  1. Haven't the Mormon hit squads capitalzed on their Krakauer-fatwa yet?
  2. Yes, that is a fixie BTW
  3. Bill, more like this: So I can ride over there and have my bike kick your ass
  4. "when we did Reality Bath I felt like I was going to puke all day long" - Mark Twight "how come he felt like he was gonna puke? I mean did he eat 6 raw chickens or what?" - Tami Knight
  5. I invented the wheel. Fucking great thing. But then instead of telling anyone about it, leading to wheelbarrows and unicycles and Formula One and all sorts of other good things, I decided just to keep it to myself, to allow others the pleasure of discovery. Except when they think they're inventing it, they are really just REINVENTING it, cause I was there first and did it before them. Motherfuckers, take that!
  6. On the other hand in caves they still go in siege style with fixed ropes and stuff.
  7. First ascents are bullshit next to virgin cave passage. You can see where you're going and everything. Maybe if Erik Weyenmaher was doing some nonsight ground up FAs the difficulty would be comparable.
  8. Tvash, you mistake quantity for quality
  9. In the 80s the liquor store in Whistler was in a trailer - one night someone showed up with a rig, hooked it up to the trailer and stole the whole store.
  10. More like you've seen Goatse
  11. Lake Foul is pretty large for a water-birth.
  12. Don't know where dreams went wrong? Maybe back when you were young and strong.
  13. Um... the straw man argument with the magic beacon that will be 100% win and 0% fail is not the issue. It's like saying "A super gluey shoe and glove should be developed using gecko tape and then everyone should be made to use them." Saying that something can be made better does not equate to saying that what we have now should be made mandatory. Right now there is no law requiring (for instance) roping up on a glacier or a technical climb. Should climbers be required BY LAW to rope up? It will reduce the number of deaths and the number of rescue callouts somewhat. Should Bachar have been arrested by the tool for free soloing? should Croft and Honnold? How 'bout Ueli Steck? If we don't mandate roping up then why argue in favor of requiring beacons - magic ones with pixie dust OR real world existing ones?
  14. This place is on a bench above town, but nice if you want a quiet sleep http://www.travelinbc.com/Retasket-Lodge-and-RV-Park-Lillooet.cfm there's also the Vic Hotel and the Jay Gee, never stayed there yet though

  16. the national forest land out by Potosi

  19. how much acid do you think Ron Kauk took over the years eh?
  20. Doesn't your tongue go numb after a couple hours Mike?
  21. Strange things can happen with those blow-up rafts. On my inaugural Siwash Rock expedition the tide was in and we used a blow-up raft to cross the moat. While rapping back to the base we dislodged a huge rock which hit the raft and knocked it out to sea. Pat lost the ro-sham-beaux & had to swim 100 feet to retrieve it so that the rest of us could stay dry crossing a waist deep 10 foot wide channel.
  22. Getting your name misspelled in the rescue news is a good trick to throw off the Googlebots...

    I BELIEVE HE IS EXPERIENCING THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS IN A TAUNTAUN STOMACH ON MT HOOD
