This is possibly the funniest pic I have EVER seen on this site.

I figure any of the mid to high-end tools are great, what you like best will be based on personal preference. I like my Rages, but I don't know anything.

I thought all BD biners are made of aluminum?

Excellent link, thanks.

I think he's talking about CO2 build up, not O2. Either way, you have to be sealed in a cave for a long time before you die of asphyxiation.

Lib ridge. Central Mowich. Edmunds Headwall. Emmons. DC. Fuhrer Finger. Kautz Headwall. Thermogenesis. Anything else? www.skimountaineer.com has some info.

Cool! Come on, people should throw fits over the feeding of mice to snakes. They're friggin' SNAFFLEHOUNDS for crying out loud!

A 6 by 6 by 6 foot room has enough oxygen to keep a man alive for a week (if I remember correctly. Catbird?). I doubt that O2 was a problem.

"the older ones took it in stride" "Hi Mom, yeah, we're having fun. No, just the usual, melting snow, cooking breakfast, getting hit by major avalanches. What? Oh, yeah, this cornice fell down and buried us. No big deal, search and rescue came by and woke us up to let us know what happened. Pretty cool, actually. I'll call again later. Bye!"

You can say the same thing about alpine climbs, or ice climbs, or snow slogs, or.....

Wouldn't half a double fisherman's work just as well?

Don't sewage vaults typically have concrete retaining walls?

Boy Scouts scare me. And their idea of winter camping usually entails building a cave fifty feet from the car, having it collapse during the night, then spending the rest of the night in the car. Hardcore!

Maybe if it were spelled correctly.

"You'll put someone's eye out with that!"
