Barry, if we ever climb Rainier together in Winter, I know who is going to kick most of the steps and it ain't me!

Did he REALLY skin the snaffle with his bare hands?

A picture is worth a thousand words.

There is nothing worse than bad coffee. We ran out of the good stuff here at work and had to subsist on this mystery Kona stuff that has been in the freezer for who knows how long. The fresh stuff came in today- ahhhh.

Time for a recon. Bring a shovel and a chainsaw.

Do we really NEED this thread right now? Downer. We all down. We need to be elevated.

If you live in Seattle, it is unlikely you are going to see anything. Better plan a road trip to Yakima.

Soaking your tired dogs in a cold mountain stream then putting on your socks back on which have dried in the sun and are now all nice and warm and dry.

We're desperately bored, is what we are. Boredom brings out the juvenile in all of us.

Bush didn't care about terrorism when he was elected. Haven't you ever heard of Operation Ignore? Outgoing Clinton officials tried to have meetings with the Bushies to make a smooth transfer of knowledge on antiterrorism. They couldn't even get them to show up.

As I recall the route is three pitches on the NE Ridge.

Agreed. This is why I like to read Climbing Accidents in North America. There have been those that say "eeewww, why do you want to read that! How morbid". I tell them I read it to keep my head on straight and maintain a healthy respect for the dangers of the sport.

That joke is SOOOOO trask.

Cracked, the difference between you and scottbabsitter is that you know what a simile is.

I think you are mistaken. Thanks for taking one in the butt for the team trask.

Scott, if I could put your brain in a matchbox it would bounce around like a BB in a boxcar.

Nice edit, trask.

No more Amber_Buxom?

Lechery? I thought it was "treachery". Okay, for trask we will make an exception. You remember Ted Kaczynski, right. He was the Unibomber. He sent bombs in the mail. Trask is like that, except he sends filth instead. What he does is rip this horrible cold turkey sandwich fart. Then he has this machine that translates the smell into words. Finally he hits the "Continue" button.

"If this nonsense had only killed Treadwell, we could simply write his behavior off as suicide by bear. But it didn't. It also killed his companion, Amie Huguenard, and, so far, two brown bears. I'm sorry, but I don't know what names Treadwell may have given the dead bears." The bears had names for Treadwell and Huguenard: Supper and Dessert.

You left something out.

I meant to write: Soon they will chow down. Sounds better anyway because it is not in the "passive voice" that Microsoft Grammar hates so much.

Are there any other Utahans who post on this site?

Yep
