  1. Old news. Try "Miserable Failure" (or just "miserable"). Still works ... for the last 2 years. "Waffles" use to bring up John Kerry #1.

  6. I don't hate the beach!?! Oh here is the real Playa:
  7. a million times. btw. 400 meters in 4:25 would be pretty incredible
  8. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2023320890224991194 Found this the other day. Not sure if its been posted here or not, but imagine not, otherwise it would probably be a big topic of discussion. Pretty interesting arguments. Its an hour long, but worth watching every minute.

    Parkour video

    Not to support parkour at all because I certainly don't do it, but I'd have to disagree. I think its becoming much more popular than most people think, but its largely underground - like skateboarding was long ago. A recent article in the PI and a recent feature article in Ode Magazine, would beg to differ that its not the latest pop culture phenomenon. Try putting parkour into google and seeing how many results come up...

    I can see how you could think it was lame if you didn't know anything about the parkour culture...

    Dru you must be a "traceur" yourself, since they are they only ones that wouldn't think making fun of "parkour" is amusing.

  14. Hat's off to you Mike, excellent effort, and perhaps the proudest traverse done this year. I have to agree with Alpinfox, though. Since when did linking up multiple sub-6's become a grade 6? Well I realize it’s been going on for a while, but it seems a bit ridiculous. In this case (and especially in the case of the big Pickett traverse last year - linking multiple grade 3s !?!) claiming a grade 6 is bogus. There are too many points where you could walk off the "climb". It’s also pretty ostentatious to climb existing routes, throw in a couple new pitches, and then name the entire thing like it’s a complete new route. If I go to Burgandy col and bust my ass out of there for three days in a row and climb as many grade 3s and 4s as I can, is that a grade 6? I realize you had bivy gear with you, so what if I just took all my gear with me, does that count? Where do you draw the line??? Too many people climb for the numbers, and I’m afraid you’ve fell victim. I don’t want to hijack your thread, so perhaps this discussion should be moved to another thread, so you can get the untainted golden shower here.
  15. Thanks for the update. A lot of us appreciate the info. It’s often hard to follow/find the high-quality, smaller print-run guides. I assume that a small grass-roots guidebook company like Supertopo doesn’t benefit from the massively funded advertising and marketing campaigns that other publishers have – as well as being pushed hard by mega-mall style outdoor retailers. It seems like Supertopo relies a lot on word of mouth as being a top-notch guidebook producer. Btw – this website is chock full of guidebook “touting”. So I’d call it anything but spam or spray. Perhaps it should go in the Events forum, where other guidebooks are being sprayed about. Or the Rock Climbing forum since it’s not a trip report. Or even the Online/Mail-Order Gear Shops forum if you prefer. Also, I tried all the links, didn’t get a single pop-up and readily found free information.
  16. Anybody know how the couple of warm days and sunshine in E. WA has affected the Banks Lake ice? It seems like its starting to get colder again. Is it worth a trip out there?
  17. A friend of mine took a bad leader fall and hit his head. The helmet compressed and a headlamp clip hit his scalp and toar it wide open. Massive bleeding ensued but he really only had a superficial injury. A nice gauze pad would have been a good cushion for that, but you do have a good point for not putting anything up there.
  18. Is there a limit to the length of your stay in the Park?
  19. That's not how I heard it. You're such a bumbling wanker that you couldn't decide or were too scared to be flown out to Iliamna because of its remoteness. Paul explained to you that there was a chance that you could get stuck out there for a while because of the weather and you folded. He was simply giving you options as to where you might feel a little more comfortable. Obviously the Eklutna traverse, complete with huge backcountry huts and plenty of other fellow mountain neophytes, was more your speed.
  20. To the Administrators: could you please unban AQUAMAN and let him come back to the site. He was the best sprayer of all. Thank you.
  21. I say 'biggest' in regards to number of members, but please correct me if I am wrong on that. I am fully aware of the missions of both groups, being a member of both (probably one of the few people on this site that is). I assume you will receive your journal (not Accidents) before it is in stores. The AAC is a business like any other and they can't sit on one finished book just because the other is not ready. Basically I say, give them a break. We need all the climber advocacy we can get.
  22. Is that the only reason that you joined the AAC, to get the journals? The biggest climber advocacy group in the nation doesn't need your money then, with an attitude like that.

  24. Has this one been said yet...?REI: Return Every Item You dumb corporate sucking bitches,The dollar amount of returns is so tiny compared to the total sales. The Corporate Death Star doesn't even feel it. Then they turn around and sell the returned items or they will return it to the manufacturer for a refund for themselves. This, after they talked you into returning only part of your money at the customer service counter. They are not hurting and it doesn't affect your dividends or the prices.Wake up and get a life!
