Several people have received court summons. It's easy to say fight the power when you do not have a court summons in front of you! Do you also have to have that volcano pass if you have the NW forest pass? If so, that's ridiculous! I think people have sent in photocopies of their passes before. I would guess it is expensive for the forest service to go to court since they probably have to bring in the ticketing ranger, on overtime pay, to testify. Seems like a pain for all involved, but it's not like the USFS is known for their logic, fairness, and simplicity.

We saw you coming down from the climb (we were on the upper Eliot). Dude, you can walk down the west moraine to Cloud Cap! No need to charge across the Eliot and set a new line up the stacked cinders high up on the east moraine! Anyway, good you gave it a go. Weather turned poor as we were leaving later.

oh and that's bruce springsteen in the upper right corner.

yeah the question is if the wearer is a boy or a girl. I believe the two in the back row with the tea cozies on their heads are its spotting team. man it must be cold in that room for that many beanies to be worn!

take a trip through hood river when the gorge is kicking and you'll see how popular this is.

Darth Vader? What is that (besides the deadbeat dad who blew planets up)

If you can't see a starbucks, it's graduate level. jeezus, trial by fire!

No, no one has ever been up Glacier. and I.Funes, it's a seminar, not a module.

Don't a lot of people use fisher chimneys as a descent route from the north face? It doesn't sound like the best choice based on the above. Sorry, I'm not too familar with Shuksan.

and his shoes are just KILLING him! hhahawhawahwhahaw

he's probably up on the hill. I hear conditions are spectacular above 10 grand right now. the chute is full-on water ice.

You guys are sick. And doesn't a hot carl imply the sender and recipient are lovers? That is a reciprocal question, don't bother answering. I think the "warm carl" involves saran wrap somehow. I might be mistaken on this, though you two seem to have the first-hand details.

If you don't pass out, you will be high as a kite. Yes, you are crazy for trying in camp.

pathetic, transparent excuse post ham image.

There are still a few openings in the cast iron summit register hauling seminar...

Sounds like good hogsback training. I'm thinking of bringing a riot shield up there in the future.

Can't have too many stories about that. Post away.

I have a story about drunken eskimos on vacation in guam, but I'll be sure to do a search for it first in case it has already been discussed.

what's he supposed to do, "oh I better do a quick search for the drunken bear story to make sure it has not been posted before"

geezus! I bet that was bleeding heavily at first. Glad to see you still alive...and awake.

Maybe you could fashion one out of dogbone draws

Yes, a fine sample from my C.V. that clearly reinforces bullet point #2 in the above reply. It's all about quality.

1) I realize that 2) I don't spray on other's trip reports if they are not already in spray. I think my record shows I have standards and common decency.

I wonder what Kerry's Silcox Hut split-times are.
