Happy Birthday, Dude! I'm home til Sat, lets grab some beers on the ledge Thur nt... I think yer sick of work and got LOLP fever...

Seeing how it was on a private wind farm I would assume it was poached... Coarse, it could have brought in from elsewhere, but I doubt it.

Prolly fuk'n poachers. I'd had hopes of scoring it once the bugs finished it off but I'm sure plenty o other red necks had the same idea and beat me to it.

Partial bear sighting on the wind farm I'm working at in NH... Rotting bear skull, YUM! Grab me an eyeball with some chop-sticks and add a bit of soy sauce and wasabe... Black Bear Rotting Eyeball Sashimi. YUM!

I've been talking up the climbing w Ben & co to my kids too, as soon as I can get home, that is.

Yum, bacon squirrel on a stick clip. I sure miss the temple of bacon. Hopefully gonna get a week at home soon though.

Any other good stone nearby Berlin/Gorham here in the "Granite State"? Thanks! Dave

So, I find myself in Berlin, NH on a wind turbine project for the next month or three and I just rented an apartment at the base of Mt Forist. Who's got the beta on any climbing on those sweet looking slabs? I hope they dry out enough to embrace some stone here. Better have my rack & shoes shipped out ASAP. Thanks in advance for the beta!

WOW, just checked out the pics on Picasa and am amazed at how much less snow/ice is there since I was in 1998. Sure brings back great memories. Denali was my "office" from 1993-2000. Thanks for the stoke. Looks like you did not have the same crevasse issues we had on the Muldrow/Traleika???

Shit, we took 16 days and got weathered out at a little above 10k. Nicely done. Course, we had a shit ton of stuff. Light and fast, NOT, heavy and comfy, fer sure... Congrats!

Awesome! Pics, pics, we want pics... How were the crevasses? on the Muldrow & Traleika?

Newsflash, MalWart sucks but they have the best tents you buy for $20. Only suck ass wanna be yuppies buy those fancy, overpriced brand name tents. Just ask John David Jr. Maybe he can fix our economic woes?

Lick sack STFU Your favorite lines......poor taste and week. You got nothing. Weak (not strong), week (7days of them)... As in, your spell checker is WEAK.

Ok Ben. I'm off to VT for 6 weeks but will have a week off at home after that. Hope we can get the kiddos out then... Dave Here's Lil E workin the same proj last year.

OUR public parks should be free of any wild animals so as not to endanger me and my right to enjoy them peacefully.

Next time you catch a flight, be sure to tell some good BOMB jokes in the screening line. TSA staff love a good laugh.

And who pulled that tick out of your nipple? Good times! You'll get better soon, so much choss to climb! Reminds me of when my wife had to pull one off my **** (rhymes with tick) while skinny-dipping. Ahh, good times.

That's lame.

Now what is wrong with these anchors?

He sounds like a great guy, sorry not to have met him.

Benjio, I'm pretty sure the reasons the mods pulled that first thread is it was rumored to be another Nate that frequents Beacon Rock and posts on this site quite a bit. I got a call late last night about the accident. Again, sorry for your loss.

Benjio, I'm sorry for your loss. Condolences to you and all his family & friends.

Have a great trip! A few Silverthrown Pics

I was on Silverthrown in 1998, it took us 16 days round trip from Wonder Lake but we never summited due to weather. We camped at the notch around 10k if I remember correctly. Then we were pinned down for 3 days and just spent time digging the tent out. Of course, as soon as we got back down the weather cleared for a few more days. Awesome spot though. Lots of crevasses on the Muldrow and Treilika(?) but manageable. Not sure what conditions are like these days though. I've got some old pics but not with me. PM me if you want more details. Not sure what conditions would be like in late August as we did it in early May.
