You haven't been around here very long have you. Try doing a search around late June of 06 on the main board. PS Avatar names shift.

I'm a little unclear on if there is serious talk of building a road past base camp. The reality of the situation is there already is a road to base camp on the north side. I've been in a large truck there, and that was 18 years ago. The only bad thing about paving it is the Chinese will probably trash some cool artifacts and practical things that get used today. The road is a side issue to how the Chinese treat the Tibetans. Basically they treat them like shit. It's really sad.

Drywall mud would be cheaper.

Tree guys on the loose in Gig Harbor.

I like being a tease. For now lets just say it combines stored fat with liposuction to benefit plastic surgery.

Have fun playing with your rainbow flag and pup tent this evening Dave, but leave it at home unless you want to make a personal statement at the beach. I'll be at the beach tomorrow PM after I am part of a 3 man crew doing a traverse of the new Tacoma Narrows bridge.

I find it amusing that ILS only thinks of body fat in terms of body fat percentage; with excess being a bad thing. Trust me kid there are real uses for stored fat should you ever have a mishap like falling 10' off a ladder.

I'm spraying from your mom's house.

My doctor told me to hold on to fat at least until the 10th. Like I said you skinny people could be seriously fucked should you ever get in a bad accident.

I felt like posting this again. If you like I can refer you to a couple doctors that will back me up. You skinny people need to start pigging out or you may be fucked. At the very least make sure you've got a couple large friends should you get in an accident.

Today I'm at 206 lbs. That's down 12.5 lbs from my start or down 9 lbs from the contest start. I found out from one of my doctors that I probably don't want to drop bellow 200 lbs before Aug 10th for some medical reasons that are pretty funny, but I ain't posting them here.

How about we find a place close to the hot chicks playing beach volleyball.

There goes the neighborhood.

It'll be cool to see you here.

I've looked at the Gunsight area from a distance several times but never been there. The photos you posted make it look even cooler.

Schuldtzy should come early to be part of the new pervy fruit wing of CC.com.

I notice you got the name, but you had to join up with the American Direct at the top. Can't stand by yourself eh

That's a fine example of the American Direct. Please point out a location of a, "Canadian Direct," Dru. I don't think you can sucka.

I forget which web site I read it on, but one of the coolest TRs ever was written by this dude who climbed a wall in Yosemite without water. They did the whole climb consuming cheap beer and Vienna sausages. Of course they had their own stupendous problems with poop later.

I'm sorry Dave but the whole tent thing is totally geh. You've been around cc for long enough that you should recognise the crew.

I'm sorry, but they are right there Who > Clash On the other hand where the fuck is King Crimson, Yes, ELP, The Nice,........

There's a nice set of stairs straight east of 35th Ave NE. Just follow NE 135th to a dead end. The stairs go down with good views of Lake Washington. If you want to add to the stairs you can go down 42nd Ave to the Burke Gilman trail.

Boots? There's no need for boots. A buddy of mine only used to wear boots because his boss made him. He wore cloths hiking, but I once went to ski down from Muir with him and he gained about 1000' in bare feet in the snow before he broke down and put his boots on. Ok so I'm willing to rule out the loincloth, but ya gotta have the spear to get a decent dinner.

If you really want to go back to nature you should only hike with a spear and a loincloth. I suppose chicks could include something to cover their boobs too, but we might have to all vote on that one.

And to add to my point [ ] {}\|;:"',<.>/?~`-+ Just try and argue with that point.
