  6. if you have high speed internet... download http://www.openoffice.org/ its free and does the same things. you can save your files as .xls just like microsoft excel
  7. I have a pair and love them. perfect for moderate snow routes, good for approach. i loosen them up for the descent once im back on the trail or safer terrain. make sure you wax them up good. they have heel and toe bails for heel and toe bail crampons. stiff sole is nice on steep ice/snow.
  8. there was a nice snow cave built next to the locked door a couple of years ago. room for 4 or 5, shelves and flat floor. i took a nap in there on the way up.
  9. try spelling yokum as yocum... it normally sees a few ascents a year as long it comes into condition. there are probably years no one makes it up that route
  10. good to hear - did they grade it recently? what did you do up bird creek way?
  11. yup - just be prepared to drive carefully and use the entire road to miss potholes, etc
  12. as far as i know yes. also i do not know of any access issues. retired could probably shed some light and possible beta...
  13. well amazon.com has heard of it but it shows not available. a local library might have a copy.
  14. hey alpinfox.....try firefox it automagically adjusts the pics to fit your screen width.... http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
  15. I was wondering the same thing. I couldn't reach anyone at the ranger station but here is the road info from 1/04/05. I know that you could make it a half mile or more past Morrison creek last week. The snowmobilers have been breaking trail up that road. Road 8040 South Climb Gravel - One Lane 01/04/2005: Snow from Morrison up. http://www.fs.fed.us/gpnf/recreation/current-conditions/roads.shtml Mt. Adams Ranger District 2455 Hwy 141 Trout Lake, WA 98650 (509) 395-3400 TTY: (360) 891-5003
  16. road is passable to morrison creek. trout lake rec'd 6+ inches of snow this weekend.
  17. I'm looking for a new 2005 calendar for my desk. Anyone know of one that has some nice mtn p0rn or climbing pics? i currently have a clyde butcher (black and white pics, sort of like ansel adams) hung but im getting tired of looking at the mini january 2005 at the bottom......any thoughts? thanks
  18. i guess i should have used acronym finder http://www.acronymfinder.com/af-query.asp?String=exact&Acronym=tg thanks goddess
  19. excuse my ignorance but what is 'TG weekend'? you could also stay on 84 and then head south through hood river. there are several small chain hotels along with bed and breakfasts.
  20. and make sure you are not parked in the middle of the road. the county mounties like to tow people even when the road is blocked.

    Best Helmet?

    Thanks for all the info. The Ecrin Roc is looking better and better. I really want something that go over a warm hat or be used in 100 degree heat at Smith (although I hear it's not cool to wear a helmet at Smith). Thanks again.
