  1. "Fear is the darkroom where the Devil develops his nagatives"
  2. Dave Page is horrible!
  3. Thank you I can sleep tonight. MOX=Metal Oxide Probably has nothing to do with the name Mox. Hinkhouse peak near Ingalls Peak. Named after Jimmy Hinkhouse founder of a sobriety based mountaineering group who died on Denali in '95.
  4. The other question with the name thing Muelefire Peak? I remeber in one of Becky's books reading a description of a peak named after a climber and him calling it rare and can not for the life of me remember what mountain: any help?
  5. Can't figure out second peak, but the first is Jberg. How about Formidable aka Daider.
  6. Wow Austin Post! He has taken tons of great pictures of mountains that are in the Becky books. Especially of glaciated mountains in late season-from a zepplin or a new fangled fixed wing flying machine maybe. Hey Olympic mountain fans is Robert L Wood still around?
  7. Bud is good beer. Just because it is'nt 6.99 for six does not mean it is a bad beer. P.S. if you are not into Republicans don't buy Coors.
  8. Could be somebody's pet? My turtle I had when I was a kid escaped for 6 months! My Dad found it in the garden alive and fine!
  9. I really liked it as well, but it was bad: do you know what I mean? Reinhold is a robot, but could I not put the book down. I don't know. ahhhhhhhhhhh schmidts
  10. THAT IS STUPID! I like to climb, and I like to be a tourist. Climbers are not better than tourists.
  11. Shark Fin Tower. Must resist drinking beer the night before. If any want to join our 2 man group email cnppnc@yahoo.com
  12. We had the forsight to bring the frisbee, but we camped on the ridge so we had to play conservatively. FRISBEE PICTURE!
  13. glad you posted sounds like a cool route. I have had toughts of driving out there this summer and doing it or the normal route, but all my climbing partners are married and tied down. I hate thinderstorms-especially when they make your thingy's humm. Thunderstorms are bad too!
  14. Dont bring any gear or rope. I grade it a grade I class 4. I did it in a half hour-any longer and you should stay off the route. I climbed down the route to save time so no need for an ax. Oh, there was no crux unless your a week climber.
  15. This is not about M*A*S*H's Colonal Potter? HORSERADISH!!
  16. Below the Oyster Dome trail there is a rock that me and a friend top roped. Horrible rock constant rockfall, but the belayer was safe because we had to belay from the top of a parked train since the rope did not reach!
  17. the book is Bellingham Rock by Jason Henry (Henrie?) A little dinky thing. Probably not available in Seattle. Up here it is available at The Basecamp downtown: REI probably has it also.
  18. Here is the log (follow link, me stupid cant figure picture in post) I humped the log to get across because falling bad. The log is a little slick and narrow, and brave people may walk across. Either way no problem. This was 2 weeks ago.pic
  19. I would bet the wonder Mountain area is pretty empty. I would guess that those 5000' summits are tough to obtain, and why? Miles of off trail for a dinky summit. I think in some ways it would be way cool though. The Olympics are really cool, a very neat mountain range.
  20. Olympics es bueno. THat is all. Out.
  21. No, but there is snow up there in the gully and such. Out.
  22. Doug Mckeever (Whatcom Community college geology instructor) did this- " On a perfect August day in 1998, just two days after doing the Sitkum Glacier route in fairly standard three day fashion, I did a solo "speed" climb of the same route in 7 hours and 54 minutes, car to summit to car (about 24 miles r.t. and 8,800' climb). I wish I could have just one race sometime where everything clicks like it did that day!" web page
