you didn't mention who you want to make out, bad form yo!

I feel so dirty paying to ski, but i guess that is what you do when no longer in the 'biz' (though getting out of the biz was one of the least-regretted moves i ever made in my life) shredding the gnar is shredding the gnar friends. rejoice and be stoked that september is almost here. amen.

...watchgirlsmakeoutatthegrasslands thread sorry, the Subject was too long. spraysage has spoken October 7-9 it is. More details to follow Plab.

I might be interested in getting in on this action, let me know if you still need a person

nice! any pictures? How did the black crater fire look from Washington?

I reccomend going in via Jack Lake for your 3fj trip. I'm guessing the meadows are going off with wildflowers right about now up there (and skeeters), but it is an enjoyable approach.

but I do know someone who will give you shocker for your donation, PM me for details.

The old donation system kind of went by the wayside when the developers of it went off and started up their own BBS system. It will be back in the mix here before the holidaze.

hi everybody!

wow, just saw this thread. ++++ vibes from central oregon for Kurt.

i don't know about ttips.com but those dudes over at minnesotaclimbing sure know how to copulate dem bitches.

I went shopping in Sisters instead of going to the mountains. I love quilting.

what really sucks is having to slog in on cascade lakes hwy knowing that you could cover that same terrain on a sled sorry couldn't resist!

guilty as charged. you know me with my 550 sled, i figured nobody would really care if i poached the boundary. i'm just tired of slogging up volcanos for turns so I had my buddy tow me up. it really is too bad, and a few dipshits like this will really mess up access for the majority of boundary abiding sled nekers. i have seen some tracks pretty deep into the wilderness around ball butte and brokentop too this spring. i garuntee the FS is aware and the spy sattelites are being placed accordingly i drop brown coils on great heights on the tools who are poaching the corn.

eastside, represent!

nice job d00d. that pink belt will be yours in no time!

looks like fido has some competition. nice trip lee.

there was one bolt on the summit for a rap anchor. i didn't see anything else on the route.

dudes, i'm going to miss it, again. i got an invite for a river trip down the owhyee that i couldn't pass on. but RIP IT UP, LOL for me.

I have thought long and hard about using a wiki to create an online guidebook of sorts, and I really do think it would work well, but I also think it has limitations and really would fall short of the *ideal* tool. I'm cooking up trip report system version 2 which will have some pretty sickay features.... kind of a wiki on crack, or I guess about cracks, peaks, hikes, etc. If anyone has features they think a cool TR/online guide system should have hit me up in a PM or email and let me know so I can add it in. I'll have a live running version of my madness up sometime this month.

jlag actually took his board up onto the summit block and did a SICK 80' huck with a mute grab. Unfortunately my camera froze up.

YEAH, way to get it! I need to get to diamond this spring.

wow, fkn amazing guys. nice job.

Climb: Mt. Thielsen-Regular Route Date of Climb: 5/6/2006 Trip Report: Part II of my TR Series: There are other Mountains in Oregon besides Hood In this installment, the C.O. crew heads south to Mt. Thielsen. This was one of those PERFECT days in the mountains: good snow, good rock, good weather, good turns, and all experienced with a good friend. Grab a beer and enjoy the stoke! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jlag phoned Friday while I was working on a TPS report and a plan was hatched to head 2 hours South to go check out Thielsen. Weahter was looking pretty solid for Saturday down South so we set out Friday evening with visions of corn shreddage in our heads. Lightning Rod of the Cascades: Note the major (to the ground slide) lookers right of the large castle rock We arrived at the TH around 10ish and began the corn pre-funk. Clear skies, stars and cold temps were a welcome sign so the champagne of beer was flowin like water. We woke up to quasi overcast skies on Saturday morning, and a fog was lingering above us in the trees. Gear was packed, breakfast was chubbed, and by the time we headed up into the woods the sun was starting to poke through the fog. The firm snow made for a quick skinning through the trees, and soon we were getting above it all Mt. Bailey to the South still has plenty of snow to schralp If anything the snow was too firm at this point. We had to chill out a bit in the trees to wait for things to soften up, and once it did, the hike up continued to be wonderful, and beautiful: jlag skinning up the southwest side McLoughlin looking TASTY Once we got higher up on the face, the sheer power of the slide in the first photo came into full view. A point release high on the summit ridge caused a 3' crown to propigate and peel away to *the ground*. Pretty amazing, and we guessed it had happened last Saturday during the 2-3 days of warm temps and no freeze at night. The next treat Thielsen provided was a wonderful climb up the summit pyramid. Albeit short, the rock on the pitch was sweet, and the views were wonderful from the interesting summit. It also ended my lengthy drought of being on the rock... good times gapertimmy rapelling, if you look close you can see the pink belt With the stoke from the climb still rushing through our veins, we got to rip off the skins and ski PERFECT CORN down the SW face of the mountain. FKN STELLAR!!! jlag scoping his line shred the gnar brah!!!! The ski between the amazing rock outcroppings on the face was very enjoyable, and the corn made the turns fast and effortless. I heart cascades corn. We were able to ski all the way back to the truck where IPA and smoked salmon capped off the perfect day. tailgatin, with nobody else in sight An amazingly good time was had by all, get out and get it because its soooo good right now (well not today its cloudy and shatty right now, thus i'm sitting at home reliving the stoke from yesterday). Thanks jlag for the fun times. Approach Notes: Snow all the way to the trailhead, some spots down low are begining to melt out on the trail. Snowpack up high is getting thin in spots and will not last much longer.
