    ok........................how about a hike with a 50 yo that can kick the 20 y/o climbers butts?
  3. Yeah...........I do............................................................What you gonna do for me to get emm..........aye?
  4. Just a small tiny insignificant fraction of our world here. Now look down folks, see that little dot down there?---Thats how small. .
  5. Too bad I dont have an ex girlfriend that is using one.
  6. There you go..................................................you just shopped on your own.
  7. I say bring a sweater my friend+the jacket. Layering is an ideal way of making up for mistakes...................meaning, layer your butt off, and just know that you could strip off some if need be.
  8. He's dead, let it go.........................climbers die.
  9. How about rolling dice with the Mowich face............?
  10. They are not impassable................................................................. this is mountaineering dude!
  11. Do you ski? Just wondering.........Looking for a run down the Mowich face this winter. Just got off the phone with my friend Andrew......................says its a ride. Pick an easy route, and you will wing it despite the company. Pick a hard route, and you better know who and what your asking for.
  12. Jmckay has an unwanted section of our forum................................Yay!! Well good then, this will keep him out of popular climbing conversations now. One more thing........................................Aye!
  13. BTW..... I want to do this again next weekend, or perhaps as an idea to ponder......how about--- Skin up to Muir Friday night, and I bring a small grill, with charcoal and the works.....you just have to bring your own meats. It should be fun......BTW...Consider bringing some extra coals just incase you want a solid piece of beef.........FYI Im bringing it regardless of you guys, so think ahead................................ ........................................why not party?
  14. Never mind....as of todays test run,.......Im keep'n em.
  15. Well the BS'ing screached to a halt the moment I began throwing one leg infront of the other about 7:30ish from JVC, and found myself alone at Pebble Creek within 45 minutes. For some reason, my anabolic threshhold has gotten better, and so I found myself humming some crazy Led Zep song for a little bit, and it worked. Made it to Mclure rock soon enough while skinning my ass off all morning, and testing my old BD Ascension skins which I must say.....are about to fall apart. They gripped and never slipped, not even on the steepest slopes, and I was damn pleased. Made it to Muir a little before 10AM, fixed breakfast, found some time to BS with climbers, and then just pointed down hill. Now mind you, I just screwed together a set of BD Arc ascents at 167 with a pair of Fritshi Express bindings and was giving the setup it's 1st whirl. I made a few turns on the sorta cornish snow, and got used to their radius design, and before you knew it I was beaming past Anvil, Mclure, had to hop a few rocks, and was down to just about Pebble Creek within 6 minutes, which ripped because as I did fly by's on all the RMI heards heading up --- And could just imagine what they were saying to themselves....... ..........."That guy is having a hell of a time up here". The weather was chilly, but moderate, and the snow began to show signs of melting around 9AM. Met tons of folks and had a great time. Just wished that it would have lasted a little longer, but now I am drinking a fresh cold beer at home, and thinking about my totally solid morning up on the hill. That's my TR GEAR: 35L ski pack Water Stove Spare clothes Scarpa Matrix Boots BD Whippets And a great tune to hum to.
  16. Naaa, thats ok....my connect can get em' for about 135.00
  17. ha ha, then they will die perhaps.
