This happened in Mongolia: On my second day at the research site in Mongolia, Tuuggi (a mongolian college student, also 20) and I went out to do a long radio telemetry day. We covered 40km in just under 8hrs and were absolutely beat as we were getting closer back to camp. About 2 km away from camp we heard a motorcycle somewhere and turned around to see two guys wizzing across the desert on this old russian motorcycle. It turned out to be one of our horsemen and his older brother, but I didn't know this at the time because it was only my second day there. We sat down in the dirt and sand, me still thinking that these were strangers, and one of them pulled out an unopened bottle of vodka. The other one went over to this old bike and started to unscrew the blinker light. I couldn't figure out what the hell he was doing at all. He brought the blinker light shell over to us and used it as a glass for the vodka. They poured it out traditionally and the four of us finished the bottle in 8mins! I was timing because that was by far the fastest I'd ever seen a vodka dissapear. So by this time we're a little tipsy, sunburnt, and really dehydrated. They tell us to hop on the bike (of course Tuuggi knows who these guys really are but just doesn't tell me), so we climb on with our packs and everything. There are four of us on this little russian bike with our packs and radio antennas hanging off the side just crusiing across this desert steppe with no road. We pulled into camp and everyone burst out laughing. Four pretty much grown men on this tiny bike, and we're all just red as hell in the face. Probably one of my best memories from my trip. Someone got a picture of us, but I haven't received it yet.

choss

madras, OR idiot face. bwahahahha

cc.com needs an aid climbing forum about as much as it needs a bouldering forum.

sometimes rap is really good. I tend to listen to a lot of Muse, that shit pumps me up. Anything with a little bit harder type rock. come down to the Turbo Monkey Thunder Dome and listen.

DO NOT USE SPRAY PAINT!!!!!!! crazy polish bob spray painted all his gear orange, and now every time we go climbing it rubs off on the rock and leaves it orange. If you want to cover more of your gear than just using nail polish just go get a can of AUTOMOTIVE paint. It won't come off and you can cover more than with a little bottle or two of nail polish.

bring 'em over!!! you'll give me a cam, and I'll give you a crashpad and a tour of Bald Mtn in return....? bwahaha ok sorry.

yeah you're right, I forgot...Rudy is like 15lbs with no muscle......

Nolse has height and weight on his side.....but Rudy is all fuckin' Hulked out!

if you told him he'd probably be like, "well yeah, I'm pretty weak"

....did scarface on saturday??? rad!

Colin's not 21, you'd be arrested for supplying to minors.....

I am listening to Rach as well... Ashkenazy recording (simply the best) of the 1st and 2nd piano contertos. I'm a big fan of Van Cliburn, concerto's 2 and 3

mixing it up between Yonder Mountain String band and Rachmaninoff. I can only listen to classical while studying mongolian

"dropping coils on your head since the invention of gravity"

little of both, we liked to mix it up

indeed! However you have to wrestle them by holding their horns....

Yeah it is going to be in Bellingham. Thanks for the generous compliments! The song is "Hands Away" by Interpol I listened to that CD a lot while on my trip, especially while in the Gobi and it just seemed to really fit with the places I traveled to. The skull picture: Those are the sheep I worked with for two weeks, Argali (Ovis Ammon), they are amazing animals! Fun to wrestle.

I still have nightmares about that night....

yeah I'll take gloves and socks! people in mongolia will love it
