Relive the humble backwoodsman.

Great TR! Looks like an awesome adventure. Thank you for sticking with us through the TR posting issues. We ARE working on a solution.

a prime adventure. Congrats on surviving another one man! you're continueing to kill it. YOLO SWAG.

From what I've gathered in the last 5 minutes, everyone on on CC.com (except me) goes climbing in beautiful stunning locations with beautiful people. That is pretty awesome, I'm actually super happy for you. Jealous..but happy for you! Thanks for the TR...this is awesome stuff that I think I could actually pull off, so super inspiring. Thanks for the TR.

AWESOME!!! Whatever you're doing keeping doing it. You're living the life. There are no failures here. All I see is beautiful things in this TR.

Awesome neighbor! Would still like to get out with ya some time! That is crazy about the bear! What the hell was he doing up there...keeping cool? Great TR.

well...the best tent maybe the one that you have in hand when you need it...and the one that works for you. no doubt the cuben tents are the lightest, and if couple that with a design that works and that might be the best if cost is not an object. so you're all right. celebrate diversity.

Dayum. This is what I wait around all year for... you jackasses are my heroes.

bumping this for harambe

pardon my ignorance, but what are the standard routes on these peaks? and friggen amazing pictures BTW.

Its up! Thanks Jason....and anyone have any trouble just PM me, I'll help. And thanks to Jason...he has really been helping hold this place together!

Do let me know if the work around isn't working for you....

and more importantly, was there a Pokestop up there?

pretty awesome, i can't even fathom it really.... "In February, Drew climbed his first 5.14d when he made the first ascent of Assassin at the Aggro Gully, Smith Rock, Oregon. The route links up the cruxes of Repeat Offender (5.14b), Villain (5.14a) and White Wedding (5.14a) into what is likely the hardest climb at Smith. It has yet to be repeated." Hardest climb at the birthplace of American sport climbing.

thats quality Jason!

Among other things, you can get a look at the new ATC and new Gri Gri that is coming in 2017 here: https://gearjunkie.com/roundup/outdoor-retailer-show-summer-2016-gear-preview#MountThisLightAnywhere

Live stream the action on Periscope!!! Go get it Ivan!

Sorry, we are working on a fix. In the mean time do this: http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/1149152/Trip_Report_Issue#Post1149152

Great report, and congrats. BTW its cheating if the shared bag bivy is with a member of the opposite sex (well...depending on your orientation).

Awesome! Way to get after it man.

Apologies and thank you so much Jason. I see you helping people right and left. We are working on a "fix" of sorts, but its taking some time.

Garlic farts are the worst. I mean can any other fart touch them? Normally my farts smell pretty good.

We lost Laurel Fan, I'm sure many of you knew her. She was here on CC.com, but also well known in the PNW climbing community. From Alpine Mentor's Facebook page: "Dear Alpine Mentors Community, We regret that we have to report the tragic loss of one of our loved Alpine Mentors-AAC Pacific Northwest family members. At approximately 3:00 p.m. PT on Sunday, July 24, Laurel Fan (34) fell while ascending Serra 2 in the Waddington Range of British Columbia. Our Alpine Mentors community is very small, and we are deeply saddened by this terrible tragedy. Our hearts are with Laurel's friends and family. We are grateful that the two surviving party members were able to draw upon their experience and competence to execute what was a difficult descent after losing one member of their team and a good part of the equipment that climber was carrying. We are truly saddned and will keep Laurel in our hearts forever. Yours, Steve, Eva and the entire Alpine Mentors family" Sorry to be the bearer of this terrible news.

I see nothing about road restoration. http://www.seattletimes.com/life/outdoors/new-work-corps-to-restore-wonderland-trail-and-olympic-park-paths/

yeah....all that revenue from your climbing blog! obviously you don't have one, or you'd be retired by now.
