3 more for the memorial 214 people. Is there anywhere in the states that compares?

It rocks as always. If you go, I recommend not making Commodor Rivadavia a stop on your trip though. Ugh, windy oiltowns. At least there´s lomo!

I´m in Argentina right now I tried to play REI´s management game, it irritates me greatly when people claim you can too - they´ve stacked the deck.

Listen you little tool. Its 16,000´signatures in 3 months from active members (and no, they won´t give you a list) to be on the board ballot. And only 2 members can be from this process, the rest are board nominations.The rest of your points show you be the dumbass everyone treats REI employees as. Management does listen to forums like this, and responds quite quickly to angry letters. Trying to head off reform?

Too bad I´ll miss you. A Calafate parilla is on order for you today

Moron. I have an equity position in REI. Look at your annual statement in the mail - "membership equity" (somewhere on the order of $300 million). The members are the owners of REI.

I've asked. They refuse. AlpineDouche- I want to sell my stock at market value, not what I paid in.

You also like sheep.

So don't fucking read the thread! I don't want to burn my membership card. I want my fucking money!

ahh yes, we are in the postmodern era.

Fine. But the "members" or shareholders should have a say in the running of the corporation. They are the owners after all. REI has management has marginalized the owners (members) so they can run it as a personal fifedome.

Soixante-Neuf?

I packed a backpack

Woohoo! $150k down the shitter! Man gets 6 years for stealing malt liquor A Watsonville man who robbed a liquor store of a 40-ounce beer was sentenced Friday to six years in prison. Manual Suarez, 22, was convicted of the May 7 holdup of LuLu’s Fiesta Liquor & Deli on Freedom Boulevard after being caught on videotape and after police found a handgun and other evidence in his home. Police said the store clerk was so frightened when Suarez pointed the gun at her that she ran out of the store, which spooked Suarez and he ran out, too, with only the beer. He had admitted to second-degree robbery and an allegation of using a gun, getting three years for each. Robbery is a strike under California’s three strikes law and a serious and violent felony, meaning Suarez will not be eligible for parole until he serves 85 percent of the sentence. Prosecutor Paul Marigonda said Suarez had a minor record.

To reach the point where I took the picture was 2-3 hours from camp. I'd estimate another 2-3 to the ridge, but the terrain was pretty nasty, steep grass/heather or scree. Not fun stuff. I'd like to try and get up there this summer, we'll see.

Tahoe City or Truckee?

Get better at trolling.

I got a couple thousand feet up Kilkelly creek. is a pic from below the highpoint. The maintained section of the trail (8miles ish?) could probably be mountain biked, the unmaintained section (7-8 or so) has enough logs and other problems it'd be more trouble than it's worth. Excellent camping along the river bottom - if you don't mind the wandering elk.

Paying $31k a year for someone who contributes nothing to society is a good thing? Recidivism is a good thing? 60% of California prison inmates will be back in prison within 3 years. What, exactly is good about having a large prison population? They get out at some point, and have to be reintegrated into society, or they've just gone to criminal college

With the low snowpack this year 2 days is definitely reasonable to get to the Valhallas. I went labor day w/e of '03 and the creek approach was almost completely dry. Queets bottom approach is cruising easy. Bigass horsecamp just past the end of the trail (mile 16 or so)

Don't date americans.

Most of the manufacturers will sell you a replacement handle for cheaper than the cost of the new shovel if'n you don't find it.

The real question is do more people own guns, not do the same people own more guns. You conveniently avoid that.

That's a problem? If your interested in meeting a date that's good - but desperation women can sense a mile off (and that's bad).

If that's all it takes for an awesome bouldering destination why aren't people flocking to northern Minnesota? I'd say this is a bit more inspiring:
