You're right Son of Caveman, women use sex as a weapon...the sooner you realize this fact, the better off you will be. Well, I don't know how much better off you will be. Single is the way to go, man...no obligations and all the meaningless sex you can handle!

Women get laid when they want, Men get laid when they can.

Right on...I like what your thinking, Dru!

To each his(or in this case, her) own. --who the hell said that? Different women, different preferences.

Sorry Kids...I be up here in Portland takin' care of bizness!!!

Actually Lisa, I have experienced the free heel binding but only on skinny Xcountry skiis. Coming to pub club-Ptown style?

That's it! I'm off to Big Mountain...see you suckas later! Hee Hee

KALISPELL, MT???!!! Oh, Montana how I miss you!!

Here are the pictures that I promised. Too bad I didn't get pics from our ascent of Mount Hood last month! Enjoy. (These pics take a while to load so be patient) chicpics Anna

I'm from Eugene but will be in Stumptown on the 8th-9th. You can count me in!!! I don't care where, haven't been to too many bars in P-town...sooooo surprise a girl from out of town.

Hey all of you that have not attempted this mountain yet this spring! As Lisa and I found out, it is a little too early to ascend this beautiful volcano....there was a lot of skiing to be had though! We took the Southern approach east of Cold Springs-near Smith Butte. The snow stopped our vehicle at 3,600ft on road 82 when we busted out the packs and headed up the road and then bushwacked to the A.G. Aiken Lava Bed using our steller compass navigation skills. Long approach-6 miles from our car to timberline. Camped at South Butte (8,000ft) and decided to head home when 50 mile an hour wind gusts prevented us from even standing at times up there. Skiing was great! This was my first ski descent so Lisa took me under her wing and showed me the telemarking basics. But I stayed with the alpine style cuz it was a little more difficult for me to manuever with my pack! Learning though. Ran into some mountain freaks the second night when we thought that the mountian was ours...three very nice men form Colorado. They shared our opinion on the horrendous wind and proceeded to descend to enjoy the ski/snowboard ride down the lava bed. Fun! Fun! Fun! Burly chic pics soon to come on this thread. Have a great summer everyone!

Well, I know where I was....getting spanked on Astro Bunny!!! You did awesome SK! Let's do it again....I had a lot of fun. Yah, Mister Old School on Heinous Cling was an amazing climber-even downclimbed da shit, truly graceful! What a couple of gapers we are, eh? ...well, not that the scenery was all that bad! My arms are so wasted!!!

Yah, I was supposed to go to Leavenworth (for the first time!) this weekend too and the same thing happened I'm gonna go to SMITH this weekend cuz the weather is better down here anyway, or maybe I am trying to get over disappointment. Come on down!!!

Yah, I'm there!

Hey sk, ready to climb this afternoon....what's with the weather, hey????? I know both of yaz!!

Thurs 7pm. I guess I will just wander aimlessly around the pub until I find some folks that might resemble climbers.:-) Never been there before. Maybe you guys can find me--long blonde hair, 5'10". See ya there!

Wahoo! What a super idea! I'm fairly new in Eugene, and a climber, of course. Would love to invite myself to this social gathering to meet more climbers (local, anyway). May I come?

Oh Montana how I love you! The rain isn't that bad...yet. Liked the lush forests and I guess I just wanted a new playground. Where about in MT are you from??

Hey Country Jake- Good to know that there are Eugene folks out there that climb! I will send you a private posting.

UNCHARTED territory...sorry.

The Canadian Rockies-unchartered territory to me but would love to see and climb them someday.

Broaden my horizons Dru! I am from Montana, so you all will need to show me what this beautiful area has to offer!

Mr. Scott Harpell, Rainier sounds wonderful. I have climbed it before but not by way of the Emmons-Winthrop Rte. I'll e-mail you on Hotmail.com to give you some info on my experience and contact information. Anytime you want to go, let me know, I have no restrictions on time before the 28th of May. So you go to school in B.C.? I have many questions on that subject as I am thinking of going up there myself for flight school. As for Mr. Alex, 400%, eh? In the Cascades or in the whole U.S.? Fortunately, and unfortunately it sometimes seems, I am on call 24/7 (can't be up on some mountain with a 2 hour response time)in the summer for dispatchs all over the nation including Alaska and Canada, mainly for fire but for emergency efforts as well, I'm sure I will be very busy-wouldn't mind sneaking a trip to Smith Rock in June before it really starts cooking though!

You folks on this forum make me laugh! I know that it might me a little early for this, but I am a seasonal firefighter in the summer months and never get a chance to scramble up mountains in the prime Cascade climbing season not to mention wanting to avoid the influx of people at that time. Looking for experienced females or males to climb any volcano in OR, WA, or Northern CA, anytime.(weather permitting, of course) Burly, fit, semi-experienced mountaineer chic with my own tent and gear. My schedule is very flexible in that I don't have one before May 28th. Will split money for food, gas, beer, etc. Have Subaru, will travel. amevanoff@hotmail.com
