Out of curiousity, how does one lose a pair of snowshoes? D

I met Jon at a booksigning for Thin Air. Humble, quiet and down to earth. Would trust him on the other end of the rope.

Share Share Share. I too get tired of hearing about 5.14's. I'd rather read about the 5.7 and 5.8's.

Pair of Jumar Ascenders, new, never placed on a rope. Purchased for my big wall adventure that marriage curtailed. Box and instructions gone but then you should not be buying them if you need the instructions. List price is approx. $130 depending on where you look. Will sell for $90 obo + $5.50 to ship. dyonkin@hotmail.com

Go back at the site and check out all the "extreme woman" Yikes!! I sat next to Tara Llanes and her boyfriend coming back from Seattle last year. She is a natural beauty, not an ounce of make-up and down to earth.

Keep your powder dry ranger.

I have two Marmot DriClime Notched Crews, worn once and washed. They are marked medium and now are smaller. (Marmot's site says they shrink 3-5%) Too small for me. See www.marmot.com/products/base_layer/base_layer_prod_crew.html for picture. Color is "Drake Blue" (to me dark blue/grey) No visible wear, pulls, tears, etc. Like new. $30.00 for both plus $4 to ship. (Retail is $37.00 each) dyonkin@hotmail.com

I thought the sequel was "race or H.A.C.E."?

I do not get it either.

My turn to bitch. May I start by saying that I believe all fathers should support their children, as I have done faithfully for the last 10 years. Once again the bimbo beast bitch from hell is taking me back for more money. She has not worked in 10 years. She has neither gained a skill or any education to increase her earning capacity in that time. Needless to say, my wife is not pleased, as more cash now goes out the door, meaning less for my family. Penalized for working hard, seeing white trash rewarded for keeping the couch warm. Thank you for your time, I remain,sincerely a menace

Watched 4 AYSO soccer games.

Guy walks into a bar with a 25 lb piece of asphalt under his arm. He says to the bartender, give me 2 beers, one for me... and one for the road.

Great thread. I'm a father and climber, in that order. Some of my kids climb, some don't, it's their choice. I'd rather have my 12 year old daughter look up to Tori Allen than Britany Spears.

Whoa, yikes. yipee ki ey! I personally have had very good experiences being guided by Madness. Another trip was in the planning stages. I learned that two of my favorite guides recently left, thus the reason behind my inquiry. Is there an answer or not?

Anyone know why?

I like the Mountain Hardwear Chugach Jacket. Synthetic, warm and light. Stuff to softball size.

I wave my arse in the general direction of the so called "vetern climber" (my apologies to the real climbers in advance, you know who you are)

"Four Against Everest" Woodrow Wilson Sayre Any of the early expeditions to Denali e.g. the Sourdoughs

Sitting having a beer in New Paltz, NY arguing/discussing loudly over a particular route in Dick Williams guidebook (Gunks) when this skinny grey haired older gentleman offers his unsolicited opinion, at which time my "very observant" egotistic partner told him to "shove off". (Yes it was Dick Williams and yes I did follow him outside, apologize profusely and he signed my guidebook - Cool guy)

Based on my experience, my book shall be called "Rabid Toproping" One climbers illusion of the ticklish edge battled on single pitch choss.

Subarau outback or forester

Is "hard" the measurement of success? When did "success" become equated with sacrifice and suffering? Is simply "failing to die" on a route mean the climb was a success?

Just read this for the second time. Don't know Twight personally, but some of his "techniques" are off the wall. I did not know that the line between going light and stupid was so thin. Climbing hard, intentionally unknown, Elvis
