Place piece, hook fifi in, test with bodyweight... Depends on you style really.

And add a little bit, cause you can always reach further than you think when you are desperate!

The guides I know (quite a few) find that guiding clients and teaching classes is so different from being out there having fun, that at the end of the week they are raring to go climbing for themselves. No problem burning out there. If you want to make a good living at it, it seems that you have to approach it as a business. You wanna be a guiding company, not a guide, if you want to live better than cheque to cheque. It's hard on the body too. You might not be out there pulling down on 5.11 every day (although it can happen), but there are other overuse injuries that are common amongst the guides I know. Say goodbye to you elbows if you do much multi pitch work. Pulling two ropes all day seems to kill them pretty quick. Check out the ACMG website too (www.acmg.ca). They have also a certification program similar to the AMGA. Most full mountain guides say that is similar too getting a university degree in terms of time and money. Good Luck.

You's gotta raise the body to get bigger tires in there, that is the only way to get more clearance. I'm betting those tires are bigger than average, they just look small under the excursion. The real way to get clearance is to use portal axles like a hummer or unimog. 18" under the lowest point of my truck! That looks like a pimp rig anyway. Who the hell wants chrome springs???

Wrong. It is a double wall tent, and the fly seperates if you want it to. You just don't seperate it in normal use. From the Marmot website. Bold mine.

What movie was this vehicle used in? Oh, wait, it's not out yet. It will be in the Disney movie "The Miracle."

I've only played with it in the store. It sets up real easy. You can pitch just the outer and leave the inner tent behind for an ultralight bivi style shelter. It seemed plab to me, but I've only played with it in the store.

No Unimog for you then Sold a Volvo at 350k (kilometres about 240K miles) on the clock. It hadn't had a working odometer in a long time though.

This really sounds like a warranty issue to me...

Revived so catbirdseat can learn the true meaning of plab. And so all the newbs like me can enjoy it.

Like me , otherwise, what she said. Funny, allison and I were talking about this whole thing in the chat room a couple of days ago.

How about the sound of a REALLY BIG ROCKFALL when you are in the tent and can't see a thing?

Another vote for MEC, unless you need the haulbag strength duffle, the MEC ones are well made and cheap. duffles

Done, you can pay me later

I'll bite (sorry j_b)! Should we compare those numbers to the numbers of Americans who believe that Saddam was actually involved in 9/11? Or should we compare them to the number who beleive that WMDs have been found in Iraq???

Actually I think he was talking about them upholding laws that he doesn't support. Like the patriot act stuff etc.

Why you post twice? Why you post twice? Once is good enough.

You know who you are. Check this out.

I just said "if you want," you know, so you could study without distraction.

I could ban you if you want!

What are you studying? Chat never works for me either...
