Lowell Skoog posted some information about a W-E traverse from Snoqualmie Pass to Cle Elum Reservoir some time ago. Stud. M. Volken claims a *first* traverse similar to this involving several peak descents. He calls it the Snoqualmie Haute Route or some other Euro trash name. Some old school mountaineer probably did it in 1937 and called it *Fun*.

My guess is that the majority of the people on this board are not cognizant a certain percentage of the time. Nor are they experienced enough to make a true judgement based decision about why we are going to war with Iraq. They see all government as inherentely evil, but that's only because the majority of you were raised under the feeble banner of 90's Clintonism. Make NO MISTAKE. Iraq is a power capable of and fully involved in supporting the decline and fall of American culture and interests worldwide. If you want to continue to enjoy the life you have then get off the couch and learn to fight. Fighting for your way of life is as old as time itself. War is terrible, but being sucker punched time and time again by the Muslim extremists is a shameful way to go down. The only system of a down around this world is the one that believes that using nerve gas and ramming airplanes into the side of buildings to achieve stasis is the way to go. BURN BAHGDAD BURN.
