That might be a training chicken. They weigh more and are harder to blow into.

Here are the Gold, Silver and Bronze medalists in the Chicken Resuscitation Event.

Training Day

I think the retired nurse needs a Denali Patch for this feat of heroisn.

Forget the Cartoon Riots... we've got real news to report

My f'ing eyes are watering too laughing so hard. Bomb Denali ... Patch Denali. -r

I am unfortunately forced to bow out. I'd love to be on the mountain and not at work, but given 3 days off next week to go to WA for some backcounty skiing, my employer requests some semblance of me being present. Maybe next time! -r

I've got a 50/50 chance to make it Wed. -r

Don't tempt me.. I have a deadline to meet Thursday AM. -r

Good thing he landed on his head, otherwise he might have broken something functional.

3 of us went up the S. Side yesterday (1/26) which ended up being more of a suffer-fest than anything. The winds were strong out of the south\southwest and visibility was poor. Somehow the NOAA forecast kept convincing our brains that the current conditions were "temporary" and the blue sky would magically appear and the winds would die and the snow would make us yearn for more days like this. Alas reality won out. Anyhow, I think when we started there was a practical realism in what was realistic and safe. The snow was drifting so it was either knee deep drifts or icy crust. My poles had a rime ice layer by the time we hit the top of the Palmer. Skiing down was great for the last 1/4 mile, but the rest was mostly "just getting down"... WIT method. -r

I was thinking they were twins .....

Welcome! I moved here form Minneapolis in 1996. I've never looked back! There are so many great things to do here. -r

Beacon Basin Listings Link I think you are correct. -r

For Sale: 2 recently purchased Ice Tools. Will trade for lift tickets or new set of skins. -r

Oleg, we must have crossed paths today! -r

I skinned up to Tilly Jane today. Lots of fresh snow and more falling. It was pretty windy, but not near as windy as last Thursday (and apparently yesterday). The snow conditions were awesome however. -r

I might head up tomnorrow to do some backcountry skiing. Not 100% sure. PM me if you are still heading up. -r

There was a lot of avalanche detonation occuring yesterday. With another 6-12 inches over the next 36 hours, I bet we don't see a complete turnaround in avy conditions. Sufferfest really understates the "knock me down" wind gusts above the tree line. -r

Come down to Hood and ski Oh yeah, last time.. 50 mph winds, 5 degree f. Hmmmm... -r

Or having your customer bring in his "expert" buddy who read that and contradicts your help...mostly due to the buddies 90 minutes of reading the latest gear review and a strong need to inflate their frail male ego. Having worked too many years in outdoor retail, I feel like sending a sympathy card to my favorite shops at the end of the season. -r

Hey Oleg, Did you find these boots were harder to dry than other single boots? Thanks for the insight. -r

I am confused. Is Danielle Fisher responsible for 911? I am going back to reading trip reports.

I still am looking for hard evidence about the McKinley Assasination cover up. Leon F. Czolgosz was not alone.

32 tries for Parka to get to Coat. At one point he guessed Girlfriend and I cannot remember if that was before or after he asked "Can you put something in it?" -r
