  1. Anyone used or seen the OR Manifesto jacket, I just saw it in Mountain Gear's fall magazine. http://www.rei.com/product/771644/?cm_mmc=ps_google-_-Fall_Catalog_08-_-Apparel_Brand_Outdoor-Research-_-OR%20Manifesto&gclid=CIrrz9LZiZcCFSAUagode2iF_Q Says it has a balaclava hood, thumb holes, and a full length zipper. Wool and polyester mix.
  2. I think we are batting 1.000 against pirates, or maybe someone could explain the last time Somali's took over a US Navy boat.

    As far as the TR issue that I posted about, it has happened to me with Tvash and Ivan and others.

    When I click on view trip reports directly from a username sometimes it leads me directly to the complete TR forum and I have to search by name rather than the link leading directly to the TRs posted by a username. Just a heads up, but I am using the old Firefox for browsing.
  5. I'm interested in either, got snowshoes, axe and crampons. No car but would be willing to carpool with others.
  6. She was at the concession speech. Honestly, who gives a fuck? You sound like all the people bitching about how Obama is not a US citizen. It's all forged paperwork, birth certificates and medical records.

    Mantyhose

    I believe that was the clap.
  8. Read about climate versus weather. To me it is hard to apply dramatic weather events to climate cooling/warming. Want something spooky read about ocean acidification.

    PM'ed on Bellingham Rock
  10. A trick I have done while winter camping is to heat just a little water, and put it in a bowl that the canister can rest in, which seemed to make the fuel last a lot longer. This was just a regular canister stove, so I have no idea about turning the canister upside down.

    Sure would be cool.
  12. That is awesome that he was found. Way to go SAR. Also the MLU debate has moved to Mt. Adams now. http://www.katu.com/news/31231924.html#idc-ctools Evidently he was irresponsible for not bringing a GPS "so that people could locate him" In all seriousness, was to go Mr. Mamoyac I'm not sure how many people would be able to do what you did, good job.
  13. To me it seems that his personality was basically "screw it, add a little playing to the audience for the heckuvit". It seems that earlier you talked about them saving time and added in: "Does anyone but them actually give a damn about shaving a few seconds off the speed ascent" But now you give him a hard time for playing for the "fans"? I do agree with you, alpine FA's seem a little cooler, but climbing El Cap quicker than I could probably climb a ladder is kinda impressive too.
  14. At this point mass genocide would be about the only thing that works. Also, I'm sure that the recession/depression isn't making a difference at all in China and India, so those new coal plants every week aren't going to slow down at any point. Just read this, and it makes you think about what will continue to happen to the world even if CO2 emissions completely stopped. http://www.es.ucsc.edu/~jzachos/Data/Kolbert%20Oceans.pdf
  15. I'm heading up to school at WWU this weekend and would be interested in scrambles after that.
  16. 84 to 26 and go through Gresham.
  17. I've been having issues where I log in, and all the forums are yellow like there are new topics, and the most recent topic is from 4pm today, but its only 1pm. They are also glowing yellow for forums that have already been read, and the most recent post is from about 5 days ago.

  19. Arc'teryx...When you really need to save the 100 grams.
  20. "Running it out"
  21. May want to PM this person. http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/plab/showphoto.php?photo=7879
  22. There had been one that popped up on here about 6 months ago. Saw it on the Bellingham Craigslist to.
  23. Looks good, code doesn't work though.
  24. So I am looking for a new rain jacket/shell for climbing as I get into it. I stumbled across the OR Foray and found a few positive reviews, but wanted to hear opinions since so many of us have them.
  25. There is additional damage in the Elliot this year piled on what happened two winters ago? Last year in order to get around it, we hiked up, and crossed at the base of the glacier.
