I have a bunch of gear I wouldn't mind donating but I would like to know that it is going to a real place and the right people who need it. Not someone who is just going to resell it. Is there any way to confirm this Bob? Oh, and Fuck You other guys

That is Classic. Thanks Lowell

Go get it Keith! It looks great

Go to Trip Report Index in the upper right or Mt. Rainier National Park like you did here and do a search with South Tahoma Headwall as your key words. If nothing there, then go buy Mike Gauthier's Book. TR's are for actual reporting of trips, not inquiries. Looks like a fun route. 12 mile approach tho, not many peeps around...be prepared

climbingboulder.com to some degree....

Discovered the load and got the stoke...

AHHHH I see that spindrift you spoke of. What a pain that must have been. You left out the postholing, the 10:30 am committing Alpine start (we woke up at 4 am to snow, fog and 20 foot vis and went back to sleep), the pulling the crux and topping out in the dark, climbing the knife edge ridge to the top assisted only by a weaka and a myo, down climbing the East Ridge during a moonless night, waking up to rain and wind, postholing down, hiking that brutal trail, getting back to the truck at 11 am only to find I had just left for a three hour hike ten minutes ago kinda hardship, and the fact that you did not take my truck down the 20 miles to Marblemount for burgers (must have been the beer I left ya )....I will have to go to your website Dave to hopefully get all the gory details! That was a fucking great climb based on a good yet seriously committing call!

Great TR and Good call. Sorry to interrupt your dream as I came whipping into the parking lot at midnight with Rage Against the Machine cranked I didn't see you guys in the It was excellent meeting you two and thanks for introducing us to all those cool Rangers, SAR guys and Sheriff I was impressed to see that all those guys were happy and not annoyed about having to come up there. Not that I would want to test them any further on that. It was quite a sight but good to see you back and successful How are those feet Dan?! When Bug and I got down Sat afternoon and saw your truck still there and the gate to the road open, I knew something was up. Always a tough call: "I will be back by___" or "If we are not back by ___ call it in" or "We should be back by ___, if not, give us another 24 hours, then call it in" You never know what is the right one till afterword...Good luck with the wives. I'm feeling your pain. Did you find a florist on the way home Peter?! I don't have one, but this is a case where a cell/sat phone would have come in handy. Way to get out in this weather and show everyone that this is not the off season Cheers

WOW! That is some tribute Happy Happy Boss H

Thanks

UGGHHHH!

I think she meant to say, "a sexy Goth with a swiss watch"

Tonite, I had Coq Au Vin. MMMMmmmmm

Excellent writing Your voice is completely dialed. Please tell me you worked hard on that...

Dru's got it right. For top rope soloing, the Troll or Yates Rocker (same same) It is the best, safest and easiest on the rope. It is solely made for this application. $90 new

Let's do it!

It's the "bad" side of the Molar Tooth

You have to feed the Amanitas to Reindeer (I suppose regular deer would do in a pinch), wait around and collect their piss....then drink it. Their livers will filter out the bad and pass on the good

OH And if you are going fast on icy roads, with an automatic, and you want to pull a 360, downshift...

And 4WD will not help you stop once you get going

If you have lost control of the car and you are spinning out on the ice, steer into the spin... And don't touch the brakes

It hasn't been the same since they changed the format...

We did Garibaldi kinda fast...
