Call this guy: John McGowan, Oak Creek Manager, 509-653-2390 Let us know what he says.

New here?

Get 8mm ropes that are rated as doubles and twins. Problem solved.

I'm still ice climbing on my Grivel G-12 strap-on crampons. Maybe one day I'll sharpen them.

Epic doesn't either.

YOU WIN I did!

Driving less reduces consumption.

Kotex Crampons

Valentine's Day.

Outdoor and More in Seattle. After a couple years in the pack, the seam tape started delaminating. But hey, they're cheap. They are definitely less sweaty than coated nylon, and the full side zips can be used for venting.

Pope would be proud.

Any tips for getting skins on and off quickly? Storage?

Most of his Democratic critics this week were reduced to offering only grudging praise for the successful Iraqi elections. Yet John Kerry who had predicted nothing but failure in Iraq under Mr. Bush, remained as clinically defeatist as ever. When asked by Tim Russert on Sunday's "Meet the Press" if Iraq was now less of a terrorist threat than two years ago, Mr. Kerry said: "No, it's more. And, in fact, I believe the world is less safe than it was 2½ years ago." Tell that to the men and women who ventured out on the streets of Iraq to cast their vote and proudly showed their ink-stained fingers as badges of courage. Praise for the Iraqi elections was nearly universal around the world, with even France and Germany.

More? What winter?

You speak as if it's a bad thing ...

There was no climbable ice on Blackcomb last week either.

Here's Synchronicity on Jan 25.

The gov's election in Washington wouldn't pass muster either. Not surprising that Gregoire has lost interest in "making sure that every vote is counted" since the last count was in her favor. Just another lying politician.
