Coffee crisp while in canadia

Toe jam, dinky doinks, hands off, the bong, boussonier (SP?), mikes books, gunsmoke. It was cold and f'n windy when I was there.

My favorite is snowboarding in crust where the board goes underneath and the crust plows yer shins.

Arent there houses and some sort of camp pretty far up? That may keep it somewhat clear.

I guess it's all a matter of perspective. Good/safe climbing coditions arent really the best for ski/boarding so icy/crusty can be good or bad. Crust over a bunch of soft snow could be problematic for a number of reasons, cause it might not be good for climbing or skiing. Did you get up on the route at all? Thanks for the info.

Icy huh? I was under the impression that was a good thing for alpine routes.

Boingy is good, less shock on the gear. It's just an observation about the different characteristics of half ropes as compared to singles.

Yes, a true classic. "You know, I pride myself on being a good host, so I'm obliged to offer you a beer, but I'm so darn mad, it's going to be mostly head!" -- Ned Flanders, "The Joy of Sect". episode info The most expansive simsons info site

You'll save a lot of money on tape. I'd never done the full on tape gloves, until I went to josh.

So what's y'alls opinion on these jewels? If someone pulled these out at the crag would you jeer or look on with jealous envy. I use tape when needed.

I was schrund climbing toproped with 1 icefloss and I fell and it stretched roughly 5 feet. Boingy.

5:00 I'm out. Time to drink.

You are quite the cunning linguist.

Is that a play on my wine rationale Mr Perkins? (or are they really twice as good). The way I see it is don't skimp on ropes.

Of course. I shouldn't have even asked. Pricey but well worth it ay?

Where in the greater seattle area can you get the edelweiss stratos?

What about a CC satelite that we just plug the GPS coordinates into and we can get detailed data.

So they are running the new Y wall as a seperate entity? That's too bad. I used to volunteer there and it was free.

Wow thanks. I'm all about the hotkeys.

Maybe it's through cascade crags

B'ham rox if you ask me. I lived there for 5 years and still go up often. The YMCA actually has a decent plactic gym, for a YMCA in bellingham. It's no vertical world in terms of size, but they just expanded. For the cost of a membership at a rock gym you get the whole YMCA membership. There's always fun stuff to do. The beaver inn has deep fried pickles. The cost of living is cheaper than redmond. As for outdoor climbing, there is bouldering at larabee and a cool slab to boulder on at this little cove on the water right before there, not sure what that's called. Oyster dome has a few climbs on it, though I've never climbed the wall I've sat atop watching after riding up the trail from the I-5 side (blanchard hill trail). You will be close to darrington as well as squirmish (about 2hours methinks). And dont get me started on the mountain biking. I would probably move there if I could get a decent job.

Point taken Matt, I am only playing devils advocate here. Really expensive wine is a lifestyle as much as it is taste. It's like fancy watches, most watches will give you the correct time, but that tag huer is so nice lookin'. Another point about wine relativity also related to above mentioned point, if you buy by the wine spectator ratings you can get $10 bottles that a rated just as high as many more expensive bottles. Always serve the expensive shit first cause you won't notice the rest.
