knotzen, the short answer, its sexism.

but can you ski while wanking and said sheep fucking???

for glacier training and climbing instruction talk to Dan Mazur at SummitClimb.com.

also, when is your spring break? do you have dates in mind yet?

Chris I am working in Seattle and I think I am the only one thats local who has really expressed an interest in this climb. so far I think there are four of us who have been exchanging emails working out details and ideas. PM me your email address if you are interested in more info. for one, Panos, is on a limited schedule so the weather window is something of a moot point for him. the rest of us are more flexible so looking for ideal timing is an option. hope for the best around 19-22 Jan! after that lets go when the going is good. talk to you later, cheers, Brian :-)

great trip report, loved the pics! :-)

I have wanted to do the HR for some time, even attempted it once. torn my binding out of my ski a couple of days in and bailed. I dont have either of the guide books you mentioned handy, but as I am generally familiar with the route, what is the difference between the routes? is the British route through Verbier and the French through???

meatghost, have you been climbing down at the Warehouse Rock Gym? I work in Seattle but live in Oly and I have been looking for partners, for both the gym and outdoor.

I have a membership at Vertical World so I am looking for people to climb with there, usually at the Seattle location. anyone interested in climbing evenings at the Seattle VW?

no sex clubs in Oly that I know about...

323.3 I have hit 323.3 at least 3 times, cant seem to break that barrier. what about the "pop ups", without skipping? I have hit 207.x several times but cant get any more than that.

well this Christmas I am meeting with a buddy to go drinking in Olympia. anyone want to join us?

another good place to waste time...not that I am into that or anything... http://n.ethz.ch/student/mkos/pinguin.swf click the screen once to make the pinguin jump, click it again to make the yeti swing.

just curious, what did you end up paying for airfare?

wish I could go! have a great trip. :-)

bonathanjarrett, kudos to you for stepping up and making yourself known. regardless of what happened on the climb it takes a pretty upright and outstanding person to come forward and face criticism and possibly blame. too often people dont make themselves accountable for their actions, whether they were right or wrong.

LMAO! but just think, now you can buy a set of tits just as big and fake as Barbies! 8-)

quiz night at the G & D usually covers a wide spectrum of topics, not just pop culture. usually good fun.

gotta bring your own wands, unless someone has left them on route. but of course if they are left on route you never know if the climbers are still up there and the wands will be removed by the time you come down! I will drop you a line soon, cheers.

considering how little snow we have had I would think there is a good chance that the road to Lolo Pass is still driveable, if the gate is open. and with this rain and warm temps if the road isnt passable now it will be soon!

lets talk! should someone start an email circulating with everyones address on it? would it be easier to keep in touch via email or this site? GY, thanks for fixing the link.

I havent done Gib Ledges yet. I might be interested in joining you, see what conditions are like by the time you get here.

what route(s) do you have in mind?

hmmm, yum. looks like dinner!

but why? they will likely have hair and icky stuff like that by then...
