gapertimmy

i think this year i'll plan tuff fest 2 weeks before l-worth, as the 2 weekends in a row was a bit much for some folks. more details to follow.

"Powered By Deez Nuts" with a little snafflehound next to it

is that the crag that is at the north end of green ridge? since the burn on the road to jack lake, you can see this pretty large tower waaaaay off in the distance. not sure if it is the same, but nevertheless looked cool

BWAHAHAHAHAH

Hey Thomas150, no need to spam your plug all over the site. Once is enough.

bend sucks. there is no good beer, no skiing, no biking trails, and definately not any hot milfs. move to wyoming, or i hear tacoma is pretty nice too.

hey girls, show us your ti-bloc-ies

insurgents?

The real burning question is: Which candidate will take the ever so important cascadeclimbers.com electoral votes!

sweet, way to get at it!

i posted a video of our fog fest in the freshies forum.

Climb: Mt. Hood-Snowdome Date of Climb: 7/10/2004 Trip Report: my name is gapertimmy, and i still have a skiing problem. its been almost 2 full days since my last hit. quicktime movie the snow is pretty booty whacked right now. this little lady is all used up and abused by pdx mangs. still a fantastic trip with my main homeboy jlag, and legendary erik showing up to throw down mormon boy style. were able to ski all the way down to the timberline trail, pretty plabio!

yeah dood! sweet write up, that was a fantastic day foosheeeezy, and as you all can see from the video, that (sno)boy can rip!

as they say, homeboy has a face for radio

HA steep, yeah this one girl kept asking me to ski down, and hike back up so she could give it a try. spreading a good disease.

Climb: Mt. McLoughlin-Thin Mint Cookies Date of Climb: 7/7/2004 Trip Report: my name is gapertimmy, and i have a skiing problem. those were my thoughts when i sat on my back porch, drinking a beer, and waxing my skis in the 85 degree weather. i bet my neighbors think i'm a freakin weirdo, but then again, their thoughts are dead on. i had been jonesing to check out McLoughlin, the jewel of the southern OR cascades, and a recent TR from Amar on T.A.Y. with a tasty picture of the NE bowl whetted the appetite for some July corn down south! departed the capital of gaperdom, bend, or. around 5am and headed south... arrived at the trailhead around 8:15 (after getting lost, forgot maps and directions to TH, woops) and saw no less than 10 cars in the lot!?!? WTF, my dreams of solitude on the pile o choss were crushed. the approach on the climber's trail is a pleasant walk through towering fir trees. every-so-often along side the trail i was begining to notice water bottles and sweatshirts cached.... gaper tracks! alas about 2 miles in I encountered the first crew of little 'britneys'. indeed, i happened to be sharing the mountain with no less than 45 young girl scouts. as i passed each pack of ladies the questions poured in: "Why do you have ski's on your pack?" "You are hiking in your ski boots?" "What is your phone number? You are core!" "Are you going to ski?" to these inquiries i always had a witty response such as: "Ohhh I'm just carrying these ski's for extra weight" "Ummm, I'm in training for a first ascent/descent on horsescock direct, pilot butte" With each questioning from the young ladies, I couldn't help but think that it is July, and I am slogging my ski gear in multiple miles to ski ~2k of vertical. I'm a freak, and I fucking love it! All pre-pubescent girls aside, McLoughlin is a great ski-hill. The NE bowl/face holds a variety of exciting lines, steep, narrow, and ohhh so purdy! NE Face of McLoughlin Got to the top around noon, snapped some pictures, signed some autographs, and then something happened to me that has never before, and probably will never happen again in the mountains. About 20 young girls congregated just below the summit to watch gapertimmy RIP IT UP extremo style. The crowd quickly snapped pictures, shouted cheers of support, and informed me that i'm crazy. Too freaking weird. SE ridge/SE face, i skied the snowfield that starts climbers left of the summit The skiing was great, quick turns up top where the snow field was thin, and then some big turns lower down... about 2k' of vert. I'd have to say that the season on this hill is pretty much close to being done... but if you are eager, and perhaps a High Schooler wanting to do some big pimpin, McLoughlin is calling.

crotchsauce?

i don't know if there is enough room for 2 'gaper_' avatars on snowdome, GAPER SHOWDOWN!

anybody planning on snowdome this weekend? hoping to get up there sat.

sorry haven't been online much. i'm guessing you can hike pretty close to the meadows by now without hitting snow, 2.5-3 miles

fwiw, forecast for central oregon calls for sun. if skiing is what ye be looking for, this will be one of the last primo weekends for big descents (continual without carrying) in sisters.
