  1. Check out the Bersa Thunder .380. Its basically a PPK clone with some of the PPK's bugs removes and at about half the price. Butch's gun shot in green lake stocks it for about $250 http://www.butchsgunshop.com. 380 is easy to handle, easy to conceal and has enough stopping power for most situations, anything short of a gorilla on pcp. Even if shot and not killed most have the sense to not get shot again.

     

    As for ammo all handgun ammo cost roughly the same amount but if you area doing alot of shooting you will save if you buy by the case online. 380 is easy to handle, easy to conceal and has enough stopping power for most situations, anything short of a gorilla on pcp.

  2. Climb: Pinnacle peak (tatoosh)-

     

    Date of Climb: 6/22/2006

     

    Trip Report:

    Nick and I climbed Pinnacle on Thursday 6-22. We went up via the Castle, Pinnacle col, good snow the whole way with some rotten sections on the traverse of the south face. Spent a bit of time being confused on shitty choss then found the south gully and soloed the easy 4th class to the summit. Hung out for a while and rapped off the seatbelts tied to the tree. Glissaded down the col and drank some Rockstar 21 (better than sparks!) Weather was great and we were distracted by the views of rainier. It was a great day for my first snowclimb and first cascade summit

    Used:

    Axe, Rope for decent

     

     

    Approach Notes:

    we left a good bootpack up and on the traverse of the south side, get it before it melts

  3. Typically venom removal kits are not very effective. Rapid transport to the hospital via EMS is a better option. As the venom travels in the lymphatic system under the skin rather than the blood stream, a rubber band should be placed on the bitten limb above the site of the bite to slow the venoms progress. The victim should be kept calm and avoid exertion and be immediately transported to the hospital for anti-venom treatment. If possible the snake should be killed and taken with the victim for identification purposes.
