  1. There is a TV tower about 30 miles from me in Fairchild Wi that is 1998 ft high. There was an article in the paper a while back about the guy who changes the lights up there and he goes up solo.
  2. Great TR. Been up in the Stehekin area a number of times and always love seeing pictures of it. Thanks.
  3. Oh shit. Not that again. C'mon Bug, you're like Sally Field--We like you !!
  4. Hey Billcoe, the comedian Steven Wright claims they were built by a guy named Eddie.
  5. Great tribute Scott. We wish you and your family peace.
  6. Bemidji Minnesota--figures. That is not a Bigfoot. That is what passes for a hot chick in Vikequeen land.
  7. You won't find anything available or cheap that close to Hood at this late notice. I tried to get something nearby five months out and couldn't find anything. I would reccommend Best Western in Sandy, just 40 minutes away.There is a supermaket right next door that makes great subs that taste great on breaks up on the mountain.
  8. Very sorry to hear this. My sympathy to the family.

    And let's not forget respakaga,lutefisk and patemon. Ole and Lena were dancing at the Norweigian Ball and Ole said,"My you smell good tonight . What do you have on?" Lena said " I have Eau de Ole on." A while later Lena said, "Well you smell good too, Ole. What do you have on?" He said, " I have a hard on,but I didn't know you could smell it".
  10. Thanks, Frick. Now I'm going to look up some of the old pics from way back.
  11. I have heard it mentioned several times in this forumn that the Hogsback has shifted west. I compared photos I took when I did the Old Chute route this June with pictures taken as recently as 2006 and see that it is very noticeable. My question to those of you that have climbed Hood over the years is this: Have you seen this happen before, is it common for it to shift, and what is the most that you have seen it shift? I had a great time up there and was just curious.
  12. Mine came already. Damn, that was fast.
  13. Hi Goatboy. I am a professional baker and have been doing a lot of gluten free baking lately, mostly from mixes that should be available at your major supermarkets.There are some gluten free brownies that smell and taste as good as any and would be yummy to tuck away in the pack. I am using rice flour to make scratch pie crusts and they are working out well too. Just add your favorite fruit. I'm sure that if you check these out, you will find there are lots of cakes, cookies, and bars available.Unfortunatly, the breads do suck.
  14. Jake, you and off white and ponderosa are posting what I assume are videos, but I am getting just a blank square with a little colored icon in the top left corner. Anyone have an idea why I am not able to view? You all are commenting, so I assume you can see or can open them. I notice this on several other threads, too. Thanks. Jim
  15. I agree with mountainmandoug that winter is the art of sweat management. I used to hike out to my deer stand in below 0 weather with multiple layers on and be sweating like hell by the time I got there. Then I would sit there in wet clothes and freeze half to death. Now I wear just a wicking longsleeve top and leave my jacket open while I hike out. When I get there, I take the jacket off and dry out in the cold air and pull my layers out of my pack and then dress however warm I want to. The best way to avoid the wet clothes is to plan ahead. I have done the same when I have climbed out west and has worked well for me there too.
  16. I will order one and gladly pay for whatever shipping costs. Plus I will donate to saving the wall even though I will probably never climb there. Love the cascades!
  17. A guy is doing a crossword puzzle and says to his wife,"Honey, what is a four letter word for a woman like you that ends in U-N-T ? She says, "That's easy. AUNT. Thats what my nephews call me. He says "Oh.. yeah... Hand me the eraser will you? Thats when the fight started.
  18. Once again, IVAN is the only one that makes sense.
  19. And one the Washingtonians might get: Why doesn't Idaho have a professional football team? Because if they had one, the next thing you know, Washington would want one too. At least one guy in Stehekin I told it too thought it was funny. Of course, Brett Favre playing for the Viqueens is F-ing hilarious.
  20. Norwegian yoke: After supper, Ole went out to the garden while Lena cleaned up the kitchen. She got a phone call from a guy who said he was doing a survey, but it was actually an obscene caller who was asking questions about her sex life. She answered away until he asked a question she didn't know the answer for. So she hollered out the back door to Ole and said, " Ole, do we have mutual orgasam?" Ole thought for a moment and hollered back " No, we have Lutherean Brotherhood!"
