After seeing these sculptures, I was inspired to stop at the outlet malls in Centralia and spend my life savings. I think the two are related. Don't look at them is all I can say.

Static Point is just to the left of this picture:

Yeah, they worked so well for him that he blew his brains out. Or maybe it just helped him get that far. Tell us all about your perfection KaskadskyjKozak.

There is actually no hope for you. With only two days a week climbing, and five days a week of "birthday cake on floor 14" or "retirement party snacks on floor 9", you'll never be a NOLS "climber". However, you may be driven to extremes on your miniscule 2 day window, so Twight inspired rages may occur.......so just put on your headphones and crank up the Skinny Puppy. The North Ridge is going as you debug that code.

Is that what they're calling it these days?

There are a million and great qoutes from him. "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me." Rest in Peace.

Happy B-day Timmay.

Still for sale. I'm putting them to ebay on the 25th of Feb.

Awesome!!! Welcome to the board, and thanks for posting your trip report.

I heard about this. Apparently at least one of the people killed was a terminally ill person who wanted to see the thing before they died. They got their wish, and then promptly were killed by it.

That must have been what that stench was on my Bibler when I first got it. It smelled like a smoke house or something.

I knew there was something wrong with that post!

Wind chill, wind chill! I measured 10 below in the Olympic mtns one winter.

Those do look sweet! If you want to save some change, the Trango Extreme S model is what they're replacing I believe. I believe the only major differences are in the styling and the addition of Gortex in the EVOs.

The Storms of Silence, Joe Simpson. Great, like the rest of Joe's books. I especially like his description of women's gym fashions.

Everytime I climb I'm setting new standards for embarrassment. I'm on the cutting edge.

If this sonofabitch was in striking distance I would have had the first ascent of that SUV, and this would be in the Trip Report section.

Pardon my positive spin on this situation, but I have much admiration for those climbing mid-week. They have made decisions that afford them this luxery. Greetings and salutations to my fellow climbers.
