I also hate breakfasts but have found it easy (er) to eat soups for breakfast. prefferably spicy. You also don't have to wash your pot from the night before because it will blend in with the soup!

The correct question is "what doesn't it do"!

I second the ushba, works great and just follows along if you clip it right to your harness with a biner.

Would it even make a differance what direction they're tied in. If i'm picturing what your trying to describe I can't see how it would?

Where are you going?

Alpine: North ridge of Sphinx Aid: Never tried it and want to. Ski (new catagory):1. Emmons Glacier (it's sooo long ) 2: Mt. Fairweather B.C. 3: Mt. Garibaldi NE face

My Grandpa was a machinist on the Arrow till it shut down . At least Canada got some cool DEW stations up north as a result!

What are the chances of a hook or the like popping off of the placed nubbin or ledge and wapping you in your mouth. perhaps knocking out teeth? Seems like a real possibility to me, but then I don't aid climb.

Why stop at the north cascades? keep going to some real mountains in BC. Wait no, Stay in the cascades

CoffeeCrisp, however I prefer a bag of assorted bulk sour candy

Overhand knot is where it's at.

Who the hell is on their computer at 12am on New Years...

Got a shiny new brunton multi-navigator GPS from my parents. HEEEELLLLLL YAAAA . Beat that!

This thread could also have gone under the "this guy didn't get what he wanted for christmas" thread.

On my 16th birthday my parents payed for driving school and lessons but wouldn't let me get my licence because i wasn't responsable enough . worthless gift at the time.

I have a blizzard and really like it. It fits over lots of clothes, easy to get on with crampons, okay with a pack on and even holds you when you fall.

good thing you ordered them BEFORE asking for input... And since none of us have stars i'll rate you if you rate me

Right now it looks like it's me and one other and we'd like to at least have one more partner for Denali. Snow conditions allowing (you need a good snowpack) we'll be skiing into base camp which will add 10-12 days to the trip. We'll most likely leave the last week of April or 1st week of May and attempt the West Buttress route. E-mail me for more info.

I've said it before and i'll say it again, Hillebergs where it's at! The Staika is the one i'll be getting. 2, not one, yes, count them, 2; 2 vestibules! I'm 6'7" and I fit in the sucker with room the spare. Those swedes make em LOOONNNGGG. I'm hopeing to borrow it for Denali from a guy if he doesn't go to Fairweather...again.

"The federal agency that created the Internet now challenges scientists to create a detector that could identify people by their unique, genetically determined odor." what's the "huh" for TLG?

Crosscut ridge? Mt luxor?

I fell asleep in LOTR . I tried watching it another time at a resonable hour but got just as bored and ended up watching "The Hot Chick".

I knew driving through Alaska would pay off!

Just got back from LOTR and found it a trying experience to stay awake and watch it. I think I even dozed at some points. Maybe it's just because it was 3am but I don't think that fantasy shits for me. Great battle sceanes though. Flame away LOTR nerds...
