I would consider him more of a Freedom Fighter.

Hmmm. I can see some pretty fundamental similarities.

But did you see his dad's beard! OMG! He's obviously a Taliban sympathizer.

Doesn't look like it's quite in ski shape right now

Neither do I!

I would think getting to that point east of Argo would not be easy cause you'd have to summit colchuck and go down the other side. Probably easier to wrap around to the south and drop down from sherpa Argo col. You'd have to lose a fair bit of elevation but travel would be fast right now with the snow.

I was down in the Sierras recently and there was not much snow so I'm sure there won't be much snow in the North Cascades either. Mt. Stuart? Really, Dave? Come on!

Apparently he's got climbing skills "on him." Interesting way of putting it.

If a horse can do significant internal damage imagine what a t-rex would do to you.

You should have cleaned some of that goldline off and sent it to David Roberts. Nice sends. Looks like a great trip!

Wet slides are a lot less likely to bury you than sweep you somewhere unfavorable where avy gear can't help. I leave it at home if I'm unlikely to encounter any significant fresh snow accumulation.

Try supertopo forums. Lots of old dudes on that site.

Can you be more specific? What aspect of Argonauts are you trying to get to?

Nice job! Especially for first time on the mountain.

Looks like a fun trip. Ill have to get back there one of these days.

Need to work on your bowstaff skills.

Try a couple bong hits, shotgun three beers, and four shots of espresso. There will be about a ten minute window when you can climb just about anything.

Well ... how do you think the op got his name?

Aha. That's another good snow safety tip!

That's cool. I like to bag cougar and beavers. Sometimes both at the same time.

That said, I've sure seen snowshoers do a lot of stupid dangerous stuff in the backcountry. To be fair, I've sure seen skiers do a lot of dumb stuff too. Of course, I've never been involved in any such escapades though

Well what's your point then? It's common courtesy to not schralp the skintrack. Please don't do it. Thanks. Also, friend, last I checked this is Spray, so stop taking it so literal and/or serious.

A man can die but once We owe God a death He that dies this year is quit for the next Never met Jon but appreciated his blog posts on Wildsnow. How tragic.

I'm not the irate skier you need to be careful of. Personally, if I see a snowshoer in the skintrack I will politely educate them as to why it is bad form. I was just giving a "snow survival tip." Your Leavenworth fetish is too funny. Why don't you share with us which suburb you live in so we can make fun of it. Just to be fair and all.

Come to think of it, since when is Hoodsport a mountain community? Pretty sure it's right on the water and not in the mountains.
