$4.50 on barrabes.

Anyone used camp pins? They are half the price of BD.

You mentioned some very different organizations. NOLS at least has some credibility in the outdoor recreation industry. Mounties are way different. And the mounties don't post job listings and then say "but to get this job you have to pay $400, and take a class and even then you probably won't get the job"

IT's a Hoax Good to know SAR is good as checking the facts.

So you have to pay to take the class to be a prospective employee? Screw that. Why don't they hire a qualified person and then have them take the orientation. It's called an investment in your employees. I think they are trying to troll people who want to get jobs in the outdoor industry to take the class so they can make some dough.

So you pack all yer shit in, but what happens when you put it all on and the thing is half full? Now all the weight is at the bottom and it's sliding around and what not.

Music while outdoors Rox. Screw all you haters that think is ruins the beauty of nature, y'all can have fun at the REI birdwatching course with your nature books and soft spoken guides w/o me. I'll be busy listening to my MD and rockin out to some fly tunes. I'm always hummin a tune in my head anyways.

We could have a bellingham friday pub club, and then all go climbing, or biking or some shit on saturday, though I could make the trek on a wednesday, it's always nice to see my friends up there. Beaver rox da block. Free popcorn a dope wallpaper mural and office chairs. Deep fried pickles. Smokey as hell though.

C'mon all the bums in bumfight were justly compensated.

I didn't know she officially cut us off. She deserved the skimpy tip we gave her then. I guess like 4 pitchers for a group of 10+ is a lot of beer, well maybe in Utah.

superior what? Lovers trask?

Good times last night. I guess I rode my bike to another bar and then home, so they say. The new orleans has good food, my only question is whether the place is conducive to a large group of dirtbag climberz that don't tip well, just order beer, and linger for hours? It seems like it may be a little uptight and more of a business, get the customer in and out, type of place. But if you know the manager than I'm sure it'll be cool.

To, from, or both?

For all of you simpsons fans; here is the best and most expansive simpsons site out there. Springfield Nuclear Power Plan (SNPP)

how else would he know who's checking who's online?

I wonder if we can overthrow the back room that's on the way to the bathrooms?

Mr. High, what do you mean? It only took one page to decide this week. LHS went to my gradeschool. Fellow members of the origins of plab.

According to REI, this boot: "For extreme performance on speed ascents or climbing on sport routes and big walls, these offer ergonomic design, lightness and technical performance." Sport route huh? I'll have to get a pair the next time I go to smith. Seriously though, they seem like well made boots. I would like to try them side by side with the scarpas.

The fang looks scary.

It was shaping up to be another "muir on saturday". Good to put it out of it's misery.

The trango Ice has a stiffer layer in the shank and doesn't have the "cushon" layer that the trango s has. The trango s also has more "rocker". So what's the difference in the trango ice and the trango ice comp? What's the trango extreme? is that different than the nepal extreme? Anyone used the kayland K1's? Regarding sportiva-There seems to be different info on different sites, wassup wi dat other sportiva shizz

Prolly one of those really specialized mixed climbing mods, same reason the points are filed off the ice screws.

Nice Mr P, I gotta get up there some time.

Here's a real alpinist. (Notice the crampons and Ice screws)
