  1. I hope it doesn't handle like its license plate.
  2. Yeah, you'll notice everyone covering their ears as you drive by.
  3. A lot of nice bivy sites at the notch on the ridge. When I climbed it I used aluminum crampons on my approach shoes and that was fine. You probably want rock shoes for the gendarme.
  4. That's what I got out of it.
  5. Sorry, I couldn't resist it.
  6. So which section of craigslist does this go under?
  7. Seems like the least he could do after dropping his partner.
  8. Yeah, just look at what he did to this rattlesnake. You could be next. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAO5Eycer6c
  9. Developed hot springs in Almo. FYI, they are not open on Sundays.
  10. 5 hrs to Red Rock? It's more like 1h 15m. Virgin River Gorge is right there. St. George is 30 min. There is a lot of new route development in the Mesquite area as well.
  11. I use one of those. It works well, but has a couple of issues. First, when using an ATC the wire loop hangs far enough down that it hits the plastic and can be annoying. It's annoying to keep opening and closing when you are doing multiple rappels, so I just take it off and put it my pocket. Also, I had the plastic pop off when it was open and lost it. I called DMM and they wanted $7 for a new piece of plastic. I told them they were out of their minds and luckily I found another one on a climb in Red Rocks.
  12. Where'd you fall in a crevasse at?
  13. Maybe the problem is that he loved her too much.
  14. When are you going? I know Jackson had a big snow year. My guess is that there is probably even more snow in the cirque. Your approach might even be longer down there than normal. If I were you I'd call the Jenny Lake ranger station just before going and see what they say about the upper exum. They have the most up to date conditions from people who have actually been on the mountain and are extremely helpful. You could try some lower elevation stuff like Symmetry Spire as well.
  15. Too bad United sucks ass.
  16. Argus

    Is that where your name came from?
  17. Here is a list of climbs by rating from Clint Cummins web site. http://www.stanford.edu/~clint/index/rating1.gif Also, Rattletale looks pretty good.
  18. Plum Pudding on the mid wall.
  19. Look at the title.
  20. I can add some more puke and banana photos if you'd like.
  21. The puking actually didn't occur until 4 or so. The drinking started at 1. Lightweights!
  22. Trip: Washington Pass - Date: 5/10/2008 Trip Report: Went skiing at Washington Pass on Saturday and Sunday. It was fun. Highlights of the trip include: Counterfeitfake showing the fine folks of Winthrop why drinking Jim Beam at 1 in the afternoon is a bad idea. Fenderfour demonstrating the proper technique to become a lead instructor with the Boealps.
  23. If someone wants to crop the powerline out, that would be cool.
  24. Drove out there last night and took the dog for a walk. There's about 6-7 feet of snow at Olney Pass. Could be a while unless you want to walk from there. Olney Pass with the road to Static buried. Road to Static in the background. Looking across the lake at the south facing slopes.
  25. There's a place just to the east of the park called Antelope Flats that has legit free camping.
