I thought that "balled" was usually specified on the gender section of the drivers license.

I only have Saturday and part of Sunday, so I'm going run up and climb Mt. Deception from Royal Basin. Prolly hike up and summit on Saturday, then bivy above Shelter Rock Saturday night, and hike out Sunday morning. Gotta be in Port Townsend Sunday afternoon.

Off topic picture for ya...

Of course it depends on the codes of the area you buy your property. But I know people who have got away with this configuration in Jefferson County. I don't know about Kitsap.

get a yurt and a honeybucket and you'll be good to go.

In seattle your bottom of the barrel tear downs start at 200k. Bremerton is filled with deals in comparison. Think of the crack houses as "established business on residence".

" five to 20 grizzlies inhabit a 9,600-square-mile stretch of wilderness..." How many people have seen a griz in the North Cascades?

I ended up ordering a Super SARC, with the 500 with spectra grid, and spectra bottom and kangaroo pouch. I used demo model, and found this size is the most adaptable. Can't wait to get it and put it to use...

But only to piss off the Americans, who recently renamed Liberty Ridge to Freedom Ridge.

I'm trying to setup a toprope anchor to my car. Well, actually it's not a car but a motorcycle. Anyway it's much heavier than me so it should work. I only have 23' of 9/16" webbing. Should I get 1" or will that stuff be strong enough? I'm doing something similiar. I'm setting up a slackline, using a moped as a main anchor. The moped gets 53 miles per gallon. Should I use bent or oval biners?

When I went to WWU up in B'ham I had a stinky little ferret named "Weely". Then one day he went missing. A month or so later, I started to smell my little friend. I found him in a poster tube in my closet, pretty much liquified.
