iain

it's like the Scott expedition to the south pole

ice tools are damn heavy. I say get a short light classic axe around 55cm.

nice post dfa! good info

mattp I was simply basing the above statement on what I have seen here, not the media as a whole. I did not attack them when they posted, but I can understand the skepticism that several have expressed here about their motives. duchess, do you show up here specifically for details on climbing accidents and nothing else?

I thought one of the biggest problems with fuel cell technology was the lack of a cheap way to produce and distribute hydrogen

Bringing a second tool when not needed. Using a second tool when not needed. chalking up too often. letting a grade convince me I can't do the moves letting a grade convince me it should be a cakewalk not keeping my heel pressured on steep skinning

what up caveman

I remember Gary Payton back in the day at Oregon State and when he came to my junior high school for lunch and stuff. The Sonics were always a deadend for Payton, this will be good for him maybe

Not focusing on keeping my hands warm. Not drinking enough. Face-out french downclimbing steep ice w/crampons w/ speed. Overswinging on steep ice when scared.

if it was by the road you might get DFA to show. skiing in would develop (and hence ruin) his sporto thighs

perhaps part of the reason people have problems with these news folks is that they only show up here when someone is in trouble. I'm not sure if we will see comments from those two again until there is another incident (but they could prove me wrong right now, and I would be pleasantly surprised). I wouldn't really expect them to be around if they are not interested in climbing, but it does look a little vulture-like when they are only here for the tragedies.

the space needle? under orange alert? are you mad?

actually the Blazers need to fill out their bench a bit so music museum please

nah that's where all the weapons of mass desct. are kept. saddam is actually a marsupial

nice cross-bedded jurassic aeolian deposits in the background

hmm, so less likely down the hood river. the white river definitely looks like it sees some action, and recently.

hard to say. maybe the outskirts near gresham but I think a blast to the south would not damage portland significantly. our water supply from bull run might be vulnerable. if all the ice on hood melted immediately, where would it go? I would guess hood, salmon and sandy river watersheds. rainier ice melt seems like much more of a threat to major metro areas, where they've found all those twisted stumps buried in the backyards of seattle's suburbia

don't mess.

and portland residents when the west hills faults decide to wake up. we're all DOOMED

ah the double post, how retro of you

fun running on the sand w/ some dude yelling w/ bullhorn: KEEP UP...DON'T FALL BACK...KEEP UP...DON'T FALL BACK...KEEP UP...

I believe it's "Cliffs Notes" or was there a guy named Cliff who ran one of those essay selling rings? I'll take 2 grams of Tale of Two Cities please.
