Snafflehounds work for themselves.

Their record is a bit weak though. They try to compare themselves to Hillary and others who started at sea level and farther away. Patriot hills is much higher, and closer to the pole, and it does not require ascending through the transantarctic mountains on the Beardsmore, Axel Heilberg , or Skeleton (used in the ' 58 traverse) glaciers which are very broken up. They do use four-wheel drived vans at McMurdo, but they are limited to the ice roads around the station and to the ice runway. Tracked vehicles are the norm. Driving an unsupported van through crevasse fields is likened to climbing Mt Rainier solo. It can be done easily if all goes well, but what if you decide to drop into a crevasse? Trip over.

Just look on the bright side, Snafflehound numbers are increasing!

I am just getting over an 8 month knee injury. My physical therapist said I lost 1" of muscle (Circumfrance) during that time. Time to hit the gym again.

Our airlines industry is 3rd world. Take the train instead... the Coast Starlight and travel in comfort.

I'm starting to believe that the nodder is no more real that santa clause (who missed my house this winter) and sasquatch. Only children otter believe in the nodder!

We never went to the moon.

No, not even suitable for Cascade foothills.

One good place is Lolo pass on highway 12. There is a good parking lot, a USFS visitor center, and the Lolo hot springs are nearby. Just ski any direction, although south is best, and find your own hill. Lots of snow there.

Fly to Cabo San Lucas. Rent a car and drive east to San Jose del Cabo, then get on the dirt road following the se coast to the Sea of Cortez, Cabo Pulmo, Los Frailes, Los Barrailes. Then loop back on the paved road. Absolutely the best place in Baja.

Sampling too much of that Lentil wine?

Those pics are awesome. And definately taken from an airplane. The big one of Mt Olympus, you can see the hut on the snow dome, way to the right in the picture, next to panic peak. Then there is a clear view of west, middle, and east peaks. The photo shows the east side of east peak, just above the blue glacier ice fall. . If you look to the left of west peak, mt tom is visible. Good views of Olympus, thanks!

Caution MRE, spooning can lead to forking.

Snafflehounds are immune

Are you sure you didn't contract a bit of poison ivy rash? Crankyness is a resisual side affect of poison ivy.

In fact, many chiropractors ARE doctors. "Doctors of Chiropractic". I also disagree with the statement that MD/NDs and DCs "hate and disparage" each other. In this case, I think it was pretty dangerous to not consult a doctor of medicine, but I'm glad your friend is getting better. Chiropractors are not doctors! I got home from the canyonlands/Moab area last month with an aweful case of poison ivy. You dont want to know where. It came on a few days after exposure, not right away. Calamine lotion became my close intimate friend. I was told if it got bad, prednisone was the answer-but mine only lasted a week. Oh, and by the way, chiroprators are not doctors!

Tonight, 8 PM at WSU, Pullman, in the CUB. Be there. Oh, and by the way, the Final Answer is TELE!

Well I heard Stevens Pass is a 50 mile traffic jam happening. did they hire sport climbers? Silly Canadian alpenslogger...Sports climbers only chip good, solid rock; Choss, we glue back together. Big choss, now there are some good new bouldering problems to attempt for the next week.

If you are in the Olympics, remote Mt. Meany is fun and worth the bit of work to get up it.

I am stuck in Ellensburg, I-90 is closed, and for a few days? With all the diverted traffic going over Stevens Pass or White Pass, are there any intrepid travelers out there who have been over those passes today, and can tell me which has the best conditions, ie less traffic. Oh well at least I can explorre Ellensburg
