  1. I'm glad I'm not the only one who wondered this. Whether or not they have alot of words for snows, it's well documented they have a buttload of string games- http://www.isfa.org/arctic.htm A new set of finger dexterity exercises to market to sportos?
  2. Gee Matt - which should I take off? The Goretex jacket? Or the liner underwear? Thanks for the advice!
  3. Are you joking? Smoking Crack? Or is the Fission this new miracle piece that you can use while climbing, and as a belay jacket? The Cloudveils nice - good cut. The DAS is nice - and $150 here
  4. I always wet inside out (sweat) when building a snow cave.
  5. So what? There was honest to god icecicles forming in the Gorge!
  6. It's available here for $150. You might also try REI - who now carries Montbell, or next time your in Boulder stop by their store. For useless trivia, what climber was product advisor the last time Montbell was around?
  7. That thoughts puckering enough..
  8. Excellent book! Also fun for sierra fans is the collection of Norman Clyde works.
  9. Silly me - I assumed a response featuring pitzips, to this line: "Coated Nylon is nice stuff though - but I don't know where you'd find stuff with pit zips. I've better luck opening chest pockets wide, and the unzipping the fly - seems to vent heat much quicker. YMMV. " Was talking about jackets. Unless of course your umbrellas have chest pockets.
  10. Were you even paying attention? This is rubber coated fabric. It don't breathe.
  11. Umbrella's blow. If it's raining enough that I want rain protection - an umbrella doesn't do jack for me (it'll keep me dry to maybe my midtorso), unless it's one of those monster PGA specials that don't fit on trails. Of all the dumb Jardine pitched ideas that one's tops. Coated Nylon is nice stuff though - but I don't know where you'd find stuff with pit zips. I've better luck opening chest pockets wide, and the unzipping the fly - seems to vent heat much quicker. YMMV.
  12. Is the grand CO loather thinking of the PRB?
  13. I've yet to see a post on any board with actual, factual expereince. It's all just suppostions, hearsay, and distortions. Would be interested to hear from an actual user.

    RIBBED

    A hearty 4th to NWA and and
  15. If you've got a male partner Necro, why do you bother with the packets?
  16. That's what eBays for! Unless of course it's outdoor equipment.....
  17. I believe the Moutain Tent turned into the Mountain 25 around mid 90's. (There may have been an earlier Mountain Tent of a different design) At the point it changed it was name only (aside from the nice color coded pole sleeves) - there should be interchangeability. Bomber Tent.
  18. Oh boy that couple hours of exertion before bed is fun!
  19. Supposed to be sunny on Saturday
  20. I bought 'em used - they've got a pair already mounted
  21. I've a pair (187's) - but I've yet to put any turns on them. Have heard alof different comments on the 'bow - people say the smaller sizes are noodlier, where's the bigger tends to be burly.
  22. If IR were regulated the Fat Asses of America would unite to overthrow the FCC - TV remotes are IR emitters.

    Poles?

    Stop by GIJoes, buy a gun cleaning kit. Matt - I don't have enough energy to break trail kicking - but can follow a decent track using kick & glide (having narrower skis helps for this).
  24. Speak not so harshly to the bookread boy wonder! I too have front pointed without secondary points. It's not that bad.
  25. A passport's $85, good for 10 years, and all you need is 2 pictures, an offical copy of your birth certificate/immigration form (i.e. what you need to get into canada), and a driver's license. It make's your life alot easier. You need it to travel outside of Canada/Mexico.
