best of cc.com [TR] Ptarmigan Traverse FKT - 8/16/2012
zoroastr replied to off_the_hook's topic in North Cascades
I don't know Leor, but I once did Mt. Daniel with Uli when we were both students at the UW. After summiting, we ran a few miles back to the car, and there were brief periods when the guy actually seemed to lose contact with the surface of the earth and sort of float a few inches above the ground--very impressive. -
[TR] 2011 - A Year Of Climbing - [Video Montage] - Various 11/18/2011
zoroastr replied to Adam W's topic in North Cascades
That was kinda cool...i actually watched the whole thing, which I almost never do when it comes to personal video. The music's a nice match, and I like the MTV-inspired effects, like the 'schwack cam and the negative color segments...neat. -

[TR] Volunteer Peak - Northern Yosemite 50 Mile Loop 8/6/2011
zoroastr replied to off_the_hook's topic in California
50 miles? is that all? hardly seems worth the bother. seriously, if i had your legs and lungs, I'd throw away my car keys. nice pix, as usual. suggestion: change your handle to "Mercury." -
Had a great time reading your account on Summitpost. Congrats on an amazing adventure. That route looks incredible! :tup:

zoroastr replied to Adam W's topic in Alpine Lakes
hahahahaha! the video is funny ('specially the tent scene..heh) and nicely edited. nice music sync-up, too. -
...another great TR! Some friends and I did that same C2C route a while back, but contended with far less snow. Nice Job! http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=568322 ...holy crap! I just checked the index and saw your archive post of TR's..sorry gotta go...I've got some reading to do! thx!

[TR] Yosylum - Da Kapitan - Seeing Dog on the Salathe 6/26/2011
zoroastr replied to ivan's topic in California
wow! kewl report, pix and vids! thanx for sharing. the drive must have been the crux; even though i've never climbed above 5.8, i would gladly have faced the perils of el cap rather than subject myself to even 5 minutes of bob dylan's caterwauling! -
omfg...that is bizarre! the thing actually went for you? unbelievable! ...looks like a pretty good sized goat, too. Glad your party's unscathed. Did that route a few years ago in normal summer conditions and loved it! very nice mellow c2c adventure. the crux is the drive from seattle: l-o-n-g! --thanx for a great report

hahahahahhaha gr8 TR ...scaring the crap out of your friends: just one of the many benefits of climbing.

[TR] Forbidden Peak - East Ridge Direct 9/7/2008
zoroastr replied to Layback's topic in North Cascades
Nice report and snaps! Sounds like you had a much easier time on the ledges than our party a few years ago--I guess we just missed finding the scramble route. The ridge route was fun, but if I were to repeat, I think I'd definitely just rap the W. Ridge for the descent--much faster and more secure. Thx again! -
Dang, that looks fun! Congrats on snagging it, and glad your friend stayed out of the gaper. Nice wow-pix!

Those are some sweet shots! Especially the mega-schrund.
