    "Somme. The whole history of the world cannot contain a more ghastly word."
  2. For all the BS about the Cascade Trifecta, the 'uncage the soul' guys seem to spend more of their time playing dodgeball. maybe dodgeball would help you mike?
  3. There are limited sites on the spit. Most all of them will be taken by the time you get there. You will end up sleeping in a puddle and wake up with at least a dozen slugs crawling over you. Also bears swim across the river at night and attacked someone there last year. The Spit Sux. If you want to dirtbag it, drive past the Hydro Project on the Mamquam road. At least 10 km.
  4. Just follow the most used road and backtrack if that doesn't work... it's not rocket science.
  5. The population of predators changes in reponse to the population of prey.
  6. There is some logging equipment in there but no active logging at the moment. Don't know if the road has been graded this year. Call Cattermole Timber in Chilliwack or May Trucking in Hope to arrange a key. You will have to try and pick it up by closing time on Friday which could be tricky if you are coming from Seattle, or even Vancouver. 25km sounds bunk. The first gate is at 13km and the second around 17km. The peaks are near 20km as I recall. Anderson River Mountain itself is a lump of choss.
  7. Borrow for peace of mind. The road should be in good shape as far as the left fork to the bridge and pumice mine. From there it's 2 hours of hiking with no 4wd if crossditched, or 10 minutes of driving with 4wd. So you save yourself 4 hours on the weekend with 4wd.
  8. All about Kemo Sabe
  9. Are you thinking of Kemo Sabe?
  10. Do you only have a 2wd?
  11. Well from what I was told it's the Chehalis place name for Elbow Lake
  12. How much do you want to bet?
  13. oops, Kwikwexwelhp
  14. Kwikwexwhl'ep is pronounced just like it is spelled
  15. Although someone told me in an email today that Tall Skinny People is nice and shady and cool
  16. It's too hot to climb any roped routes right now. Go bouldering till 3 PM then swim in a lake till sundown. Then go solo Diedre in search of booty.
  17. From gripped.com June 27, 2006 - Trotter Climbs the World’s Hardest Crack Canada’s own Sonnie Trotter has freed one of the most coveted crack testpieces in North America, Squamish’s Cobra Crack. It had been attempted by many of the world’s hardest climbers, most recently by Swiss crack master Didier Berthod. Trotter tried the route 30-40 times over three years. He says “The rating seems to be falling in around the 5.14b/c mark. It deserves a variable grade because of it's thin nature. For some, the climb may feel like 5.14a/b, for others the climb may feel like 5.14c/d and on some rare occassions it could very well be impossible. So, for now, it's certainly the hardest pure crack climb in the world. Cobra is 30 m long, with the crux pulling over the lip around the 2/3 mark. It involves huge dynamic throws between one and two finger locks, pain is ever present and the mental crux is overlooking the pain move after move. The redpoint crux comes over the lip on a slippery side pull, the feet are next to nothing and it takes momentum and a huge throw to latch the final edge, at which point you're about 15-20 feet about your last piece of gear; it's really exciting.”
  18. chris said it was 2wd to 1 km from the end.
  19. ooh yeah, they're gonna be really mad that people know there is a speed trap and are slowing down and not breaking the law! that's the same reason they arrest traffic reporters for reporting where the speed traps are on the radio
  20. with feeling
