    Bump, anyone know where I can pick this gem(High Ice) up?
  3. The Mammut Infinity is one fine rope, go all out and get the doudess braid pattern too. A bit much for doing the dog routes on Rainier or just glacier travel, but it handles great! In- fact I used it last year for the Cleaver on Rainier with 4 people.

    Dang! This used to be available to watch for free (for good reason), but I'm only finding the trailer.

    Jackpot! Yes, this was posted in an earlier thread, I just couldn't find it. A million thanks. This is indeed a great movie, and if you haven't seen it.... check it out. Brilliant!

    Need a laugh

    So my searching abilities seem to be impaired right now and I could use a good laugh.... I'm specifically looking for the best climbing movie ever. A couple of the scenes I remember go as follows: 1) Doucebag pulls on rescue cable line lowered by heli, helicopter crashes wildly into the face. 2) Jackass "climber" throws pack containing all gear to partner across a 2 foot expanse (literally), partner in-turn fails to catch pack, pack falls 1000'. crazy funny This is wildly entertaining and any help IDing the film would be much appreciated. Or anything else...
  7. Table Mountain BLOWS! but hey, its all about the suffering right? Make sure you take the Heartbreak Ridge variation for maximum suckfest that culminates with a few hundred yard boulderfield. Then loop back down, in an effort to avoid the boulderfield, that is nothing but a fairly steep talus trail slope. This is best performed in June with a 45 lb pack. Forgetting the insect repellant is not something I'll likely forget again....
  8. Definitely some preseason stoke! If I understood correctly the heli shuttles 2 plus gear. A three man team means there's an empty slot. Untapped potential.........
  9. Rainier summit crater victory piss going down in the background.
  10. FYI incase anyone might have some information. http://www.kgw.com/news/local/Climber-missing-on-Mt-Hood-138819984.html
  11. 38! This is sad news indeed. Freeze you bitch..freeze

    Ourey

    The Ouray Comfort Inn was offering a free shuttle service from the Montrose airport. This is a great deal if still available, plus a decent continental breakfast, and super close proximity to the ice park. The owners are great and the rates even better if you have an icepark membership.
  13. I might have an extra spot in my car, if anyone in PDX is interested. Departing PDX FRI early am and returning that MON. PM if interested.
  14. May we collapse into mindless shit slinging now? I could use a good laugh.
  15. Another option you my want to consider is the Pacific Outdoor Peak Oyl Elite Uber. http://pacoutdoor.com/sleeping-pads/view/peak-oyl-elite Pacific Outdoor utilizes Aspen Aerogel which has great insulative properties. I use a Pacific Outdoor Uber High Mountain Sleeping Mat which you may still be able to purchase. Weight: 14 oz. Size: 19" x 34.5" x 0.5"
  16. 5 hours sounds good if your 41 and have a 44 pound pack on. That's how long it took me...
  17. Sorry I missed you Bill & Plaidman. I got out of work at 6 then compounded with traffic I made it out there around 7. Just enough time to met some good people and make a clean-up lap down at the bouldering area. Scored an old spring car seat and bag o porn and trash. I'll catch yo guys next time if you go and will definately plan on leaving work early.
  18. I too tend to loose my appetite at altitude so it boils down to fueling up. I use NUUN tabs in my water for electrolite replacement. GU Roctane for quick energy along the way. Eat Probars during quick breaks & throw down some beef jerky too. Cinnabon's pack a whopping 880 calories each so I've just started packing one or two of them recently, mighty tasty as well. If you wrap it in aluminum foil you could warm it up as a solar oven, bit if its overcast like it was for me use your armpit
  19. I'm in and would like to meet some peeps to climb with. Sad to say, but I've not been on rock since I've moved out to PDX 2 years ago. I can provide good belays and used to lead 5.7 (laugh it up, just being honest). I'm 41 and looking for for anyone willing to let me start back out on some of the easy climbs. My daughters gone for the summer so I have a lot more free time after work. Gear, gas, car I've got it all. Takers.....
  20. A new found favorite: Cinnabons. They pack a whopping 880 calories each and are quite the treat.
  21. Why does this sheeought coincide with Mother's Day weekend? Don't yall have moms? Just sayin......
