Good cause most of the guys here are too busy spraying or chasing selfish pursuits to take a girl on a proper date anyways. If you are real and serious, my friends and I have some routes we want to do soon and if you tell me what you are into and where you are moving to I'll tell you what I know about the area. You should find plenty of people to hook up with here, if you're for real. If not you'll get shunned and sprayed on. Ready...Steady........

Going a little further on SMACK I did catch a nice video of Lauren Lee pulling plastic while wearing a mini-skirt

You cross dressing, crack smoking ukelele player...

No, lummox

It is a great feeling to softly caress the snow. I'm not always in the mood to fuck it. No pun intended...

Fun!

You aren't worth a toss you mingey scruttocks licker

Oh, I forgot to mention, the weather out here can change in a heartbeat...sorry. We're getting drenched out here in the Islands. Hope it is not so bad up on Shuksan Some how I don't think that is so. Damn, I was looking forward to sunny days coming up,wed-fri, so I could head up to the Middle Cascade Glacier and Formidable/Spider or up North to Challenger. If HWY 20 is open it looks like I will have to head over to Mazama. Any one want to go, climb/ski/hike?

Amen Brother....

Are these guys really carrying guns?!?

As far as Boston Basin is concerned, the Cascade River road is gated at mile marker 20 which means you either have a 3 or an 8 mile hike/ski in (I can't remember) just to the parking lot, so allow for that. If you go I may see you up there. I'm going in towards the Middle Cascade Glacier. I'll be the one in the camoflaged Unimog... BG

Fuckin' Idiot

True, I now ski with old T3s and like the power and tourability as well as their dryness. However, I still have my Snofield II leather boots and love them for blue groomers, corn snow and fast tours where I am not carrying a heavy pack. Iain, if you go plastic, go low cut, the best of all worlds. Keep the extremes tho.

Yea, the snow levels are staying pretty low thru the week (3000f-4500f), avy rating for the weekend is considerable changing to moderate below 7000f FWTIW, not alot of precip coming our way, sunny wednesday and thursday. Are you shy of snow or rain? If rain then you could hedge your bets and go for Silver Star of hwy 20 East of Washington Pass, you'll have to approach from that side because the pass may or may not be open. If you do go there, let me know which approach you take. I might go soon and would appreciate a report on conditions. BG Shuksan is pretty sweet tho

Whaddayamean?! Shuksan is probably in great condition. Let me go see....

I also recommend a lesson or two and both of Nils Larsen's instructional videos, "Freedom of the Hills" and "Beyond the Groomed". These tools will help you avoid hard to get rid of bad habits.

Your weakness is...

What does that have to do with "chicas" in Prana tops

Prana tops?!?

Don't succumb to the hype. I've seen some sick shit pulled on skinny skis and Asolo Snowfields. I learned on Karhu Nansen Mountain 210's with the original Voile plate bindings and 1950's style leather boots that I drilled holes in the toe so they would engage the pins of the binding. Asolo Extremes are bomber. Just practice transitioning from a snowplow and dropping into the turn and back....repeat. There you be

Any one want to go up to Spider/Formidable next week to hike/ski/climb/look around? I have a high clearance 4WD, a tank of gas, and I found a place to get Olympia in the grenade bottles.

Has anyone actually known of a carabiner blowing in a direct pull (gate open or closed, not cross loaded) in actual use? I have a bunch of bd ovals and like how durable they seem to be but they are heavy and not comparatively strong. The question really is, are they strong enough?

Holy shit! I used to go out with her in high school. I can introduce you but you should know a few things first.

DFA is just marveling at your grasp of the latest trends in interior lighting, Martha. Now go back to sharpening your knives and polishing your guns, you little color-coordinated paramilitary freak.
