po wall or south seas then....now i'm just guessing

NA wall?

Man, just saw this one on the news....so fucked up! I hope those bastards lose their jobs. It seems since the border guards got firearms their attitudes have taken a nose dive. Conversely, the US border guards have been quite pleasant of late.

if all else fails take a bus to Green River and catch a local shuttle from there to Moab try PMing this guy: http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showprofile&User=14377 he said in my Moab TR that he was heading there over thanksgiving.... look here too: http://www.mountainproject.com/v/southern_utah_deserts/104554752 have fun!

how 'bout some ice tools mister?

I have both. The Trango S is a great summer boot. I climb almost all winter alpine and all of my ice in the Trango Extreme. I love them. Some of the Mad Rock offerings looked impressive in the shop, and the price is nice. You should check those out too.

37 was Luke's prison #....for a bit of trivia

Congrats! What a great way to spend a birthday(or anyday)!

it's only a joke. no one spit on anyone, not to worry.

37 is cool hand luke....no? berzerker......Clerks

does that take into account the weight of modern cars, the myriad other devices powered by the engine and the speeds driven on modern roads?

Cool Hand Luke & Pedro Cerrano, Major League how 'bout: "Be Somebody!" or "Well, thief... I smell you, feel your air. I hear your breath."

the ratings in the creek are "suggestions", the towers I climbed were mostly dead-on, and I found the boulder problem on Primrose to be a bit height dependent

Trip: Moab Area - Creek and Towers Date: 10/21/2007 Trip Report: Autumn is a great time in BC to migrate to warmer, drier climes. Birds do it, so can I. Time to pack the rig and recharge the Vitamin D for the long winter... It was my first trip to the Moab area. In general, I enjoyed the towers a lot more than the Creek....too much of a good thing I guess. As much as I love trad, lugging around 64billion cams is a bit much. The Towers are much more interesting and climb more like granite than the Creek. The first week I climbed with my friend Stewart from Squamish and the next with Blake "Megalodon Meister" Herrington. We managed to get in a lot of cragging with a wide cast of characters and also managed to squeeze in a few towers. In the end we did Primrose Dihedrals on Moses tower, Lightning Bolt Cracks on North Six Shooter, Fine Jade, The first two pitches of Coyote Calling, and Ancient Arts. Here's a few photos of the trip....I'll post some more as they come in.

University of Yosemite. All the schooling you'll ever need. I just started kindergarten there...

I went with the Carhartts. Got em' for 35$(USD!!...woohoo!)in Moab and they saved my ass on the chimney pitch on Primrose Dihedrals yesterday....if they only made body suits....I'd not have the chicken wing tattoos. They are a bit stiff though, and I hope they break in.

wow! that's pretty cool.

whatever.

Great Photos, nice one guys.... I really enjoyed the photo of Buckner and dipshit

exactly. best of luck to you!

Ok Carl, sounds good to me! I bet it was all a simple misunderstanding.

wow Carl thanks!...did you think I was talking about you? geez....go figure! you're not one of those types are you?...I mean, you're always PMing me for travel advice...I'm sure I could dig up one of those messages here...

The self-appointed world traveler police are quick to draw their (insubstaintial) weapons here and start shooting. They are quite sensitive and precious. I would suggest just heading out there and keeping your eyes and ears open for opportunity. Be friendly and keep an open mind. You'll have no trouble finding work or whatever you're looking for.
