Hey, did anyone notice that Beacon is open? Maybe you guys could do more climbing and less jousting now?

reading comprehension fail.

Everyone happy now?

Hey, that kind of crap is perceived by many as being "business as usual" and you two jokers have contributed your fair share of verbal diarrhea slathered over other posters. It would get kind of lonely in here if I had to boot everyone for being a rude asshole, not to mention that I wouldn't be here either using that standard. Assholery is a fuzzy boundary, offers and implications of physical violence is a really clear line that I find easy to discern regardless of where my personal sympathies lie. That's the line I choose to enforce, but other Spray mods are fully empowered to act on their own limits. In any case, that particular freak show has been asked to STFU, and a continuation of hostilities is likely to cause (metaphoric) heads to roll. Peanut gallery monkeys are not immune to blowback consequences.

Wow, that is such a great picture. Incredible amount of stuff on what is essentially an annual glacier. The change between Saturday and Tuesday is stunning.

Peoples, offering to beat each other up will get you the heave-ho from this site. Threats and physical altercations will not be tolerated. That sort of thing discourages the folks we actually want to post here, not to mention its a violation of your user agreement.

You're gonna have to push off pretty hard if you want to hit the water! I like that TR the first time around, thanks for the bump. Orange Wall looks great.

You're not thinking it through GGK. Many people get their training on the government payroll, then move on to work for companies like whatever Blackwater changed their name to, and do the same work but make a lot more money. We spend much more hiring the private sector to provide military security than it costs to do it in house. Akhalteke has remained in the public sector, and frankly I admire that. Cut the military? Sure, I think we need to, but I'm not certain that his job is one that should be cut. I don't agree with him politically, but I've got a lot of respect for the small portion of the arc of his personal development that I've witnessed on this board over the last decade.

Much of the stuff over the water is not steep enough to be great DWS material, tumbling down a slab doesn't make hitting the water all that fun. You can probably find some stuff in the series of islands near Highway Rock. There's a boat launch nearby. Whitelaw's "Weekend Rock" covers a lot of the water access routes, there are two other guides which cover the land based stuff, though a feud between the two different authors lead to limited information sharing and great name confusion.

Yup, every Wednesday the weather is good. We're just south of Olympia, where are you coming from? PM me your email address and I'll send a waiver and directions.

You're really living in the future, it won't happen here until tomorrow

So, what did you hear him say? I can't tell if you're in favor or appalled. All I found in a casual research was this weekly address: It's nice and all, but I don't see the nerve you're referring to, so I'm guessing you have something else in mind. As far as building in stupid areas, no one does it better than Southern California, where folks build out in the chaparral, an ecosystem that has evolved to burn every 15 to 20 years, lots of seeds don't even germinate until after the next fire. How short sighted do you have to be to live in a dense woody area evolved to burn?

Ho man, thumbs up for the kindness of strangers.

That reminds me of the time Jay_B posted a halloween picture and I was shocked that he made such a hot chick, only to find out that I was supposed to be shocked that he'd dressed up as the hippie next to the hot chick.

I feel really stupid for not pointing out that toilets at Vantage are a really great development, thanks to all who've worked for this.

Actually? No, it's not important. That battle was fought long ago, and Raindawg's faction lost decidedly. He's like a southerner arguing how it was so much better back when the negroes knew their place. The world has moved so much beyond his black and white position, he's a historical irrelevancy.

Never mind what I said, I've changed my mind you little puke.

Aww c'mon lil tadpole, when you've made me angry I assure you you'll know it. This, this is just fun. oh, and it's an inside joke for the old hands, you should feel honored.

Well done! Any well rounded fanatic never gives up their tools, because, well, you never know. I've been happy to have a knifeblade combined with a lug wrench to open a can of tuna after an extended Rainier epic.

That west face direct pic is ver appealing. I've really got to make a first visit to Chimney one of these days, Idaho just keeps creeping higher in my regard.

I love that picture of the chicks on a ledge with an anchor right nearby, nice validation of the closure.

Response to what? Everything you post just improves your odds in the dipshit sweepstakes. Why should I be bothered with a point-by-point rebuttal of your feeble spray?
