What is your opinion on a sleeping bag wth a center zipper over the chest? It doesn't look to bad but I have not used one.

If there is one Brand that compares to FF and Western Mountaineering it would be Nunatak. Another custom bag manufacturer.

Most useful/useless items on remote climb
TheOldHouseMan replied to luwayo's topic in Climber's Board
On snow climbs I rarely bring T.P. anymore. Just use snow. It actually works really good and is very refreshing. On the other hand, ice doesn't work all that well and kind of hurts. -
I've been thinking of getting into the yoga thing. Anyone have any experience with some classes in Portland. Preferably close in NE/NW.

Who's an "evil doer" now?!?!?!?!

The Mt Shop in Portland has a pair mounted on skis. Don't know what they want for them. The 500 is a better binding, lighter and is compatible with almost any boot.

There will never be a pack like the McHale packs. Totally bomber.

No I think they are called yuppi scum bags with a house in the suburbs and can't make it into the mts without an urban asult vehicle with studded tires and a box on the roof roo.

Keep it quiet up there. All we have down here in Portland is an icy mess. I was stuck inside all day.

"F" the customer is always right thing. If everyone just treated everyone right and pulled thier heads out of thier asses things would go a lot smoother. I work with customers every day and I have had to tell a few of them to get lost. Sometimes you just have to.

I'm looking for someone to jump off of the Space Needle tomorrow or maybe even the Golden Gate Bridge...I've heard people have lived through the jump off the big bridge. -
Has anyone skied these with AT bindings on them? I've heard they are a little softer for you free-heel guys. The Mt Shop has a couple pairs for demo but wont let them go out because of the low coverage. Hopefully after this weekend we'll have enough snow so I can try them.

It would be nice to know...Did they live happily ever after?

President Bush dies and goes to Hell. On his arival the devil tells Bush that Hell is full and he can chose from three people to take thier place and they go onto heaven. In the first room is Dick Cheney. He is in a pool swimming to the bottom and retrieving stones on the bottom and bringing them to the surface for eternity. Upon seeing this Bush says "he cannot swim" and they go on to the next room. In the second room is Donald Rumsfeld and he is braking rocks with a sledge hammer for eternity. Upon seeing this Bush says "this is to hard of work" and they go on to the next room. In the last room is Bill Clinton strapped to the wall naked and Monica Lewinski is giving him oral. Upon seeing this Bush says "Hell ya I'll take Bill's place". "Ok" says the devil, "Monica...your going to heaven".

Read this today. Did you know that Swordfish keep thier eyes and thier brains up to 20 degrees warmer that the water they swim in. The water they swim in can be as cold as 27 degrees.
-
Don't know if they are good or bad. Being a huge Silvretta fan I'd also like to here how they are. I did talk to a guy at the local ski shop I frequent and was told that he was curious on how the toe peace would hold up because of the way the binding releases.
-
Anybody have any helpful techniques to get this done? Or would taking them in to the shop and getting it done be worth it.

What did one lezbian frog say to the other? Mmmmm...we do taste like chicken.
