  4. be sure to extend the grigri with webbing too.
  5. In his defence Schuldt's post is a little hard to decipher. But not that hard.
  6. It is true that GPS elevation measurements are traditionally much less accurate than horizontal measurements, for a number of reasons. My understanding is this is because GPS elevation measurements are based on a perfect ellipsoid. These measurements are known as "height above ellipsoid" or HAE. However, we want to know what the elevation is relative to "mean sea level", or the "geoid surface". A geoid model allows translation between the HAE and MSL measurements. These models continually improve, and the NGS puts out new ones every so often. As these models become more accurate over time, GPS elevation measurements become more reliable. A 20m cliff is quite significant to climbers, but to account for this at a global scale requires a very accurate understanding of the earth's shape. It is much easier to be fairly accurate in the horizontal. It should be noted that with the right techniques, GPS elevation measurements can be used for projects that require the most accurate of measurements. It just needs to be applied correctly.
  7. Not to mention the significant pull of the moon and the rotation of the earth.
  8. I heard the farm turkeys can't even mate anymore. I'm surprised they don't just kill themselves. That actually would not be a bad GMO eh?
  9. yeah but if you look closely in the photo you will see this guy is not an octopus, which would be a prerequisite to place and subsequently clean this pitch with tricams. it would be funny to see tricams to 1" in a guidebook though.
  10. Do you see an f'ing american flag on a porsche? The porsche cayenne's windows do not accomodate multiple american flag + ala mater flag attachments during events such as the apple cup, or oregon/oregon state civil war. Typical that I have to spell it out for a canuck.

  19. No wonder traffic in seattle sucks. You guys don't need a monorail, you need a an attitude adjustment. Get a bike or move or something. Just do something.
