  1. If that 55mm macro is a Nikkor and is in good shape it's a gem of a manual focus lens.
  2. Last I heard Jagged Edge moved from Tride to Moab.
  3. A wee herd of Bichon Frisés just waiting to be hurled downslope for stability tests: Dig the top one's fro!
  4. "Pack ice is old sea ice."
  5. Yeah, deep fluff and schtip ice are a dog's bane in winter. If lots of laps in fluff are the objective dog stays home or in the rig usually. Once on Jefferson a friend's dog and mine simply would not descend a rather schtip and icy slope. We had to ski 'n carry them for around 500 vertical feet until the snow softened up. It was a lot of fun nonetheless and the dogs tails were wagging again once we hit corn. If dog's could talk...
  6. Sounds like you have to find your dog's comfort zone. If it's a hyper spaz pooch like mine it'll probably cope with anything save for schtip icy conditions. Have never tried booties. They'll probably either just fall or be chewed off. With my dog anyhow. As for duct tape, I leave it behind in the cold, cold weather. I've had better luck with hockey tape on frigid days when skins can lose stickyness.
  7. [more Hood]...Mirror Lake when the the temps and snow level are way low. Holy dog shit Batman! Kind of like right now. The knuckledraggers dig the Alpine trail which, when skinless, involves thumbing it up Timberline Rd. Saw about 10 of them with their thumbs out Sunday afternoon. I always try and give someone a ride so long as they don't stink too much. I let my dog be the judge.
  8. FOCUS! Ain't or-ee-gone I knows, but this ain't none too shabby neither:
  9. Huh?! Dig my Suunto lots. Avocet, now that was a failure prone alti-watch.
  10. Yes the service can make a difference. But, imo, the quality of your file and basic Photoshop skills can make the biggest difference. If your files are going to end up as prints it almost always helps to sharpen. Scott Kelby's books are great for learning digital manipulation and printing.

  12. I've bought sale items there and never had problems although I tend to not enter retail establishments seeking gear beta enlightenment. Meadows is a far more interesting, not to mention deserving, taget of armchair slander, errrrrrr, I mean spray.
  13. Speaking of swing... Shouldn't they be wearing helmets?!
  14. i overheard this dude talking on his cellphone one time. he said 'if the world needed an enema portland would be where they inserted the tube.' Ummm, don't you mean Chehalis? It's closer to Seattle anyway.
  15. shit works right
  16. Don't ya just love Xmas!?
  17. Can't mention Black Flag without mentioning The Nig-Heist. I'd have posted their album cover but it's pretty rude.
