That is funny. I didn't see their chestbeating TR. In fact I didn't even see a TR. Perhaps they realized doing that climb in such a manner isn't anything to talk about. Just a fun day trip in the Enchantments.

Atleast twice a day. Sometimes three times.

BAZERKER!!!!

You can be pretentious as hell if you're cool and get away with it. If you're pretentious and dumb. You are suck.

Once I see one worth looking at, I won't be complaining.

You have to admit that newbie girl climbing shit is a tad pretentious. But if they're having fun, good for them. I suppose.

Its the era of mandatory prozac. Everyone has to be nice to eachother now and shit.

What objectives are you looking at. The chimney route on the Molar Tooth looks cool.

Fern climbs in Carharrts. She's rad.

Quit with the political threads already. Its old.

If its real hot don't wear underwear. If you got small titties don't wear a bra. Pretty simple. ... oh if you want to look hot, wear small-ass daisy dukes with your harness.

1. Don't call me dude. 2. We don't plan on sitting around the camp site all day. 3. I'd rather sleep outside in my tent than spend the night in my hot, stuffy room in the shared house that I live in with 3 other roommates in the city. 4. We'll climb, scramble or hike during the day and cook, drink, laugh, talk, have sex and sleep at night. Sounds like a perfect day to me!!!! Sounds like a climbing trip not a "camping" trip. Go to Squamish or Index, dude.

Shit Dave we all know enough cool hardworking people who work for the Forest Circus who do actually need and use such a rig. There's no reason they shouldn't convert all the rigs to enviro-diesel though.

Which brings up another question: anyone here gotten sick from drinking water in the backcountry? I never purify my water. Though I usually only drink from streams pretty high up and very near the source. Some folks I know drink right out of Snow Creek. If you drink from the top of pools supposed to be OK.

What the fuck does one do when they "camp?" Sit around the campsite all day and talk shit and drink beer? Without some type of activity lke fishing or hiking at least, how fucking boring. Might as well go to the casino. Don't go camping dude, what a waste.

Lambone, I think the red ones are the Trango S - they look like a great all around boot, but I'm looking more at the Trango Extreme S or the Trango Ice. Guess I need to venture into the big city and do some field testing.

Straight up. It doesn't take that long to get "good" at ice if you're already a decent rock climber. There's no point getting lame ice tools now only to want better ones after a season or two. For straight waterfall ice get the CM Quarks or the BD Vipers. If your going to be doing some alpinism look at the BD Cobras or Rages. Rages, I think, are the best all around tool on the market.

There's also a lot of adventure climbing in the Superstitions near Phoenix apparantly. Some good crags in their too that were all the rage in the 80's before gridbolting.

Didn't it BURN last summer?

Not this time of year.

I'm looking for a climbing partner to attempt a new route on the North Face of Changabang next week. If you've got shoes and a harness, I've got a rope and some cams.

I've got the old Trango Extremes and I wanted to upgrade b/c they give my heals heinous blisters when I hike in them and the toungue rotates. Thought the new version might have improved on this, but apprantly not.

Have you registered with the appropriate office in your municipality of residence yet?

Anyone have experience / input regarding this boot for ice and technical mountaineering?
