  1. The Arcteryx Outlet store in Burnaby (?) has tons of jackets and clothing at better prices. I bought a Theta SL for 250 CDN.
  2. is actually more important than brushing.
  3. Is there a summit register on the 8000m peak?
  4. What kind of fruity crap is this? This isn't a cappuccino commercial. Slap that man with a horsecock.
  5. Another vote for: Beckey places a register, it's cool. If the Mounties place a register, it's arrogant. What about the Mazamas and the Cascade Roavers?
  6. I'd say at least a couple months, depending on how you treat the first marathon. If you race the first for time and they are too close together, there's no time for training. You're either recovering from the first or resting for the second. If you treat the first as just another long training run, then recovery will be quicker. I tried running two marathons in a month's time. I meant the first as a training run, but I had to catch a flight and Albuquerque is at 5000', so my slow pace was actually quite taxing. Five weeks later, my time was slower than the year before. Naturally, YMMV. I read about a guy who ran sub 2:20 marathons every month for a whole year.
  7. So you take at face value the claims of everyone posting on the internet and in print ?
  8. Sounds like your beef isn't against summit registers, but only against who placed them there. If Fred Beckey places a summit register, then it's cool. If the Mounties do it, then it is a crime against nature and your personal ethics. If Fred leaves a piton on route, it's cool. If the Mounties do it, it is another crime against nature and your ego. At least you're consistant.
  9. Ramutas I need to go pick up my shoes tomorrow.
  10. So you pulled all the fixed gear on Liberty Crack to leave no trace of climbers?

    Real or Fake?

    What's with the tuna?
  12. I guess she likes clients with a sense of humor.
  13. What do pirates wear while climbing offwidths? Carrrrrharrrrrts! (Ooops, wrong thread.)
  14. O Dear Pinhead (L)Users: Can we require that Trip Reports be Trip Reports, not requests for beta?
  15. Hoping to find a friend and a lover, I'll bless the day I discover another heart, looking for love!

    zip drives?

    Forget Zip Drives. Burn CDs instead.
  17. Has anyone demonstrated that this actually works?
  18. Did you guys go back to the base and clean up all the gear that you dropped?
  19. FYI. I was desperate for a birthday present for my gf, so I got her a day of guided climbing with Anne Keller of the North Cascades Mountain Guides. Anne runs a series of programs targeted toward women called the Alpine Finishing School for Ladies. The girls spent last Saturday climbing routes on Liberty Bell and having various discussions on climbing and other outdoor activities. My gf enjoyed the day thoroughly and learned alot.
  20. Jeff Galloway published a book for training for marathons, giving specific programs for different target times. http://www.jeffgalloway.com/training/time_goal.html#15
  21. p1 takes big gear (hand+ crack). p2 takes small gear (finger crack) p3 takes medium gear
