I hung up my skis 3 weeks ago dipshit. I feel empathy for folks like JoshK who aren't ready to. Global warming sucks

Your shitty attitude is gonna bite you in the ass Dru. Due to the hot weather/lack of precip the forests in Washington (and BC I'm sure) are as dry as they normally are in mid July. We better not hear any bitching from you when the province shuts down off road travel this summer. It'll probably happen earlier and for longer.

umm Dru it still is spring.

Look what other people did for LW

Drive slower to the next obvious pull out then let them pass.

Shouldn't they be carrying kayaks too???

He doesn't really subscribe to the minimalist school of art.

I seem to remember him being kind of obnoxious, but that doesn't really stand out among cc posters.

I'd prefer Squamish, but looking at the forecast Smith might be the smart move.

So, that's six real people, three of whom are still posting, four if we count you. See my earlier post, you weren't banned for being conservative, you were banned for being an asshole. Bitch about it a little more, I'm sure it will help.

How about 1 time today.

OK Scotty, folks can decide whether they want to listen to someone with no experience in the subject (you) or somebody who's actually been on the mountain and seen how things work.

I think one of the key facts PP forgets is that those logging companies spend a lot of money to lobby the politcians who control public lands. Simpson, and the rest are lobbying for cheap leases and little regulation for use of those lands. Therefore it's the private companies that are responsible for the shitty condition of public land they use.

Give me land lots of land with the starry sky above, don't fence me in... Congrats.

I'm confused. I thought Annabelle was climbing on Everest, but I guess she climbed something In New Orleans.

Actually the tall dry grass by the freeway is more environmentally correct. The grass grows, then drys, then a passing motorist throws out a cigarette but which starts a huge brush fire which cleanses the land in much the same way that a lightning strike would. The homeowner grass is not natural at all. Sure she puts pride and attention into her property, but it's the wrong kind of attention, and it causes a lot of nasty runoff that screws up a lot more property then her little chunk of lawn.

A better for Fairweather

...because he is "dissin'" other's attempts. In a way, it is a sort of socially enforced karma. If you had actually read my post you would know that I didn't slam her. I said she deserves the same respect a triathelete deserves. I also pointed out that she took advantage of what she had to get funding. My only comment that was at all negative was that it isn't much of a mountaineering accomplishment. The fact of the matter is that Sherpas set all the fixed lines on the South Col Route in some years they set fixed lines practically to the summit. If you jugged fixed lines all the way up El Cap that's not the same as setting the fixed lines. Your attitude sucks Scott.

Bummer
