Likelihood that event actually happened < likelihood that Bat Boy and Elvis are running for Pres and VP in 2012.

Side effects? Rapid bone spur growth, thyroid damage etc?

The new issue started shipping from the printers yesterday.

awesome! a never ending artesian well of chestbeat!

I just want everybody to know I know this guy who did a FA on Yellow Jacket Tower. I've known him for a long time. Not that it's any big deal. Not that it matters, but I'm the most experienced person who posts on this site and the trips I do are the raddest.

That's awesomely cool. It also might explain why eating calimari is what killed me!

Hey jon do you roll with the Red Scorpions or the UN?

I remember when someone registered as "D@n -" or a similar type name asked on NWHikers if it was possible to speed-hike the Washington PCT in a week. Boy, did some panties get bunched over there by that innocent query!

But he's not All White.

that rock looks just like your mom

It was Rodchester's photo (RIP)

Anybody remember the Vance Atkins accident story from Vantage where he pulled off a giant block, hit his belayer, broke his belayer's shoulder, belayer lost control of the belay, Atkins then fell on and hit belayer, breaking his ankle and rupturing the belayer's spleen? Yeah, helmet would have made SUCH a difference there.

I have a hunch it's more about form than content. If the trip report had been a one-paragraph "We climbed Baker via Coleman-Deming, great conditions, good views" type of things no one would have said much. The guy's trip report, however, lays out a million and one things they did "wrong" but doesn't take the appropriate "oh my god we fucked up and almost died" tone. It's more along the lines of "we fucked up and got lucky, so we rock!" So you have someone both detailing the mistakes they made and appearing cocky about it instead of kissing the feet of the 11th Essential. That's bound to attract the naysayers. On the other hand if somebody wrote a TR along the lines of "I toproped Classic Crack with the rope running through a sling, no biner. The sling is a bit melted now but I got up the thing" you might expect that someone would post up "You shouldn't run a load bearing rope through nylon cause it will cut the nylon and you will die" too. I didn't pay enough attention to see if these Baker guys really were just dumb and lucky or if they were hyping relatively minor details in their TR up into a supreme mediocre epic chestbeat. What exactly that was so bad that happened? They wore snowshoes, didn't take the 10 essentials, had bad weather and bad snow conditions?

What about Bat Boy?

I still don't get this. Information cannot be copyrighted, only presentation? A guide to the same area, different author, same routes, with different wording cannot legally be blocked - can it?

If it gets too warm the snow on the midway slabs on the Pup Butt will start moving and you don't want to be underneath when it does (as someone who posts on this board found out in May last year).

How much oil do they have?
