Here is a sign! "how the fuck am I going to fly my flag with no damn rope"

This guy was waiting for a little of the same. Rocks + Gravity + Unhelmeted Climber = when is your time gonna be up?

bottom line: know how to self-belay and if that fails, self-arrest skills must be bomber! And if that does not help... be prepared to hear the dreaded sound of Gore Tex screaching across the ice as the abyss welcomes the unroped jackass to his or her untimely demise.

I am just killing time waiting to head out this weekend... Don't mind me. Ice, snow,rock.. Still need the skills. Cheers

Any pants will do... Just so long as they match my lucky shirt.

GLISSADE SHORTS. Are these for real? I am just waiting to see the first Gumby to sport these shits. "Designed to protect that ever expensive “Gortex” outer shells.

Medium weighttruck tarp material is used on bottom side of harness and 400 packcloth on front side. Weight 1lb. Size: Regular and Large.

Hey hexproject, if werkin my mom seems better than climbing with me, you are not being truthful with yourself, cause you loath bbw ladies on belay, plus, she's not really down with boys. Me... Mama (l)...

leave the Bosch and ski the N. MilkCreek gully but watch for the right exit about 1000 ft down and to the right, then link some deep knee bends all the way to the PCT.

Is there anyone planning to work Shasta on or around May 15th (give or take a few days). Or Jefferson on the following Saturday? Let me know.

Dr. Jonathan Hemlock is the man... The best is when he is slugging warm beers on top of the spire...

I know that San Jose is not the Cascades, however, Lynn Hill did pay us lowely cyberasses a visit to a sold out house. So my question to you all is: what trad climber (m/f) is more bad ass than Hill??? And since the poll works, maybe those who are more skilled than I can make it work... Who is the

"3,000 feet below the peak, and a string of equipment tracing the route of a fall." That is one hell of a tragic yard sale!

My parents are from "Leer," Ostfriesland! Does that mean everything? Anyhow, carin less... CC is best.

"There is nothing glorious about dying or losing one's companions." Glennmn is absolutely correct!, and the pain lasts longer than one may think!

"Choose life" would be to easy... Tommy: Doesn't it make you proud to be Scottish? Renton: It's shite being Scottish, we're the lowest of the low, the scum of the fucking earth. The most wretched, miserable, servile, pathetic trash that was ever shat into civilization. Some people hate English. I don't their just wankers, we on the other hand are colonized by wankers, can't even find a decent culture to be colonized by we're ruled by effete arseholes. It's a shite state of affairs to be in Tommy and all the fresh air in the world won't make any fucking difference. Hell, DMM is all I am gonna add to this!

I just returned from the Evolution basin. Mt Lamark, Mt. Darwin, etc... access was via Lake Sabrina and the corn snow was f'n deep. In June you should be fine, carry an ax at all times and keep an eye on avalanche/rockfall danger, as I just experienced both. The Sierras are bad ass....

Mountain grrrl offers great advice, as do all the other offerrees. The most crucial..."forcing lots of water in all day long, and eating full meals, even when I (you) didn't really feel like it." That is the key to best thwart the ill effects of high altitude. But what about ladies hanging out their chunkers at 22,000 when it's 30 below, what is the best method for ensuring (HAWC) happy and warm chunker.

Quit bashing SP, everyone there is pretty gosh darn excited to have such a wonderful cyber climbing community. See example pertaining to a new member who is in transition from car camping to backpacking... Thanks for joining, VG. I can't put my finger on it, but summitpost exerts a strange draw on me. I keep coming back. Probably because of the nice community of people and the ease with which I can contribute new material. For gear questions, you may check the SP "Gear Review" section. Click on "gear" to get there. Cheers,Morgan As for Twight, he has put up some decent lines. Cheers, Rudder (lol)

Of course, if you run out of fuel you can eat the ramen dry. It's kind of tasty all by itself. In some circles that is called Ghetto fries if you add the packet and shake...

August, North Milk Creek Gully via the summit pinnacle... Bring a helmet for rockfall protection and something with which to ascend steep and deep scree. It is more fun when you ski it down and back, very fun...

I forgot to add the choice pic... Cheers

Heidi gets my vote? It may not have the trick bolt gun, the comedy of Vert Limit, and the misery of 7 Years, but it does have some trekkin, a nice plot, and a whole lot of Alpen summit shots. Prost Neu Jahr!
