  1. Damn those pictures are incredible. Thank you for being patient while the board had issues Jason, and thank you for being a steward of CC.com. And thanks for quality TR after quality TR. If these pictures don't get you stoked then you're not a alpinist or humble backwoodsman, or anything...
  2. Clearly he is being forced at gunpoint if he is involved.
  3. Jason would never do something like that.
  4. OK the Gallery should be fixed now.
  5. Jon is hoping to look at the gallery tonight.
  6. the last thing we need is Riff Raff poaching all the good lines left
  7. That was way harder than necessary. I can't wait to get off this crap UBB board. Thank you for sticking with us through this Baller! Once again, what a TR. This is sphincter tightening:
  8. sad
  9. Well, just like a copy of a book by Cramer, that beta is solid gold. I love TRs that feature Rainier (drinking it is even better) and blood! I love that Smoot is now a cult classic. I have heard detractors in the past, but I've always sided with the Contributors. Great TR Jason, I hope we can get out some day and do something.
  10. I have for sale here Ulee's old helmet which no longer fits his teenage head. It is used, has a few light scratches, but is in great shape. It does have writing inside it (his name and a phone number, but easily marked over) This is perfect for kids or if you have a smaller sized noggin. $20 cash money and its yours. Pick up in West Seattle only. PM me if interested.
  11. I'd see a doctor about that! I certainly wouldn't give you advice about it because i'm not qualified...but I use Nuun tabs which I'm sure you've tried....but I also don't get that cramps in activity that often...its usually later after the activity, and then only occasionally.

  13. not a nice thing to say about your aunt!

  15. I've been getting a lot of requests for a picture of the goat. As you can see it was pretty goatworthy. I hope this fulfills your needs, please stop bothering me.
  16. you bunch of pansies
  17. yeah there is 6 lane paved road to the summit. well, it is actually more of a climbers path past that glorious meadow with the tarn, sort of a choose your own adventure that diverges and reconvenes several times as you contour over to the north side and then it just heads straight up to the summit(s). not hard to follow and even some flagging in parts.
  18. a Buglarian's yogurt?
  19. Why haven't you corrected lightening vs lightning yet?
  20. Trip: Mt Forgotten - standard Date: 9/5/2016 Trip Report: Alpinfox and I are not ones to suffer fools, so we obviously suffered a lot in each other's company on this Labor Day hike. As noted everywhere, the trail departs from the Dickerman parking lot, a change since I was last up there since the Perry Creek road has been decommished. The hike's a hike. There were occasional views through the clouds. I got sweaty. Alpinfox wore business casual. We only saw two solo women hikers and a goat. The biggest controversy is which stack of rocks is the true summit! Over on Summit Post Klenke talks about difficulty of what is known to be the true summit, which would be to the west of the summit you hike right up to. But! Mr Ken Russel and team used a string and a water bottle in some fashion to determine that the hike up summit is actually higher. There *did* appear to be some relatively recent rock change on the summit that was recently was supposed to be the highest....and Mr Ken Russel did speculate that either lightening or man made changes altered its height....though it does seem a bit of stretch that someone would have trundled blocks to make the easier summit the highest. At the easy summit there was a plastic register with a damp little rag of paper in it. At the middle summit I found the classic brass Mountaineers register, also containing damp rags of paper, though less damp. So it is huge controversy. Someone bring up a theodolite next time. A good time was had by all. Gear Notes: QFC sandwich Approach Notes: hike hike
  21. affirmative! you could probably double the price then
  22. Well I'm having mixed results, so not really to declare the bug dead, but i think i have a good lead on it. Things are working that didn't work before (I am able to copy a large blob of text and paste it into a TR/post, and have it show), but i'm not having 100% success ( in one case it failed again, in an old post). Please let me know what you're seeing...either here or PM me. thank you.
