  1. Looking for an ice climbing partner?
  2. Howdy, I've got a TNF Westwind tent in good shape but the fly is toast. I called TNF and they want $140 for a new fly. Anybody know of a cheaper way to get a new fly? Anybody have any TNF connections?
  3. Hey Dru/Distel/Others, Can you post any topos, pictures, or other info about Chek and Cheakamus Canyon? I've never been there. edit: Basic Info <--click More basic info and topos <--click
  4. Smith Rocks, OR. Nubbin' grabin', crimpin', an mud pullin'. Darrington, WA. Friction slab! (a few 5.9 and below climbs)
  5. If you guys want a skiing fantasyland in AK, take a look at the topo of the Juneau Icefield.
  6. Dude... bringing a "Hansel" for the wide stuff is aid.
  7. Nice! I haven't been on either of those routes and now you got me stoked!
  8. I think the "flag fluttering" that those folks make an issue of supposedly occured when the flag was initially placed, not when the eagle took off. I believe the "fluttering" was actually caused by the wiggling of the supporting rod that holds the flag out. If you actually watch the video, it's pretty obvious that the flag is not fluttering like it would in an atmosphere. For an explanation of all the "moon landing is a hoax" evidence, see: http://www.astrocentral.co.uk/moonhoax.html Speaking of stupidity in space: Bush On Mars 2004!

    Bad Photo Contest

    Dude on the right looks like he has been skewered with a ski pole!
  10. DUDE! You can't put JOKES in the lost and found forum! IS NOTHING SACRED!?!?!
  11. Cool! Thanks to slaphappy or whomever for getting the website up.
  12. [sarcasm] Yeah, that would make it OK. That's why it's no big deal if cops beat up homeless people, cuz nobody cares about them. Injustice ain't injustice if you don't hear about it. [/sarcasm] You are a real shithead apparently.
  13. I think it stands for Deliberately Obfuscatory Mode of Syntax Or possibly, Delayed Onset Muscular Soreness. Geez, you didn't know that!?!?
  14. The RuPaul Face? Could you please mark on this topo approximately where you found the tent:
  15. On a totally unrelated note: I just thought this was a cool picture and wanted to show it somewhere. It's not mine by the way.
  16. COOL! I found this on the web. I think this is our "Mt. Chakachamna" from Chakachamna Lake. If I am right, this view would be from the NW. Our coulior route was on the south side. A few more pictures at this site: http://www.giseis.alaska.edu/Input/sigrun/sumar2002/chaka/myndir/chaka6.html

    It's Time

    This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never all dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and glowing, on sea and continues and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls. - John Muir The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot. - Michael Althsuler Suddenly, as rare things will, it vanished. -Elizabeth Barret Browning

    It's Time

    For eternally and always there is only one now, one and the same now; the present is the only thing that has no end. - Erwin Schrodinger ... time is not a linear flow, as we think it is, into past, present, and future. Time is an indivisible whole, a great pool in which all events are eternally embodied and still have their meaningful flash of supernormal or extra-sensory perception , and glimpse of something that happened long ago in our linear time. - Frank Waters, Mountain Dialogues, 1981

    It's Time

    There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven - A time to give birth, and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted . - Ecclesiastes, 3:1-2
  20. Heya Will. I'll climb witcha. I'm free weekdays. Keep in touch.
