Any route that involves freshiez and lots of them, tex

I don't necessarily consider the skiing the end-all of why I'm out there but I definitely consider it a part of my mountain experience if it's a part of the trip. If there is good snow as a part of that experience you bet I'll get excited. You know most of the freshiez crap here is a troll in itself. At least I use it as bait. Who was it that was getting so ticked about it about a year ago?

actually his troll is working pretty damn well right now. so you've graduated beyond the Mount Hood playpen then tex?

Balls, you skin the approach! More weight but biomechanically less energy in my opinion. I can beat my foot times to the saddle easily by skinning. You are from Eugene - the fun Sisters routes are all early season, but not so fun to approach w/o skis!

tex don't tell me you WALK off Hood after a climb crater rock to T-line on skis: <15 min crater rock to T-line on foot: ~90 min

learn to ski punks. FRESHIEZ last I checked UIAGM certification required some serious ski skills. Take it up with the Swiss fools!

wasn't there a krispy kreme smuggling operation busted up in washington? some guy buying up a store's inventory, driving them to a location and selling them at a mark-up?

you're the one drinking something called café au lait and finding sexual innuendos in donuts. I recommend therapy, or at least check out the san francisco apartment market.

The hole makes that much of a difference? the bar allows rapid consumption by just shoving with hand, kindof like using a wood chipper. This is a messy operation with a round pastry.

I think GTO's have sold for upwards of 7.7 million!

sayjay some stuff goes w/o saying my dear. but you have to have something as part of a complete breakfast. greg way to get pg-13 on her ass.

OMG greg that sounds awesome. another dynamite choice: the salmon hash plate at Timberline Lodge before a day on the mountain, or after a night climb. eggs, salmon, potatoes, do the math then pass out by the fireplace with the free coffee

touché

Is there any better way to start the day?

DC also built the beltway for self-defense. The gridlocked traffic has the same effect as gypsies circling the wagons for another fine example of this strategy, take a tour of London's M25

I think the "t" means it has passed the "technical" tool strength tests. Most vertical tool picks have this rating, symbolised by a "t" with a circle around it on the pick. Most standard ice axes do not carry this strength rating

by the way freshiez

I do donuts through the elk herds and highmark kids sledding hills

but I hear a sled in Nelson B.C. goes a long way in winter....

A Ford F-350 with mudslingers or similar makes this picture. Stickers of famous Nascar numbers on the back and a mirror-polished rear differential are brownie points.

I find all this gun talk reprehensible. guns aren't the problem it's the belay slaves who use them.
