i just got this in my inbox with a virus attached... they trundle you on the mountain and send you viruses, what has this world come to?

on these long boring days at work, i do love to gaze out my window at the countless mini vans that drive up to the bachy parking lot. one by one, the gapers file out, they wander around, gape at the trail map, gape at the sign on the windows that saz "closed until July 4". Some even venture out of the 10 yard comfort zone from their car and walk up to the chair lift... and the real brave souls sometimes drive up to my building and yell up at my open window "ANYBODY THERE!? HELLO?!" such brave little gapers, do I reply, no. I just simply empty my piss bucket out the window and say "Golden Shower Hour BEYOTCH!"

i was supposed to go but got derailed at the last moment, would like to know condition of the road to cold springs if anyone has some recent info that would be great. tim

^^

PLAB!!!!! Becky said that freakin chinook pulled the tent down when you guys walked by. Didn't see you up on BT... we must have been back in the trees by then. Great picts Ben, we want some prints of Sierra, she is hard to catch still. A side note, sierra is chubbin on a dead deer carcass that she found up there, nummers.

thanks for the kind werds. i use an old skewl kodak digital, 2.0 megapixel, but at high res it can crank out a good 11x14 print. The key is to have a fast CF card with at least 256 mb of ram and you can shoot away. if anyone would like a high res file of any of my picts just let me know. it was a great weekend, little cloudy up here today, cool storm last night in town, but gawd what a great weekend.

glad you got to ski in, bummer on the car though. I killed a big ass buck 2 summers ago, and folks up here at mtb hit deer all the time, you really gotta watch dusk/dawn on cascade lk's but don't south sister ?

just got an ordered all finished up with cascade crags, good stuff, nice work fellas

can i it?

it sure is a pretty chose pile though ain't it?

I've noticed an increasing number of bend area sprayers on the board: myself, cletus, boonecounty, wazzumountaineer, others..... what do you say we hook up at the BBC next tuesday night?

Short Corn Report: (for those of ye who don't like the long ones) hiked into Chambers Lakes via Pole Creek Snow started ~6500 Slept, woke up Climbed/Skiied the SE Ridge of Middle Sister Snow still in very good shape, though small shot at the bottom near Saddle is melting fast. Stellar. Corn Report: Middle Sister SE Ridge alpenglow on middle and north sisters Timmay had been eyeing this gem for quite some time. Each morning on the drive into work, there is lil ol Middle Sister, the forgotten sister, the one that just doesn't get as much love as that tramp to the South who lets all sorts of boys climb up her south side. And for some reason little middle gets not nearly as much attention as her ugly sister to the north. Each morning, that naughty lil middle sister would hike up her skirt and show me that tasty little SE ridge, mmmm, very naughty middle sister, very NAUGHTY, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! I couldn't resist anymore, I had to make a date with this hill and go check out the goods up close and personal. So it was set, and I went forth to get me some alpine love, and left the Pole Creek TH around 10:30ish on 6/16. Silly me for considering that scoring a taste of that sultry corn patch would come easy, negative. Being a lemming, I followed some tracks after the Chambers lakes trail petered out into the snow.... eager to catch a glimpse of my grrrrl, I popped above timberline to find myself headed towards the Hayden. Just then the sun was directly over head, and the lovely flies came out to keep me company for the last few miles to the South/Middle saddle. After a long traverse up and down, up and down little drainages, I finally got to the ridge above camp lake. I decided it was time to find a camp, setup the 'sack, and read a book. So that is how the afternoon went, I attempted to drive away the dirty thoughts I was having about the girl just right nextdoor by reading a book. Soon it was time to chub, and time to sleep, I had a big date the next morning. morning view from camp Visions of plab and corn danced through my head the whole night, and sleep was just too good as I awoke at 5:30 am, I had slept through my alarm. Stumbling out of bed, I was able to snap a few prime alpen glow picts, but the warmth in the air made me realize I had to get my shizzy in the hizzy up in the southeast rizzle. Finally got under way onto a nice refrozen surface around 6am. Made a quick 1k feet up to the base of the ridge, and the snow had started to soften up already. I was a bit bummed out that my date was so wet and sloppy, daddy told me there would be routes like these so I trudged on. SE ridge of Middle Sister Nothing like hittin skinz up some steepish snow, with nobody else around for miles. The solitude, and the surreal volcanic surroundings always get me, I caught myself drooling and before ya knew it i was at the top of the ridge where it intersects the Eastern Face. view from ~9500 The corn sensors were off the charts, the gnar was warm and ready, and the xXx pornos were fiendin for the flava. I glanced over at the summit and decided that rippin the gnar was more important than tagging a summit... the snow was prime, I had turns on my mind so off I went.... gracefully swaying left, right, left right, dancing down the side of the mountain.... views abounded, corn flew, I was shouting with glee at this wonderful line! If there is perhaps one negative thing about skiing a big volcano, the descent ends way too quick. post turn grinnn, anyone got a smoke? I was back at camp around 9:30, and it was hot, and the flies couldn't get enough of my smelly ass. It was time to go, the date had gone well, but I just had to walk away. In fine form (like I always do when i'm out by myself) my "shortcut" on the way back ended up adding more time than i would have spent simply following my route in. Oh well, nothing, I mean nothing could put a damper on this day. Made quick time back to the TH after my "detour", only saw one other person the whole time, at the trailhead, wonderful Central Oregon weekend. Here's to you little ol Middle Sister You'll alwasy be on my mind.
