  1. Does anybody have a copy of WA's top 100 peaks in some sort of spreadsheet format? Otherwise a list in a format to easily convert would be great. thanks, -josh

    Seattle's #1!

    LOL. Or Denver. I can say from living nearby that it is a seriously over-rated city. It's gorgeous 25 miles to the West but Denver itself is pretty so-so.
  3. climbing info, anyone? I would like to take my dad up it. what is the glacier like? Any place to find info? thanks, -josh
  4. Tom Tancredo is an idiot...one of Colorado's "finest". The state should be proud to call him one of their own. This is the kind of man that PP and friends would eagerly wait in line to cast their vote for.
  5. Sweet climb guys. I am really hoping to get into that area soon. That looks like the climb to do. You say to go get it soon...think it will be shit on a stick in early August? Also, I don't see Ouzel lake on the map below the Depot glacier. Is it a new lake exposed from glacier melting or is it unnamed on the map? -josh

    Game Over!

    The first Civil Rights act was pushed and passed by the Republican party. Yes, I am fully aware of this. The "Republican" and "Democratic" parties have kept their names the same, but little else, in the past two hundred years. Remember the Democrats were once (not long ago) the party of the south and the Republicans the party of the Northeast. Sorry to say but the Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt would be Democrats today and hold about as much in common with today's republicans as a platapus does with an orange.
  7. What is the best approach to use to this area? Beckey mentions using the Galene Lakes trail from B.C. but I have no idea if this still exists in any form. Are there approaches from the U.S. side that work better or are faster?
  8. sweet, got what I need now! thanks, -josh
  9. ok, i must be blind or dumb, but which one of these many fine mapping products do I want to view standard topo information? In other words, what is BC's closest equiv. to USGS 24k maps?
  10. I am looking for TOPOS for the Canadian side of the Spickard/Redoubt/etc. group. Where is the best place to look? thanks, -josh

    Question our emperor? How dare you, you unpatriotic rebel!!!

    Game Over!

    Insulting someone's intelligence or patriotism doesn't support an argument? hehe. it just occured to me - if questioning the intelligence of the president's actions (which, in this case, are retarted) makes you "unpatriotic" what does constnatly belittling the president for lying about getting a blowjob constitute? Sounds like treason to me!! Not to mention they harped on a president who inmproved the country across the board for EVERYBODY versus a select few, who, ironically, are actually quite a bit poorer than under Clinton. Fucking right wing idiots...they must thank god every day for discovering fear tactics and ideological brainwashing since their political policies have proven throughout the ages to be inferior. Hey, PP and co., what do you guys think about bringing back slavery and child labor? What about returning to no workers rights and the inability for a minority to get a fair trial? Your political brothers sure have left a positive legacy on this nation.

    Very true, $ for $ the D70 is far superior to the digital rebels. Compare the two side by side and you'll find the rebel quite inferior, IMHO. FWIW, the D70 is basically a D100 with a plastic body instead of a magnesium. For climbing, it actually saves you several oz.

    Buckner

    If last year is any indication of the typical schrund season on Buckner, then the NF coulior schrund will be a major pain in the ass. It was nearly all the way across (and deep) in late April / early May. YMMV. -josh

    PP is the king of right wing propoganda dropping. He then dissapears and never really supports his argument after his initial turd-drop.
  16. Yes, hmm, a blowjob by an intern or an illegal action by your top political advisor. I love it when you dumb fucks bring up Clinton every time Bush does something stupid. Get a new line jackass. Only a dumb fuck like you could defend parsing the word "is" and then act outraged over the semantics of "convicted". What the hell did I say about "convicted"? My point is you dipshits bring up Clinton every time Bush is attacked for genuienly bad things. "But yeah, Clinton lied about getting a blow job!" Shut the fuck up and get a new line. Peter Puget: Proving once again the conviction of an ingorant man when he thinks he knows what he is talking about. You and your unpatriotic homeboys are what is driving this country into the shitter.
  17. Hahahha! Awesome man. A typically awesome TR. Don't worry, we'll hook up some equally stupid shit when we get together in August!
  18. Yes, hmm, a blowjob by an intern or an illegal action by your top political advisor. I love it when you dumb fucks bring up Clinton every time Bush does something stupid. Get a new line jackass.
  19. Two things... 1.) Hopefully he gets charged for his rescue. 2.) If the homeboy who had cut his own arm had been smart enough to give a "worry time" to a contact he would have an arm right now.
  20. Nice job Eric! That is a great climb, I remember having a really good time on it despite freezing my ass off
  21. Yeah, I've got some, unfortunately the areas where the views to the S pickets are best (on the E-W trending part of the ridge, between Luna, and the W Fury/Phantom area) was where we were climbing in what was basically a whiteout. I'm going through all of these pics and I'll see what I can find.
  22. Yeah, as Wayne alluded to, it really makes a difference who you climb with, esp. if the anxiety index gets up there! It was damn fun, and I think we have a strange or funny name for practically everything we encountered along the way. -josh
  23. Pro Mountain rules. I have been happy with everything I have bought and Jim always takes care of his fellow climbers, who just also happen to be his customers. He was willing to meet Wayne and I at the shop last week early morning so Wayne could get a piece of gear he needed before we left for the pickets. That was awesome and much appreciated! It is also just fun to check out all the neat new stuff that comes out that you wouldn't see shopping at the main stream places.
  24. Do people ever do the entire traverse of the 11(?) peaks in one day or generally just the Pinnacle->Eagle group? If anybody has done all of them, do you have a trip report or something with info? thanks, -josh
