xtremo pond skimmer dude

i *might* be able to swing it. any beta on how the snow is up there since the last storms?

saturday- skied freakin POWduuuuur with all my close buddies at bachy (but we missed cletus, he has been seized by the denvoid!), powder in late may is plab. sunday- fullfilled husbandly responsibilities... hung with my parents, sat in the sun on the back porch monday- extremo mt dude day at bachelor, pond skimming, i actually made it accros the pond this year!

ask him to phantom hump the couch, its dope!

ohhh the double whammy might take some arm twisting, ouch ohhhh well, why the fahk not!? i'm down!

I'm hoping to find another foolish peep to setup a car shuttle on Lassen early this week. Skip work, lets ski the north side!

This belongs in THE NEW OLYMPICS ACCESS BATTLECAGE FAIRWEATHER VS JOHNDAVIDJR FORUM

there is a little bit of a shoulder melted off (as of before this last 12" of snow fell) with room for 1 or 2 rigs. the devil's lake th road is plowed out and has room for 2 -3 additional cars. My advice is to get there as early as possible.

I'm gonna have to agree with this one too. From what i saw before this last storm, there were some pretty nice running surfaces down here. A fair ammount of rain fell on the 3 sisters area before this last blast of 5-6" has been dropping. Furthermore, substantial winds have been cranking throughout the past 24 hours during the snowfall at 7000' avg 20mph gusts to 40 mph W-NW at 9000' avg 40-50mph gusts to *70+* W-NW There hasn't been a good freeze-thaw cycle in quite sometime 'round here, so indeed play it safe.

yes.

discuss....

here's a list of the fine movies that some h4xx0rz uploaded to one of my webservers yesterday: 'Ass Driven' 'Anal Addiction' 'Ass Angels' hmmmm do we see a trend here? 'Barely 18, Number 9!' 'I'm Into Lesbians' 'Sinful Asians' and lets not forget: 'Young Asian Cookies Dripping... ' well dripping love sauce. gotta love the internet, and of course sploited windows servers providing bandwidth and storage for the fine folks at irc evilpanties.net!

Right now it is a toss up forecast. The wx in bend/redmond is looking solid, but the snow level is dropping in the mountains (wet snow is falling right now at 6k)... and the mountains may recieve some showers. slushiez!

yeah jlag, yer back on! what he said, but you really should get some skis mang!

well, i did see some boot pack in the canyon headed up to moraine lk, not too much postholing there. if you got going early enough, and if it freezes up you shouldn't need snowshoes. the ridge above the lewis to the top was starting to melt out, and i'd imagine with today's rain it will be melted out, all depends on the weather though.

i can lead 5.7 too, but only on a good day. i'm staying as far away from smith and all you wankers as possible this weekend.

Climb: South Sister-South Side Plab VOL2004 Part 1 Date of Climb: 5/25/2004 Trip Report: You know i'z gotz to break off some for my grlll south sister too. I can't be givin all my love to middle... Today the plan was simple, go up to brokentop with 7 japanese tele guys with schralper. ?! Unfortunatley en route to meet my friends from the land o the rising sun, senor schralper informed me the international outreach mission had been canceled. no big deal me thinks, rumor had it that the cascade lks hwy was opening, i drove up the road. bastards. the plowed road still sealed tightly behind the fahkin gate. I decided to go work instead . Fortunatley, schralper came by to get my arse away from the computer, and, well, the rest of the day just got better and better. The gate was opened at 8:30ish, the official cascade lakes summer of plab 2004 had begun.... i knew it was time to go check out that SICK line down the south side of south sister, south side of south sister, south side of south sister, say it 10 times in a row. Well it was hot, damn hot, and i got a late start (THANKS ODOT ), but it was still very dope to be a lone gaper on such a popular mountain.... not a single person in sight for miles, all this corn, all mine!!!!!! Suprisingly, there was a nice little icy layer on top of the snow that made skinning up quite enjoyable. Soon I was chillin up on top (well not that soon, its a freaking death slog, but sooooo worth it), enjoying the solitude, and takin in the wonder of what is called the 3 sisters wilderness Middle and North Sisters from South The aforementioned icy layer had softened up just so, revealing a tasty ass little stash of corn... mmmmm. Corn kicked up from turns slid down the firm surface making a neat little whissssssssssssssssssssssssh sound as i skied down. Life is good. HOLLA ATCHA BOYZ GET SUM (quick, its going to melt fast) Gear Notes: saucer boy Approach Notes: snow all the way to the road, luge run down to devils lake is IN. not a whole lot of parking at all along the highway, all trailheads still snowed in.

2 words: Three Sisters timmy just rode 5000' of corn
