  1. Awesome! Thank you for sharing!
  2. https://www.mdpi.com/2571-6255/6/2/46 if you Google there is a bunch of discussion about this, but I wouldn’t trust the area without close inspection and testing. This, like much of the other discussions about this particular topic I found Googling, is pretty much just armchair speculation, but: it seems like there are so many factors that could impact this: 1. how hot did it actually get at each bolt? It may be just a bolt or two are damaged and the rest are fine, but it only takes one bad bolt to make for a bad day. 2. Type of rock and moisture content in the rock, which could not only cause problems with the bolts, the the frailty of the rock in general. I suspect the more moisture the more things could change. 3. What kind of bolts/how were they affixed? Etc.. again just armchair talk here, not a geologist, physicist, or psychiatrist.
  3. Thank you! It has been more of an ordeal than I thought it would be! But the end is near I think.

  5. Yes. I believe on Mountain Project?
  6. You did it! I remember in the car or over a pint saying you were gonna! Congratulations on checking it off. What a crazy amazing mountain. Headed for a week hut hiking in the Alps in the first part of September myself!
  7. was this on the road that weekend? I imagine it has been there for a while…
  8. Love it @JasonG ! I was up in the Silver Lake/Tull canyon area with Kiba that weekend. Crazy amount of cars at the Dungeness trailhead. Great job finding were they (mostly) aren’t! I’m ready to test my shoulder out btw. <edit> I’m mixing up my weekends. This was when Kiba and I where up by Marmot pass! 😂
  9. Some how i need to to change? Look in the mirror when you say that. I’m not sure what polarizing indoctrination you’re quoting there but it isn’t helping you. I appreciate but that it exists, that you exist. But I don’t have to agree. A little sad that you drag this conversation here when there is so much we have in common. You know, like being outdoors and on mountains and things.

  11. People continue to support the site, and donations continue to trickle in. Every little bit is very much appreciated! When you donate, can you shoot me a PM? I just want to make sure to add your account to our Uber secret Supporters forum so you can see it. Sometimes the email in paypal isn't the same you use here on CC.com so it can be hard for me to match them up. Again, appreciate it!
  12. What are you on about? Are you mad because I don't lift you up and celebrate the list of things you hate? Is that how I'm "killing the site"? Actually, I've paid money out of my own pocket to keep this place running. I secured a sponsor to help keep the site going. And people have chipped in as well. Hell, @JasonG single handedly ran an auction of his photography and raised a bunch of money to keep this place going. And all the users that have chipped in individually....you guys are why this site is still here. I appreciate and tolerate different points of view. What I'm not a fan of is the sort of Eeryore negativity that drags down healthy discussion. But even Eeryore has his place. I have nothing against donkeys in general.
  13. great pics thank you for sharing!
  14. Updated to latest version of the forum software. Report any issues here...
  15. Decatur is the where the Elite cabal in charge of Group-Think lives. And then there is Trump Island. Does this not scream "Evil Lair of NCNP" to you???
  16. I do like how Orcas gets called out specifically. Are we to assume that the rest of the San Juan Islands are kosher?
  17. Hey @brandnew yeah looking for help and you're right its gotta be a trust thing I build up with anyone. Can I'll send you a DM with my email and we can talk from there.
  18. I can't help but compare this conversation to the "defund the police" movement. there are real similarities. Don't like the people in charge? Feel like they are abusing their power and responsibly? Abolish them! I'm not trying to discourage this conversation at all, but just pointing that out.
  19. I think this thread sums up all the specific things you hate quite well! Anything else to add? So far: 1. People who run NCNP 2. People who live in Port Townsend, Vashon Island, Fairhaven, and Orcas. 3. The National Park system all together. 4. "Feminista" which I believe is used to describe people who believe women should have the same rights as men. Or maybe hate is too strong a word? Just disagree with?
  20. Did you pet that dog in the last pic?
