  1. Funny Ivan Wow I now hate three groups lawyers, lobbyist, and rei.
  2. I've been there a couple times and felt a bad vibe when I was there both times. Don't intend to go back. A sad week.
  3. You need to get in touch with the "three cups of tea" dude. He will teach you how to scam the public and set up your "for profit" non-profit.
  4. Thanks for the feedback guys.
  5. I bought a fission and its under three and keeps me warm. That's my 3.5 cents.
  6. I was looking at getting one of these. Are they worth it?
  7. Kuk. Any one that drinks and drives should be in jail. Yes he may not have caused the accident but he also may have been impaired and not able to avoid it. You have a responsibility as a driver and as a father to avoid a swerving car or breaking a Childs neck. Sorry I can't bring myself to like the guy.
  8. Thanks Chris for the info. I think I need to quit my job and spend some more time down there.

    Top rope gear

    When I transition from the gym to rock I took a day trip out to horse thief in the gorge. It's not a ton of fun but you can get some good practice setting up solid anchors. It a great place to mess around and practice setting up your gear. Just a thought since it only a hour and a half from Portland.
  12. You guys crack me up. You will argue anything! When I get bored I just read some of these crazy threads. Oh by the way Im a cutter!
  13. In September of this year me and a buddy are going to yosemite to climb Mt. Whitney and rock climb for 9 days. Our rock climbing level is 5.6 to 5.9 trad and sport. I hoping before we go to get more multi pitch experience but we mostly climb single pitch. I was wondering what guide books you like or any suggestions. Thanks.
  14. Broken Top and or the South Sister would be something you may be interested in. It is about a 3 hour drive from hood. But you get to see the other half of Oregon which is high desert. Broken top has some srambling at the top which make it a better climb in my opinion.
  15. Thanks big sky You make a good point about looking into a 4 season tent. I'll check out some of these models.
  16. My climbing partner and i have been using the same 3 season tent for five years, keep in mind the tent is ten years old. A windy night on mount Adams has clammed it's life and I'm in the market for a new one. I'm looking at the black diamond oasis right now. I've never used a double walled tent before and was wondering if it's worth it. Does anyone have any feedback on this tent or a similar model. I'll take any info I can get thanks.
  17. That would be a test for sure. I think you should do it.
  18. Thanks for the info. There was a line of people up there last time I went. I think I'll hike in and camp so I can get a sunrise summit. Thanks for the tip on the mazamas I was on hood with them once yikes!
  19. A buddy of mine wants to climb three finger and check it off his list this year. So we put it on the list of up coming summer climbs. I have not been to the top in over five years and was wondering if there was a changes. When I went last all you needed was some small nuts and couple big slings. Is that shitty piton still there going through the crawl? And is there still hardware on the top? I only ask because it's a rotting pile of shit. Thanks
  20. My post was directed to him and the people that thought unemployment was a good idea. He sounds like a good guy I don't doubt he would do it right.
  21. Please as a tax payer be a man and pay for your own trip. Don't fund it through unemployment. That no different than a well fare mother who works the system. I really think you should take the blunge but you should be an adult and pay for it your self. I'm tired of paying for people working the system. Have fun.....
  22. I'm so what up over this. I can't sleep! To think that a climbing company is copying product. Oh my god! Really this is crazy maddness. Oh god oh god. And one more oh god! Who cares really I feel dumb for reading this thread.
  23. "SKINS" Or "MEDS"
  24. Wow guys thanks for all the info I'll check these models out!
