that article makes me ANGRY

After reaching the solitary gendarme, is the route back to boston basin clear?

I've heard a lot of belly-aching about the "east ledges" descent from Forbidden. Is it really that bad? Which is better, going down the east ledges, or downclimbing the west ridge? I've heard rapping the coiloir on the west ridge kinda sucks with a single rope... Thoughts? TIA!

Don't we all?

I was killed once from a device like that. It really sucked, cause I missed a climb that weekend.

THESE COLORS DON'T RUN!

so, when are we going to go out and chop them? I'd sacrifice a Saturday. I've never climbed there, and I've been meaning to....

These are supposed to be indestructable. My father says these were called Birth Control Glasses

dude, that's pretty inconsiderate of you to lose your camera. I would have liked some recent photos. Try harder next time, huh?

cool -- so, you guys climbed the second tower directly instead of doing the snow traverse after the second notch? Incidentally, how was the snow?

Denny Creek/Asahel Curtis exit (47). Follow signs to denny creek campground. Look for a culvert and game tunnel on the left Fun forest is on the other side of the tunnel.

I would match the double ropes, if you can. That way they wear at roughly the same rate. At least, that's what I always hear, not sure how big of a deal it really is I've got a pair of mammut genesis doubles, I love them.

Good job on the trip regarding the blister: leave it alone. It'll probably be better by Friday.

Nice work, guys

I recommend a 12-guage pump-action shotgun, with a shorter barrel (~19 inches) and a real stock (not a pistol-grip). For home-defense, I believe a shotgun is better than a handgun for the following reasons: a) The shotgun's spray pattern is more likely to hit your target than a conventional round, especially considering you will likely be firing in the dark and under fearful/stressed conditions. b) A conventional round would be more likely to penetrate walls, possibly injuring family members or neighbors. c) Nothing beats the pure intimidation factor of the sound of a shotgun's pump action. Of course, an even better solution may be to move somewhere else, where you don't have to worry about home-defense as much. Guns are bad juju. good luck, R
