Toast

If I remember correctly, in Casino Royale (the book) Bond takes his Martini stirred, not shaken, and it's two parts gin, one part vodka, one part vermouth.

Notice the little B (not little T) stamped into the head.

Or a hangar, nut and wench... I mean wrench.

Way more exciting that way, huh?

Careful Squid, we're watching you

We'll work on ten

Nice job :tup: Now, let's get you some helmets

He's back!

:lmao: Here's to ya

No snowshoes needed. Longmire gate is open 24 hours now.

I hiked up Friday and boarded down. It was super hot and had been all week. I hiked up in mountaineering boots only because I just bought a new pair and wanted to test them out. Otherwise, my snowboard boots would have been fine. If the we get a cold snap, you might want to rethink that. Tele boots would kick step fine, regardless. Snowboard boots would take twice the effort if the snow is hard in the morning. That's only the case for pebble creek, a short but steep section.

UUUUhhhhmmmm, NO. It does have men in it

The anchor bolts at the top of Good Timer are wiggly loose. I saw somebody out there with a wrench trying to cinch the hangar, but when I climbed up to it, I didn't trust the right hand bolt and just belayed off the Rap Route anchors next to it.

Sometimes I think of those ork like things in the Fifth Element. If you kill the leader, the rest won't know what to do.

thanks

That's what I'm thinkin'. From Canby do you turn off and head south to Adin? I think I took that way home two years ago, but it looks like a minor road on the map. Jogging east to Alturas then south to Susanville looks like the highway.

Bump. We'll have four pairs of students learning to lead at Royal Columns this weekend, June 02-03.

I'm heading out tomorrow on a badly needed road trip. What's the best route to go from Smith (Bend, OR) to catch Hwy 395 to Bishop?

I'm leaving on a trip to the Sierras tomorrow. My understanding is Whitney permits are gone. Anybody know whether California has a daily lottery or makes available a handful of overnight permits similar to what we do here in Washington?

I'd still lick your boots

I think suspenders are going to make a comeback.

My first trip to Palenque I had spent the previous day travelling 36 hour straight from Tikal. I woke the next morning swinging in my hamock surrounded by banana trees of the Chipas highlands. It was a hot morning by ten o'clock. I tooks a stroll to find a spring fed waterfall nearby. I bathed for the first time in three days that was more or less a cold shower. It was one of the best I'd ever had. Skinny dippin' under a waterfall on a hot day

Bad assed mutha'fucker!

Yep, that sounds just like her.
