You may think that being able to make my own decisions about my life is selfish, but I don't. How much of your personal freedom are you willing to subvert? You obviously believe that you should be supporting homeless people and that the government should be our nanny; I, however, do not. Being able to make your own decisions about your life is a good thing, and not selfish. But actually making decisions about your life without regarding the effects on others, or not caring, is selfish. Not understanding the difference between these two things is bad. but left-wingers trying to impose misguided limitations on our freedoms is also bad.

no political stuff, please. funds collected will go to the SMOS Foundation (Save Muir On Saturday).

I will be leading a 100$ per-dinner-plate climb there if anyone is interested.

What's a "garmet"?

sounds just like an email virus/chain letter kinda thing...

how come everytime you guys update the site, most of the links on the main page no longer work, i.e. active topics, or the 25 or 40 most recent topics... isn't that how most people navigate the site? don't you think its kinda weird that the main page of cc.com shows a bunch of errors? i am so deeply hurt by things like this: Content-type: text/html Software error: LoadStyleTemplate no longer takes a number.Backtrace: lt.cgi:131 -> sub main::RequireCode<br /> Backtrace: ubb_lib.cgi:1828 -> sub (eval)<br /> ...because i can tell you that loadstyletemplate really should probably take a number...

It's Rainier, with an "i". Good luck.

She sure is easily influenced by others

Caveman prefers to keep quiet about his ascents. He doesn't spray about them like some other gapers on this board.

Let me know if you find somewhere that isn't on this list...

From someone who signed his guest book: "And everyone says it is pretty hard to climb, and the thing is we aren't professional climbers, and from what I read in the Billings Gazette a couple of days ago was that <b>Granite Peak is the 3rd most difficult mountain in the U.S. to climb.</b> "

He said bush... heh heh hhhehh....

classic! " It was our summit day in which we planned to conquer Granite Peak and we had slept in a whole hour" "We then reached the massive glacier that we had to climb. The only direction it led was straight up." "It was necessary for me to put my life on the line several times to save Justin\rquote s life as he shot down the mountain as a result from one false step."

Do you not know how to spell "veteran", or is "vetern" some kind of slang? You said you grew up in a rural area, right?

Another copter crash! No one injured luckily.... http://www.king5.com/topstories/NW_062502WABcoptercrash.1c95ec30.html

From the testimonials page: http://www.sflifestyles.com/testimonials.asp “I am much more secure and happy here.” “I was widowed and living all alone in my two story home. I decided to come to Thumb Rock for a trial stay…Everything was nice; the rangers are very friendly, meals are great… they even do my laundry… The best thing is that I have security here… If something happens to me at Thumb Rock there is always someone here to rescue me. After four months I decided to sell my house and stay at Thumb Rock. I am much more secure and happy here. My children feel better about it too.” John Kosar, (resident & former owner of Kosar’s Clover Farm Store, Lyndora)

cc.com summed up: "You are a loser. At least I get out and climb, while you spend all your time spraying on this site" "No, *I* get out and climb, and *you* spray on this site" "No, *I* get out and climb, and *you* spray on this site" "No, *I* get out and climb, and *you* spray on this site" ........

Well, at least those pieces of talus on the ledge are solid. And that's clean dirt I see.

Don't forget about the furry space monsters that live in the ice caves (as reported in the Molenaar book) You could visit them.
