how about your bathroom scale. Weigh yourself, weigh yourself with your pack, do some math. I think it's called subtraction

I'm not sure if Dwayner is making fun of me or not, but I had a fun evening.

2 days it is then. I bet your buddy wouldn't post on the BB first though. He'd probably just go do it.

Oh I've heard of people doing 12,000' days, and I've heard of people skiing long distances, but not both. You are right there are some steep faces in the CR that would put Buckner to shame.

Rad man 30 miles, 8,000' vert, one day. I'll buy him two beers.

They had a party when the new VW opened. CrazyJZ and I did some drinkin and climbing then. Pretty dam fun. BTW every time you take a fall there your trusting CJZ's anchors.

Exactly after a night of drinking, smoking and a nice breakfast. But could he do it after 3 days of humping loads and winter camping? He might, but he also might not want to put up with that kind of bullshit. I'm sure some no name guy could do it, but I seriously doubt anyone looking for a ski partner on a BB a week before the trip could. But if he did I'll be the first to buy him a beer.

Tele Racing an Olympic sport...over my dead body As for ice dancing I agree the women are hot. The male dancers, well I can see why some might find them gay. I wish I was a better dancer though. Laugh if you will, but ask yourself this; will I get more dates because I've got a bunch or rad climbing stories to tell, or because I can dance.

Everyone's got an oppinion on what's a sport or what isn't. I'm glad I don't have to pick. Americans aren't into curling, but they love it up in the great white north and other places. It looks like a fun to me, but I like horse shoes too, not that horse shoes should be an Olympic sport. Remember it isn't a competition of US sports.

I hope he skied it and sprays all over your asses! Oh I don't think the actual siing of Buckner would be that bad ass. I mean I bet you could fall down the lower 2/3s and be ok. But hiking 14 miles into the parking lot would suck big time and trying to get to the base of the N face could be stupid dangerous.

Those approval ratings are fleeting. I'm sure everyone is pro George cause everyone's been focused on terror and shit. Just like everyone liked his dad after we kicked Iraq's butt. If the economy picks up people will still love him, but if it stays in the tank everyone will want a new president. Not that he has any control over the economy. But anyway how about that Jenna Bush. I bet Fairweather thinks she's hot. Kind of makes you reevaluate your stand on drugs huh F?

Well Rod you could have posted under climbing web pages and you could have left the, "friend," part out of the title. I think by this time we all know your who your close personal friend is. Perhaps I will check out the web site, but I think I'll probably spend my time looking at some guide books and planning some trips of my own.

I have a problem with Rod beating his chest. He could have posted the web site without doing this.

Right on Nickerson. If you don't know exit I-5 on Mercer, turn right on Fairview, turn left onto Valley (avoiding Hooters), turn right on Westlake and keep going until you get to the Fremont bridge. Look for the bar just south of the bridge. Of course cool people would use 99, but I don't want to confuse anyone.

Thermostat's are easy and cheap to fix, but if that doesn't work you might have problems with your choke.

Oh I like loadies. I am one... But I think a guy like George W who's born again might not. I get a good laugh every time one of his kids gets busted for drinking or something.

Uhm Rod if you notice I was telling you to get a canoe, while you were rippin on me.

I think your the one who's holding the grudge rod/asshole. And I was just trying to be helpfull.

I've been into Moran twice and walking around the north end of the lake really really sucks. Rent a canoe. Its worth the money.

Probably some piece of shit McCullick (Sp?) or Homelight. Remember it dies on him while he's using it. I hate to be unpatriotic, but American chain saws suck.

The name of the book strangely enough is, A Climbers Guide to the Teton Range. You can't use my copy, but I bet Carlos has one.

If I might make a suggestion. I would recomend a Stihl 020T for hand to hand combat. While it is smaller it is also lighter and balanced for one hand operation. You could have one in each hand.
