:ditto:
I climbed a crack down in the Canyon lands which requires about 18 #3 Friends.....talk about a rack which can make ya look like a plumber.
-
Its not an unusual thing folks....Its's time for bears to ready themselves for winter.....
I wouldnt be surprised if a bear sighting culminates into a bear attack up on the summit.....that would be the darnest thing to explain to the park service.
-
No doubt.
-
OK my friend......Sizes on the LSN Extremes...
-
Ahhh, I miss the guidos, actually I lie.....I dont miss them one bit.
Ever climb up in the "gunks"?
Thats where mt climbing began as a kid...then moved out west a few years ago, its a climbers candy land here.
PM me, we can talk about the old neighborhood.
I'll look out for that Parka for ya.
-
What are you going to climb with that in Brooklyn.....?
Sunset Park Ridge?
LOL.....Sorry......Just old stomping grounds from back in the day.
-
I dont disagree with you Tyree, I just like the lighter stuff for 8-10 day tours, and drop in on 50+ deg slopes all the time (which included the Mowich face on rainier), and have discovered that the freerides were a bit overkill for the touring that I do, plus I never set my din above 9 anyway......I love my knees.
One thing is for sure, Fritschi's will out perform Dynafits anyday.
-
With dynfits, you have only one sole length that you can use for the bindings (drilling)....
Get a pair of fritschis and you can adjust within a few different sole lengths....do you really wanna risk an acl inj with a high din of 14?
Go with a pair of fritschi explorers (lighter than free rides) and have a decent din of 10 which I must admit from prior use on 60ft hucks, they never released.
There ya go.

I can store it for you.

Scarpa Matrix is ok, I mean, I havent had any complaints.
Sure do feel better than my ol' Denali xt's though.

The drinking has begun......
.......whats her name lead me to drink.

For Sale again..........
-
I guess I'll stay home...... camp in the backyard, wax skis, watch a Warren Miller flick or something......perhaps even nurse a case of beer.
Thanks.
-
Wish I could help ya that bud.......I'd love a VW van exactly like that.
I'll get back to ya, gotta brainstorm how to make 2500 by this weekend.
-
Screw it.....Im losing my mind.
-
we might all do well think about how we'd express ourselves if the deceased's family were in a room with us
There are always lessons to be learned and CONSTRUCTIVE ideas to be expressed, but I think within the overall context, this statement has merit.
-
Just wondering if anyone is coming from Oly and or is interested in giving a straggler a ride (-car trouble), and perhaps doin' an overnighter up on the flats sometime this weekend.
Anyway, if somone is game.....let my sorry ass know.
-
Cool deal..........
-
-
That's BS.....How can someone say that shit ?
Screw this, I ain't climbing anymore.

........"Really Bad"= Anal x 2 Days
Seriously, I don't think there is a clear cut answer, however.....
I stuff my gear at the trail head, and however long it takes to get to my chosen camp is how long it's stuffed.
I made the mistake of stuffing the heck out of my -20 bag for a 16 hr transit to Mckinley, left it as is, at base camp hours after arriving, it was no fun making that puppy spring back into shape.......
......Compress+Time+Lack of Anality+Cold= No Fun
