. That's good service. Dunno what he had to go through with La Sportiva, though.
