  1. This guy died a little over a month after I was born. Frozen body found on Mt. McKinley.
  2. Depending on where you are located, that area is a lot of fun. Just go talk to the guys at Olympic Mountaineering in Port Angeles for details. I can't remember how many routes are there, but I've had fun climbing there. Here a few pictures of the area: Elwah climbing. Elwah panorama Have fun.

    Softly falls the light of day, While our campfire fades away. Silently each Scout should ask: "Have I done my daily task? Have I kept my honor bright? Can I guiltless sleep tonight? Have I done and have I dared Everything to be prepared?"
  4. Are we talking about the River's Edge here?

    Land!

    How much is the land going for out there? I'm thinking of starting a cult, and I need some communal property.
  6. Is this what you found?

    Baby Smash!!

    Unless his little bones develop at the same rate, he is going to have the same problems that steriod using atheletes have: their bodies fall apart because they can't take what the stress that the excessive muscles are dishing out. Also, it will be interesting to see this kid is like when he is older...

    Tongass Action

  15. Climb: Mt. Rainier-DC Date of Climb: 6/18/2004 Trip Report: The Big Balla, Sherpa Oscar, and myself hiked up to the top of Rainier via the DC route last week. Some pics: More pics if you're interested here.... Saw 'HappyCamper' in the parking lot, going for a single push climb. Congrats you guys on your climb! Gear Notes: Rope, crampons (I had equipment "issues" with my Black Diamond strap ons) Approach Notes: as mentioned, trench to the top is in. Great to run into a couple of CCers in the parking lot on the way out!
  16. My helmet was hungry for a second trip up, so it worked out well. Skis or a snowboard at Muir works out great.

    Famous Paul Tsongas qoutes: "Let's try winning and see what it feels like. If we don't like it, we can go back to our traditions. " "Nobody on his deathbed ever said, "I wish I had spent more time at the office." " "That's a good question. Let me try to evade you"

  20. I was looking up what 'gotterdamerung' is about and I found this neat picture:

  23. Thanks for posting Mark. I think I can speak for most the people on this board in that our thoughts were with you and Jon up there on the mountain, and continue to be with Jon's family. Even though it was a fluke accident, knowing what really happened makes us all better climbers.
