    Rut Roh!

    https://www.backpacker.com/news-and-events/news/hikers-marijuana-prosectuion/ by the what is prosectuion? Clearly the writer of the article was high.
  2. Monkey shrieks and grunts and take! Take! Take!!!!!!
  3. I would love to hear all of that stuff. I grew up out there, born in Forks till first grade, then Quilcene from first grade to half way through high school, then PA for the rest of high school and junior college. Via scouts I hiked all over the Olympics. i love those pictures! Reminds me of the pictures of my early scouting days, nobody in Quil had any money and you could see it on the clothes on our back and the gear we had. That was early 80s. tell us about the truckers!
  4. Huge shout out to these guy....the @AAI continues to keep the lights on here. I'm so greatful that they recognize what this site means. Please do pitch business their way, support them because they support us. They have a great gearshop with great selected equipment too, btw. Thank you Jason, we really do appreciate you and your folks!
  5. Thanks Dave I would love to hear more from you, anything you can share about your time in the Olympics!
  6. Yes. Bring it. Man so different from my last time there. Now all the good free camping is just up the road where I used to go 4x4ing in my Honda Accord to find firewood. And the “campground “ is closed (not sure if shutdown related).
  7. Meet me here to fight or listen to Counting Crows. Hurry up! Bring licker. Round here!!!
  8. It’s a bit more fiddlly than the inreach (I have a Mini2). Others thing about the mini2 is it has insane battery life, versus a phone (unless you go airplane mode, etc). I also wonder how much longer the satellite messaging will be free…I’m betting it will at some point cost extra. that said if I already had not paid for the garmin I probably wouldn’t at this point. And I’m probably not getting good value for my money given how many times a year I am truly out of cell service. But for now I still pay for the Garmin service. it won’t be long till there won’t be such a thing as “off the grid” or “out of cell service “ … the death of that freedom
  9. That third pic fromn the bottom.....thank you for sharing as usual!
  10. On a road trip in Idaho and Montana and came across this hat in a thrift store in a little town in Montana when I stopped in to get some steak knifes. Got this and three steak knifes for $2. Thank you Steve and RIP.
  11. Dan I will help you! Let’s also get your phone off here it will get scraped and every bit in the universe will be calling you!
  12. I would love to read the essay @Otto
  13. It’s all about belaying, not about the climbing.
  14. https://www.mountaineers.org/blog/registers-canisters-a-grand-northwest-tradition hopefully people are replacing the actual register rather than taking to container down… I mean I think they are cool. Sometimes you see notable names in them, or a name of a now deceased climber of note.
  15. That sucks…especially those old brass Mountie registers. Is it possible the Mounties are retrieving them themselves? But probably not unless the replace it with a modern container…
  16. Tedious! 😂. If tedious is the bar to get those views, sign me up for tedious.
  17. Went up there again. The smoke from the Bear Gulch spoiled the views to the south but we had a good time anyway. Was gonna camp on Hawk Peak but ended up going down to the plane wreck in Tull Canyon to get out of the smoke. plol

    NWAlpine

    Unfortunately NWAlpine is calling it quits. Not sure what the plan is there, but taking the advert down. If you like their stuff (quality, made in a America) then get in on their going out of business sale here: https://www.nwalpine.com/ All the best to all....
  19. Now you’re on to something. Fire all the statisticians, force the team to give the US government 20% ownership of the team, make it so you can only buy tickets to the games with Trumpcoins. Deport any player with a batting average under .200.
