It's a lot shorter flight to Pantheons from Mike's hangar, and the Bells are more fuel efficient than A Stars, but the big aStar at Hagensborg is a total beast - four big climbers plus a massive amount of gear move no problema.

But not this weekend, cause it's going to snow.

No, his mind is not for rent To any God or government. Always hopeful, yet discontent, He knows changes arent permanent, But change is. And what you say about his company Is what you say about society. Catch the witness, catch the wit, Catch the spirit, catch the spit.

Excellent trip report. The standard route is a popular hike and has been rated as "moderate scrambling" or "Class 2-3" in various guidebooks. Even allowing for ski boots and the presence of snow, calling this 5th Class might be pushing it a bit.

OMG the Military-Industrial-Eddie Complex!

You don't think the two are connected?

Extensive testing by Boreal with Gullich, Bachar, Hill and Moffatt proved that for two shoes with same rubber, one purple and one green, the purple one climbed better tha the green one. Same thing here.

There's a route in Wanaka called Fuckityfuckfuck (21, 10c/d) which was named so after something said by the leader during the first ascent...
