DMM. My fav for clipping all the way.

No dog. British accent.

My fav is fake thingys on the wheels of the H2 that make it look like they have the on-the-fly tire pressure adjustment like the H1. Now that is stupid.

I'll drink to that.

I'm in too, if it's the 1st/2nd. I will probably be coming from Seattle or B'ham. I can take two besides myself in my car. PM if you need a ride.

I 'climbed' St Helens last Sat with a friend and while I was on the summit I had a strange encounter. This guy comes up to us and asks us if we've ever had problems with our dynafit AT bindings ejecting spontaneously. We both said no and I started to explain that the only time that I had heard of this was when the toe piece was out of alignment with the heal causing... When the guy cuts me off with a wave and says that he had a shop (Marmot I think) install his bindings and he was sure that it was a design problem and not the installation. I immedeatly turned away, thinking that this guy was a kook, as I don't like being cut off esp. when he was the one who initiated the conversation. Plus he seemed totally uninterested in acquiring knowlege about his equipment, but merely wanted to bitch about it. Then before I could get very far he asked us if we would mind linking hand to hand with him in a human chain so that he could walk onto the cornice and look into the crater. I thought about it for about 15 nanoseconds and said that I didn't think that it was a good idea. He gave me another wave as a brush-off and my friend and I proceeded to ski back to the car without ejecting once from our dynas. I was thinking about this encounter and wondering if I should get over it or if this guy was really a kook. Is this spray?

I think that you guys are missing the fact that forrest was on a bike too. Not in a car.

Did you take any pics?

I ran into some guys there that were living in a school bus and showering at the Y.

Just did the Worm Flows route on Helens last Sat. It's perfect right now for the intermediate ATer.

fuck you kailasshole

true I skiied fresh off St Helens last Sat. Spring Cascades owns huge.

US Outdoor in PDX has Patagucci DAS on sale right now.

I was in PDX last week and US Outdoor hat Patagucci DAS jackets (Hot Lava color) on sale for $70.

I was wondering if anyone knows if someone makes holds specifically for dry tooling? I haven't been able to find anything online.

Convert your gif files to tiff format, resize and then convert back to gif. Super easy w/ photoshop.

I guess it makes sense to make such a broad generalization about ratings based on TRing a few lines in Squish and Index. Oh no... wait. It doesn't and you're a foo. But then again I'm a weak ass punter.

So for glacier travel are you using two tiblocs? One for your harness and one for your feet loops?

I thought that St Helens was preserved as a research site and therefore off limits to every one except permitted climbers.

I've used tool-dip to repair shoes. It works great. Never tried it on Schoeller though.

When I was climbing sandstone a lot it trashed my hands. I would smooth out the callouses with a nail file to prevent them from snagging and turning into nasty flappers. It worked great.

Just checked the weather report. I would still like to go, but the report doesn't look good.

I just arrived in the PNW from CO. I am going to visit some friends in PDX and for lack of a partner I was thinking about summiting Hood via the southside early in the AM on Wed. If any one would like to try a more challenging route (Leuthoid?) I'd be super-psyched. PM me.

Are there any climbing shops in the 'ham? Thanks.

If you get a dehydrator you can make your own jerky from ground beef, turkey or buffalo. Peanut butter is also a good source of calories and fat.
