The objectives stand. Eve Dearborn is too inconsistent. I can still Judge AND compete, because I want the beer and a T-Shirt as well, and I would rather pony up the funds for myself than for some other slobs. Those who challenge my integrity should not compete, that simple. The selection of Corona and limes was based on the fact that I would rather drink 24 Coronas with lime than a case of something else. -J [ 08-28-2002, 12:15 PM: Message edited by: Necronomicon ]

Greybeard will be real tough with the road closed, unless you got a snowmobile ride. Oh well. Challenges shouldn't be easy. Suffer. As far as voicing my tic list for the year, these are only three routes of many, so I don't feel too bad. Also, I fall prostrate at the foot of any mountain I look at, and recognize that I am nothing, so my karma is OK for the time being. -J

As I was driving around this summer, I was thinking of Eastern Bloc alpine climbing competitions and how, from my knowledge, there is no Pacific Northwest equivalent. I've decided to abandon a lot of the logistical complexities and I bring to you... THE FIRST ANNUAL 2003 "HARDMAN" ALPINE CLIMBING COMPETITION There are three Objectives: 1)Spindrift Colouir on Big Four 2)North Face of Greybeard 3)Watusi Rodeo(with the Twight/Bebie direct finish) on Colonial Peak All three ascents must be completed between January 1st and April 15th, 2003. Photographic documentation for successful completion of each climb must be provided to the "Judge"(me). I am also a competitor. The first team of two, or person, to complete these three routes in the alotted time frame will receive 1 case each (that's 24 beers where I come from) of Corona, six fresh limes, and a T-Shirt declaring them the Winner. So, start your training now by laying in a tub of ice and beating yourself in the groin with a meter stick, if you think you're up for the challenge. -J

You should be my little bitch, whimpering and peeing on the carpet.

In case you're as retarded as my partner and I, 11 + 3 + 7 = 21, not some numerical value less than 21. My point? The Tuning Fork is best done in three days, not two. Say "Hi" to Mike at the deli counter of the Barkely Village Haggen supermarket, if you want some laughs. He's sporting his new "Aha" haircut, freshly pressed slacks, and would love to give you the meat. -J

I broke a rib sailing (of all activities!!), and did some associative intercostal muscle and cartilidge damage. Does anyone have any experience with this type of injury? Obviously, my main concern is when I'll be able to climb again. What are your thoughts on how long this type of injury may take to heal? -J

Although, what do you call an ascent where you hang at every bolt but don't actually take a fall?

Lets be nice. No one likes a bunch of frowny pants arguing. My thoughts on the new route: "Stain Point" -J

Wicked good...

Mosquitos follow a gradient of carbon dioxide from their location to it's source. You're stove is a great source of CO2. I use dry ice. Place a large chunk away from your camp, kick back, and enjoy the evening. -J

Mike and Coley Rule! Hardmen!

Three years ago, some dude CARTWHEELED down the upper gully and stopped on the trail, which is like a foot wide at the base of the gulley, with a casket-filling plummet into the void on the other side. Lucky! Speaking of heinous injuries on the Fischer Chimney's. I watched some dude try to climb Winnie's Slide in the heat of the day, wearing crampon's in the slush. He fell and shredded his calf with his crampon's. Luckily, he had just got us baked, so I was too stoned to really be there for that one. When michael_layton was a rookie, he fell fifty feet onto his back into an "Ice Cave" (moat) at the enterance to the route. Fascinating! -J

Does anyone have beta for camping in the Bugs? What are the options, excluding the Kain hut. -J

I think I left a condom in your ass, too. Condomstipated?

I left a pair of Wild things climbing pants on the roof of my car at the Stuart Lake trailhead, and drove away. Silly me! -J

Wave of flame, like "I'm so hot, I'll melt your soul" I agree, Capt. -Necronumbnot.

Get an early start. Lots of rock debris at the base of #1, with a tricky start due to the burg.

I just got a PM from Mike, he says he tried to solo Mount Jimmy Jimmy.

Or Dru.

I'll never be like you.

This is it.

This is my last post.

I have gripped the "Oh Jesus" handle more than once with him at the wheel. He hath smote the Mountain Spirit!!! The prophesies are true!! The fearless lunatic-child has killed the Mountain Spirit!! We will all pay for his transgression!! Burn your gear!!! Burn!! (Notice how he withholds his objective? What's that all about?)
