hahahha reallyLet's cut the crap and talk about the tooth C-C PR's. No more beating around the bush. -
I like golfing alot but it can be dangerous. also I believe too many hobbies usually means your just ok at many things. although I had to work very hard at being a very mediocre alpinist

the hieght of the infinite bliss rantWe appreciate the feedback. For those who wish to give it in a more anonymous form feel free to use out contact form here http://cascadeclimbers.com/contact/This is our 13th year of CC.com. And the world has changed a lot since then. I don’t want to sound like I have my head in the sand, but I see cc.com surviving right now, not necessarily dying. That doesn’t mean there aren’t things we can improve here, there are tons as there always have been.
. The iPhone was just released. Facebook and Twitter were infants.But consider this: 2006-7 was our peak usageSince then there has been a war for your attention, and now it has moved from your desktop to your phone, and now it's moving to your other devices (Pebbles, FitBits, Netflix etc). There are billions of dollars being pumped into these companies who’s sole purpose is to compete for your time, content, money, and become integral to your lives. So, it’s remarkable in a way that we are still here.
Are posts down? Yes. Are pageviews down? Yes. Are visits by core return visitors down? Not so much. So while people are not posting, they are still reading in droves. I don’t want to sound like I’m not disappointed this has happened, because I am, but I’m also realistic about the above, and take some solace in the fact our traffic is such that we’d likely survive financially even if nobody was posting. Being self sufficient financially was a goal from the start.
Something that did happen this year is in the last 12ish months we have had 3 offers to buy cc.com. We turned away all of them, mainly because none where in the best interest of the community and your content.. We are in this for the long haul.
Moving forward I will add a better photo uploading capability; you guys deserve it. Whether we abandon the photo gallery or not is up in the air. In the next couple months we’ll have some clarity on which forum solution we will be moving to, which will be much more modern then what we have now, and will have a great mobile experience.
I’ll have more a bit later.

The solution is easy: eliminate all of the forums except Olympic and Mount Rainier.

great work! love the fotos

I agree also, sometimes its nice to enjoy the alpin slowlySometimes BE-ing there is much better than scurrying through.
.I completely agree. I did many of my climbs car to car when my daughter was young because my free time was limited, now I love to bivi, it is all part of the experience.The bivis on top of Winnie's Slide, right below the entrance to the Upper Curtis, are AMAZING, plus you get running water coming right off of the glacier
