How about the "Everyone trying to beat everyone else over the head with their politics, when really harmonious libertarianism will rule the day" Forum. Jon, I know it's a bit long but it's kind of catchy after you say it a few times. Greg W

Another time, Trask and I were attempting a winter circumnavigation of Lake 22, high in the North Cascades. About 15 hours in, the weather turned nasty and I started hallucinating from accidentally eating some of Trask's homemade 'shroom-flavored Gu. The rest of our party became separated from us as we were trying break trail. I started mumbling about Dr. Flash Amazing being a genius and SexualChocolate having some good political ideas, and such; Trask slapped me hard in the face and said, "keep it together, man, you're talking crazy!!" That snapped me out of my reverie and we sprung into action. Trask's power was superhuman as we carved chunks of of the lake to build an igloo to protect the rest of our group from the fierce winter storm. Trask was forced to skin and cook two of our work dogs, complete with a dash of Johnny's seasoning. They tasted great! The next morning dawned clear and crisp. We made it back safely and we all agreed that Trask was the glue that held our group together through that long night. [ 10-11-2002, 10:21 AM: Message edited by: Greg W ]

I'll second that. I promised I wouldn't share this with the group, as Trask is kind of shy, but this latest nomination has inspired me to share. Trask and I were attempting a new route up North; really sick, severe death potential. Well, I took the lead and was moving up some marginal ground with a dead snafflehound wedged in a constriction for pro. I got as high as I could but found that the holds ran out; I was stuck. I searched around and saw a bomber hold about 3' above my head - I had to dyno for it. I went for it...and missed. I was falling. When would the falling stop? It seemed like I fell forever. All of a sudden I was jerked to a stop; Trask had jammed a trekking pole behind a block and arrested my fall. I couldn't move, he lowered me to a ledge and downclimbed to where I was. He made a stretcher out of our packs and we made it down to a snowfield but it was too steep. I told him to leave me and save himself as the weather was turning ugly. He refused, dug into his pack and pulled out a small package. "We'll strap on the nitro and blast our way down," he said. We finally made it down and he carried me out to our vehicle. Thank you, Trask. Greg W

Too busy watching re-runs of Ted Nugent's hunting show!! Also, I have been celebrating National Squirrel Week this week. Need to write GW about declaring National Snafflehound Week.

Never seen it, but it sounds staged and contrived. In short, Lame-o.

Go down to the fish ladders on the Columbia and cut holes in the nets of the indians camped out there.

MMMMmmmmm...fresh smoked salmon!!! Seems to taste better when you catch it yourself.

I err on the side of safe, as opposed to quick, but try and move efficiently. I seem to check holds a bit more when downclimbing as opposed to going up.
