    my lame site

    that's some of the funniest stuff I've seen in awhile. BWAHAHA!
  3. One approach would be to fly into Adamant Meadows from Golden and tick off a bunch of stuff there from a camp in the meadows. Sir Sandford's right there too. Or fight your way up the trail from the reach. Putnam's book still has beta from the ascents in the 30's. Or just fly into Great Cairn Hut and pull out the cardboard box underneath the bunk with all the pertinent photocopies from the old CAJs and Putnam
  4. Here's another view from Pioneer in the Adamants. This is the other side, sort of. The stickle is the pointy thing in the distance. Steep stuff in there
  5. Here's a photo from last year. It is the middle spire thing. This is a view from Azimuth Ridge.
  6. It's a very pointy little peak in the Adamants. Pretty cool-looking thing.
  7. 2...1...starbucks over-roasts their beans. izzat what you want? they are a virus w/ no known cure. the day of reckoning is when you can see another starbucks from inside a starbucks.

    you could save even more weight by just carrying titanium salt and pepper.

  13. is 900 fill down provided or is this a bring-your-own event?
  14. It's SARS dude, stay inside...or better yet, I think there's some space on the ISS right now...
  15. as the saying goes, "better a mt.hood junkie than a bavarian crack whore"
  16. yes rather than remote sensing techniques the CVO has elected to simply observe the NW climbing community, who clearly will notice when an obscure, rarely-traveled area of the three sisters is rising centimeters over square kilometers damn the ground feels hot here!
  17. if you were really good at organizational skills you could reel in six guys to play some epic six square too. Basically required UN-level negotiation skills to set that up though, and to prevent it from breaking down into a full-on brawl.
  18. the weapon of choice:
  19. .13c maybe, but .13b? not a chance in hell...
  20. Look how much fun his avatar image has knocking that ball against the wall. Isn't that called wall-ball? That's what I called it in grade school. Man were there some serious injuries incurred in that game.
  21. a marine friend of mine knows a bunch of people over there. says they have no plans on returning for quite some time.
  22. wow 5.5 is way low. I would crank them up a fair bit or you might be seeing your bindings releasing on steep icy skinning traverses and stuff. that would suck.
  23. note juvenile ape swinging from vine to vine successfully w/o falling to ground or soiling diapers.
