  1. Very well, then refer to the above. I can see how videos are complicated to some. It's ok, technology is hard.
  2. I like how offended everyone gets. It's just practice guys. Chill out. Take a breath. Go outside. Get off the computer.
  3. Trip: Guye Peak - West Face Date: 11/9/2010 Trip Report: It's that time again [video:youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwPq7y7734I&feature=player_embedded Gear Notes: your mom
  4. I'm gonna lower the price already. Need to sell. 90$ takes it.
  5. OBO. Used. I painted it myself and the paint is chipping. I can add another coat of paint (pro quality with clear coat) but it will just chip. If you don't care too much about the cool BD logo this is a great tool with lots of life left. I can throw in a leash if that's how you roll.
  6. That's for daytrip? I'm a notorious overpacker but I'm working on it,
  7. That's a good question Kevino.
  8. Why do that when you can get a Romanian AK for $550?
  9. post this in the partners section for one thing.
  10. Hold long do the ropes have to be? I might have several. Are you paying for these? PM and we can talk.
  11. haha I remember that thread. "I shot a bear that was charging me but I've never been in an epic." BS!
  12. My mistake. Ya I think you're right on that one.
  13. So..this begs the question. Who's going for it?
  14. ok this is getting ridiculous.
  15. If that's the case they need an oldschool Oregon beatdown. I'm sure the Bacon guys would do it for free.
  16. True enough. One of my profs liked to stress the idea that there is no "normal" but rather only a "typical" person represented in psychology. Because the norm is based on a statistic and because what the majority does isn't necessarily good (think Nazi Germany or McDonalds.) Kind of thought provoking considering our choice of activity. When you think in terms of typical rather than normal you are a bit releaved- the burden of statistical determinism is released and you are free to roam about the country. For some reason his concept made a lot more sense then than it does right at this moment. I'd like to think that my experience in the "human experiment" as it is had enlightened me to the point where I no longer am certain of my certainty, a sort of nod to Decartes, the egotistical bastard! But really what is true is that the real life experience is much less clear than the crisp words read off of the textbook. Which is better? We probably won't ever know. But something deep inside keeps pushing, pulling and nudging each to seek his own piece of the pie as it were. But we are egotistical, humans / Aren't we? We only know reality from a first-person perspective, so who could blame us? I mean damn. Are we not free agents? As I settled down with thought I brought myself to natural conclusions that were neat and clean. Free of debries. I was happy, so I told myself. Then I resolved to begin it all against tomorrow- but I knew it was a lie. I have no internal monologue.
  17. I'm on the second PBR . 16 ounces of love .
  18. Yeah, hard to beat the strength to weight ratio, the challenge is of course, to still hike that shit after puberty and adolescence. Have seen that turn more than couple of hikers into wrestlers until they either bailed or put in the work to recover as young adults. A drive up Boulder Canyon says it's just getting warmed up. And hell, U.S. via ferratas are only just birthing but no doubt will be starting to branch out in the coming years (can you say Infinite Iron...). They both appeal to a demanding, risk-averse demographic that will not be denied in the coming decades. Can't wait for the day sportos are bitching about via ferrati. Except it all keeps coming true, or at least it has consistently for the past three decades. I don't expect the next two to be any different. Perception is reality... Post-modern garbage detected.
