your affinity for monty python quotes and characters is becoming more explainable now.

but it a neutrino is only 0.036kg and it only fell 9.14m

I didn't even realize the reference until google just filled me in. Ack!

fwiw I'd use the biner after thinking about how little momentum a neutrino has, no science nurd joke intended.

anyone who thinks more than 5 people is a reasonably-sized group for any climb on Mt. Washington (oregon). bonus points if any person in said group thinks rocks are harmless when kicked off cliff bands. even more points if leader of group believes this is a good place to teach someone how to rappel.

I'm just glad I wasn't shot. We need to come back w/full orange camo some hamms and cabela's catalogs. Access granted!

hahahaha a dubious accomplishment... and every post on topic and a valuable contribution to the climbing community...I promise more spray about over-climbed hood routes and modem-crushing irrelevant internet pictures.

ATG you just emanate such a glow in that photo I couldn't help but ask!

mule creek canyon is an old faultline the river gets squeezed through, all-natural as far as I know. couple fatalities off those first rocks before the coffeepot though! not a good place to swim. graves creek -> marial = classic river fun.

Interesting use of dynamite: Back in the day, Glen Wooldridge would navigate the Rogue River in southern Oregon with a bag of dynamite in the front of his rowboat. When he came to boulder-choked rapids that seemed impassable, he'd drop a bag of dynamite into the water, row like hell back upstream, blew a hole open, and on he went. Shaped the now super-classic class 4 Blossom Bar.

hope they check his cell for smuggled toques, that's the jailhouse currency up there. 3 toques keeps you worry-free when dropping the soap, so the word on north block goes...

Phoenix has been freed? I consider that a difficult aid route even today. Next to License to Bolt right?

A HA! BWAHAHAHA! you show'd em good. Yeller? Butter knife? AHAHAHAA!

You're thinking of Powell's books. Castle Superstore might have what you're looking for though.

stupid liberal arts students...

bring side-impact airbags!

Castle Superstore?

this has jk written all over it - "you should become a professional masseuse...yeah...that will do...I'll help you "study" anytime"

...or being pushed in the water by some Texan RV driver's gut. I think it's hilarious that oregon to Dru is the sea lion caves and the big o! It's just about spot-on!

damn would have been a good opportunity to recreate that scene from american pie.

it helps if you put your forehead right on the monitor for like an hour or so. That helps the brainwave absorbtion and it can tell what you thunk more better.

that individual in the purple sweater bottom-right...is that a scotchlite shirt underneath?

so is wool.

a close second, if not first, are telemarking chickas who shred.
