nice - and that's the first time i've heard of someone seeing a grizzly up there too

this chick should totally be climbing the walls of her hotel room

i dunno, remember how easy that tauntaun went down when that gnarly old snow-monster swiped it? i'm thinking a big block of ice would do about the same thing...

damn bill, why can't you be an asshole so i can glibly say "is that what your girlfriend whispers to you everynight before you fall asleep?"

"feel that, big boy? that's pride - fucking w/ ya!"

too soft core for my taste

nooksack...so yummy (if you're into that kinda thing)...

"i wanna put my tube-steak in your sister. what'll you take in trade?"

la cunt used to have a far kewler view

great name - the piltdown man was accepted scientific fact for a long while - really trippy looking rawk!

does this mean ann margaret's not coming?

dirty hippies are the best as they all roll there own, leaving butts that decay in days - basics use cotton filters i think, which also decompose pretty quick. regardless, these mountains are tough/remote enough to ensure they'll stay plenty wild until that time when we waste ourselves and they go totally wild again.

and how much bacon would you approximate you ate on this trip?

i'm looking forward to this - look for me there - i'll be heavily intoxicated and tall

forbidden oughta be dropped for nooksack tower

the irish are highly skilled in getting themselves killed for noble causes

So is the Ptarmigan your ashtray? dude, a ptarmigan would be a difficult ashtray to use, given that it's all flying around and whatnot we packed our butts out - did you not read up there where i mentioned i was using them in my sleep system?

strange, i woulda thought a "grand tetons" one

my ground-insulation for this trip consisted mostly of empty whiskey bottles and cigarette butts josh, on the other-hand, had jim nelson's specially recommended totally-phat inflatable pad'n'pillow - another day or two and josh would have had a little "accident" no doubt...

fuck camping on snow in the middle of summer - i'll give over my environmental destructions if nature will promise not to give me cancer or rot me in my grave

well, pretty much done w/ the pnw at least...

perhaps remind us of the peaks on there? i seem to recall forbidden and stuart are on there, what else in the nw? liberty ridge?

you don't get anything near the gorge minus the oak! that lingering zombie-skin thing simply serves as a pleasant reminder over the weeks to come what is was that was worth so much pus

Yes, the Cascadian Couloir. Aasgard is a joyful walk in the park by comparison. cc don't lead to no pass though, so don't really count eh? what's a climbing conversation doing in spray?!?
