Huh?! No Boards? Huh?!? Thats not very inclusive, now is it?

Bleah! that looks just like my ass, and I am a man... the last thing I want to be pushin' on is some bony or rock hard muscle ass.... It's gotta make a "slap" noise, or it's no good... Otherwise it's just "gay".... I have doubts you'll have a clear view of any woman until you lose the glare of your homophobia Nothing wrong with being gay, just not ideal for me. And if I want a woman that has a rear like a man, I might as well be into men, thats all, get it?

I am one of those nail gun accidents.... 16 GA trim nail hit a knot in the stud and did a 180º back out into my palm.... Hurt like hell... It's not part of the 37,000 because I just dealt with it like a man... I cried for a while, and got a band aid and some triple antibiotic... I am a tough working class tradesman, that I am ....

why the hell pardon a stiff? Do you really think that HE cares? Plus, I know I don't. (It also helps that I HATE the Doors music. All their songs seem to last WAY too long and sound like four songs smashed together. What a headache)

Ha... thats what skis and snowboards are for... Duh!

Whoa! You're "really hardcore"... I am glad I don't follow your leads... All that pee would "mess" things up!

you guys are losers, all of you... I climbed that route with with my hands and rocks TIED to my hiking boots!... IN SHORTS!! In April! Like I said, I rule, you guys suck. (and no, there was no polypro under those shorts either....)

That was kind of the point I was trying to make... Whats 2000' more feet of gain, when the resource is available to you? (But then again I have never ridden a 'cat up, so whadda I know... Well, except for the "ski cat backcountry experience on the Palmer glacier" rides they give at the ski area for skiing purposes only....)

Whats the difference of riding a snow cat or a ski lift for 2000ft, when you DRIVE YOUR CAR up to 6000' to a parking lot? How many of you have done the climb from lolo pass road at 1500'? When you look at it like that, what 2000' more feet in a ride?

Make sure that the crampons you get WILL fit on you snowboarding boots, if that is what you intend to climb in. Most strap ons do not fit very well on snowboarding boots because they are so wide. A good reason why I have a split board... No need to pack it. Split it, skin it... No need for snowshoes either... as far as me...i am in good shape and consider myself capable of the climb. i just haven't done any snow climbing or hiking before so i'm not really sure what to expect. and my friends haven't climbed this particular mountain prior. That is all I really have to add to what Ryland said...

They probably avoided you because of the car and the plates made them think you where a coke dealer with mafia ties.... Or ya just havent been to the gorge enough times... On the news tonite they where talking about how over 30 car breakins where reported this week, and I think that was just M-Falls area...

Then why the hell even have the law? So, when they WILL catch me without the MLU, what are they gonna do? Wag a finger?

Oh I am not worried about them beating the tar out of me... As Archenemy stated correctly, I am Viking by decent, I thrive for battle. A crew of cranked out methheads do not scare me. I'm with you. Directly related to Gorm den Gamle. It's my only claim to fame

This is sound advise!! One time I brought an out-of-state aquaintance for a backpacking trip through eagle creek to ttanner butte, and when we arrived at the parking lot at 7am on a weekday, there where four cars with broken windows. As we traveled along the trail, we asked at each camp if they drove X-type of car to let them know that they would find a small suprise. I found the kids that owned one of the cars. He asked me if they got into his trunk, and I said yes (because the theifs pulled the seats apart and made access to the trunk area) and the kid said that they most likely stole his laptop. A LAPTOP? WTF did you bring along a laptop computer to a hiking trip? The kids where from Portland to boot. Leave that crap at home!!! As long as there people that store valuable in their cars parked at a TH for several days, the theives will be there.

Glissade tricks?!! Come on now! Everyone knows that you pack a splitboard or skis on a volcano slog.... Sheesh, Imagine that. Glissading... Rookie! I ride on a board, not my butt!!

You got lucky!! I had an Ibook that failed that way THREE times!!! They replaced the logic board the first two times because it was still under warranty, and they would not let me purchase the extended warranty?!? and then it failed about a year later. Yeah, what a pain. But I must be a glutton or something, because I replaced it with a Powerbook G4...

Then again there are good books out there that can guide you... http://www.amazon.com/Expert-Map-Compass-Björn-Kjellström/dp/0020292651 This book gave me the insight that I needed to travel "out of bounds"....

Where you parked at the actual trail head? There are signs there warning about the break ins, and suggest that you park by the campground or the fish hatchery since there are people there most of the time. The car burglaries are so common at Eagle Creek, that I pretty much expect to see at least one car with a broken window at the trail head every time I go there. And I never park there either, I'll park somewhere else and walk in to the trail head. Whats even worse, is that the Sheriff's Office knows about the problem, and simply don't have the resources to do anything about it. Some buddies of mine that have also been victims have considered staking out the parking lot to catch these people red handed, but nothing ever materialized. There is a gate on the road, we where just going to shut and lock the gate if we saw someone break into a car and then call the Sheriff...

lame

you suck.... There is always a reason to get out the snowboard...

Great TR! I love TR's with pic's... But your video made me laugh!!! http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=1880132055 The shit we say when hypoxia sets in.... My favorite is the finger pointing down the hill... 'Shhhhh, sheeeee sheeee and then some more sheee,,,, Yeah..." Not that I have ever made comments like that myself... One time on the summit ridge of Hood, I got all pissed off that there was not a bar up there... I dunno why, I just was a bit ticked.... Hypoxia!! Good times!

Geez, with more and more splitboards getting more and more popular, It's still a wonder why lamo-retardo skiers still think that you cannot BC with a snowboard... I mean, Geez, don't be a lamo-retardo!!

Last time I heard there are raving lunatics out in the area of Mt. Pilchuck...people get killed around that place... If you go, don't forget to bring a MLU...
