I want carnage! imagine the new medals tote board: "gold silver bronze heart-attack coma paralysed" ... its a whole new dimension to international competition ... wheee! the Blo-lympics rot no matter where they are held. institutionalized child abuse

	you guys are dorks. Matt is asking for YOUR opinions, not redirection to other websites. Maybe you don't actually have opinions on the matter? ... must be a first for cc.com. ... Matt is an experienced guy and guidebook writer. Maybe if you say something useful on the topic you can get your quotes published like Dru For my view on the subject: I feel that the difference between 3rd and 4th is one of exposure and consequence, while the difference between 4th and 5th is one of technical difficulty. 4th class can be more serious than so called easy 5th, because it might not be so difficult that you would pull out the rope, yet if you mess up you will be in trouble.

	I think the Lowe pack ehmmic mentions is similar to this one: MEC catalog

	S. Ridge of Mt Gimli is in the same general neighbourhood and very fun. Cpt Cavemen can probably get you a topo The Kain route on Mt Louis is a long but not hard day out of Banff, and the mountain itself has no walk-up route, very striking. "Homage To the Spider" on this peak is a route I would like to find out more info about, I have heard it is high quality but hard for "5.8". Of course it is hard to be definitive about the weather. The Bugs can have very nice weather, but by late august it can become cyclical with 2-3 days of storm followed by 3-4 days of sun. If you can time it right with weather then a short trip there is worthwhile. The hike in is steep but not long. If you are going to camp in the Bugs though you should educate yourself about the rules and prices.

	I'm pretty short ... you might do better wearing a cup
