Hey, us Merkins have our own nuddie fests, along with something you ain't got: Freedom Fries and Freedom Dip Sandwiches! I hear tell of some good ole nuddie hijinx in some hotsprings in the Cascade foothills. That article was sorta kiddie porn. Really, out of everyone, they focus on a 12 year old girl? Kanuck Kiddie Porn?

No shit. This reads like a Las Vegas advertisement. Schmuck bets it all and wins! And for all you suckas who read 'Us' magazine, Jo Lo's mom won! Come one, come all, you're all going to win! Bet it all! Look at this single sensational story! We have an instant winner! You're appoved! I shat yellow! I shat green! but i digress... yes it is all a scam. and there are higher stakes games being orginating from and propogated by the current US government administration. if you don't know about them, you haven't been wearing your tin foil hat.

All shoes include orginal TNF sticker price to make you feel better...

Idaho Rock fo shizzle

Mmmmmolly

Fo shizzle on the noddizzle

A really good friend of mine is over there, and just recently had to convoy through there to the north. www.munnroad.org

Ya, as noted on another thread, the TNF tags are even still on the gear. I have to admit it did occur to me to do so, but I don't need any bad karma, so I just got a few things that a climber buddy and I actually were looking to buy anyway.

Good thing he never lets facts cloud his judgement... http://images.salon.com/comics/boll/2003/07/17/boll/story.gif

Check out this ebay auction...I'm trying to figure out what is being sold.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1299&item=3671100138&rd=1

I was looking at the list of people online the other day and saw about 5 different Google bots chowing down the cc.com data. We're probably all in a NSA database now. Time to put on my tin foil hat.

When I walked out of there I felt like running, like it was a LA riot free for all. A couple of pairs of Nepal Extremes (pair for me, a pair for a friend), a harnesss and assorted climbing gear for around 1/2 the price of one of the pairs of boots. I fought back the urge to profiteer and just buy it all and sell it all on ebay. I missed out on the hardware, but that was/is the sale of the decade for me. Christmas in April. And think about it, the more you spend, the more you save!

Has anyone been up Road 39 since this TR? I'm wonder if a non-four wheel drive can making it up to the trailhead, and what the trail conditions are. Thanks...

Ahhh...this reminds me of my scouting days. One time, near the end of an 80 miler we made by hooking up various trails in the Olympics, we made up this concoction we dubbed 'Rocky Mountain Spotted Frog' that was basically Top Ramen mixed with a packets of all the spices,seasonings, and stuff we had left over. I'm not sure what went wrong, but within 10 minutes of eating it about 9/10s of the group was spouting out of both ends.

The first picture looks like a screen capture of some video game.

Is Rainier considered high altitude mountaineering? Not slaggin' on ya, just curious. Fair question, and while it might be directed at the person who mentioned Mt. Rainier, perhaps I should clarify or change my question to: What you can keep down either at high altitude or when going through gain of altitude that has an effect on your ablility to keep things down? Altitude is a relative thing. Some people get sick on Rainier, other only yack above 18,000. After all, it is not the elevation you get sick at, but whether you're having the most fun doing so, that determines if you're the best climber.

What do you take to eat on a high altitude mountaineering trip? This is probably a personal thing, but what you find you can keep down when exerting yourself at high altitude?

Ausgezeichnet Reise Berichts pzack. Ich lache meinen Esel ab!

I'm looking for a pair of plastic climbing boots. I wear mens size 11 (US) in most brands of boots/shoes. Send me a message (or email porterhammer(at)yahoo.com with condition/brand/asking price). Thanks.

"The best climber is the one having the most fun hitting on everyone else's girlfriend."

Here is an excerpt: "The mountaineering tribe is a comforting place for the partner of a climber. Its protective circle shuts out the questioning eyes of the outside world." Basically, it is a cult. Time for some more koolaid.

There is one at WWU.

That's why the rack was so expensive...they have to produce twice of everything to get it right....
