  1. so I bought myself a new pair of skeez and now I want to mount my bindings. Pins at chord center they say ... but where's the chord center? ... is it halfway along the top plate of the ski or halfway along a straight line between the tip and the tail or what?... these are twintips.

    rat bastard thieves

    someone stole my guidebook from the base of a crag once. I had rigged it with a clip-in loop, so I just wandered around the smoke bluffs asking if anyone had seen somebody with a guidebook clipped to their harness and sure enough I found the dumbasaboxofhair thief and punched him in the nose ... like if you are gonna steal something then at least HIDE it and LEAVE THE VICINITY!

    AT boots

    I recommend the ones that fit your feet. There are various brands/models marketed to women, but those models may not end up being the ones that fit you best. You have to go to the shops and try stuff on. Several makers now include thermal custom fit liners, which is a nice feature.
  9. smash it into more small pieces. make small pieces into keychains. sell keychains for $5 each. buy new cam.

    Beacons

    the HRM idea is interesting. but orthogonal to the goal of simply avoiding multiple-burial situations which for typical weekend recreationalists just should not be that difficult.
  12. 1996 the John Baldwin Backcountry Whistler map has a more detailed topo and route descriptions for Husume buttress.
  13. you can also sit the fuel canister in a pan of water and periodically add more warm water from the pot you are heating. Or use a chemical hand warmer on the bottom of the canister. there was a thread on this before ... do a search.
  14. shouldn't you take this to the NEW MY SAUNA IS HOTTER THAN YOUR SAUNA FORUM
  15. unlike Ron McLean's joke: "Don Cherry is all for French Immersion, he just thinks they don't hold them down long enough"

    Beacons

    I have no doubt that if I am ever buried in an avalanche I will die. But I don't want my last thoughts to be "I wish I'd worn a beacon, at least then I'd have a small chance"
