I don't remember the thread it was on, but you deleted the pic after a few of us started inquiring. It was of a nice granite tower, I guessed it might be near Stuart, someone said Finger of Fate (I doubt that). You PM'ed me about it.

Nice work John, you had been promoting that for a while. Wish I had been there. BTW, where was that photo you posted from again.

Speaking of replacing bolts. Where are some of the routes that need to have old 1/4" spinners that need replacing in the 11worth area. For example, the last time I climbed 'Tober (10a on Icicle butress) the bolts were in bad shape. Any others?

Planning on heading up to the Enchantments this weekend. If anyone has been up there recently (or better yet, is up there later this week) I'd love to hear about the conditions or see a photo? Looks like it proably snowing right now.

What do you need done, I might be able to help.

I don't know about the bears, but watch out for Sasquatch!

One thing is certain, those tele guys can NEVER keep up on the way down.

I'd like to find a good one, it would be good practice for the Legendary Banked Slalom,

I wasn't arguing against it, just pointing out the problems I have. I love my splitboard and don't think it is a bad idea at all. Once again, we should have a splitboard trip this winter. Maybe we can skin up and ski Silverstar or some other stiff in the Wa. Pass area.

OK, maybe I overstated my case before. I can change modes quickly in my living room or in spring snow conditions but in typical Washington snow I have issues with snow collecting under the flange on the base ring. You guys don't have a problem with this? It isn't like it takes a ton aof time but compared to guys on teles (I may just need to change who I ride with LOL) who just peel off their skins, I take a long time. As for hanging out at the top of a line and not rushing to change modes, I do that after a long skin up, but if I'm just yoyoing on some small ridge, I don't hang out after every lap.

Mountain sleds rule! Pick a place to ride and I'll be there.

Sorry I missed you Moss. I still had a good day though, did a little exploration.

Bosch??? Get a Hilti, it will work even faster!

I never realized it before, but I'm rather unprepeared when I go to the gym.

I'll be in 11worth Sunday. I'm fat and out of shape from to much whitewater paddling this summer. What did you have in mind?

THe late season advice is good. Other than that remember that they are ALL a pain to change modes in. As a result they are great for long climbs and descents but suck for yoyo-ing or touring that involves frequesnt transitions from ski to board mode.

Cool!

The Mexican food is decent.

A damn good tr even w/o photos, although, I am dying to see the pics.

I climbed with Lisa and her husband Steve Petro (OK, I was a blelay slave) last fall, they are just about the nicenst people you could ever meet.

I know, page 10 got me too. I real all that for nothing.

Merlin’s Tower Tarnhelm Towers Where are these? I don't see them in the Beckey Guide.
