erik

nothing i dont bring anything i dont need...pretty much everything should serve two uses if possible. and i pack pretty much the same every single time, so i dont see how it would ever change.

one thing to note about the peips is that if it is the old analog model it will not pick up the newer digital beacons. so if you buy this make sure it is not analog. or you will never find your friends if they are buried.

we did a new route on the n face of the black pyramid this summer....great line on great rock. check out the tr around here somewhere. the ridge routes seem to be quite short and imho doing them would be a waste of time with soo many other great objectives in the area. we descended the e ridge with no difficulty and one rap from the summit with one rope.

no there is no major falls coming out of temple canyon... it is the falls seperating the upper and lower enchantments... nice work!

c.b. good to see you finally posted that report...i cant wait to get back there this summer and love the stuart range granite again...

dont forgot to top out the route...if you go to the rock horn you are only doing 1/2 of the route.

looks like you are making due erik!!!

yup the rain event is well buried as we enjoy another bought of fresh snow... dont be jealous iain just come visit.

when i flew to minnesota a few months back they searched my bag on the return trip home....didnt really bother me as there is nothing we can do about it...tho i really felt like saluting the little propaganda they tossed in my bag....

yup i have seen them for less then that with binders... and you should use the current picture to show the graphic since the ski has changed slightly from '02 to '03

we should be back in the area around june or so....

both are issues but i still say the real problem in utah are the people and especially the mormans.......what a bunch of fukkin morons.

i wondered about the route and headed up there in the rain....i cant wait to get back and do some scrubbing.... too bad i lost my index guide book and can no longer peruse and dream

those are not recent moab shots are they?? there is still some snow on the ground in the desert and the highs have been only around 40 at best. st george is your best bet for rock right now in utah...unless of course you like to be cold.

i know i love it. 5 days stright i have toured and today i am resting. will be out again sunday to love the wasatch snow and the desert tho i hate everything else about this state.

i love skiing in the wasatch and not having to work that much

there is snow in ibex

i just want to say sar did not find him, the alpental ski patrol did and they should be given due credit.

lead it and then come back and let us know...

yeah iain that is a good book, but alot of those routes dont come into shape till spring. and dave, your statement is riddidled with jealousy..which aint bad...but i DO want beta, you know more like personal experiences...

but the constant barage of powder and sun really makes for some super fun touring...been getting like 3000' of vert a day in the b/c and some fine on piste days at alta.... tho i will say that right now i am dead tired... whos got some beta for some more good tours in the wasatch...wolverine, cardiac, 10,420 linking the canyons and 3 others i dont remember the names of are already done.. please share!

that just because a person interpets what EVERYONE is apprently saying as spray does not mean that their comments are not valid. i say instead of shit canning all those post on the fat fuck dying in red rocks that it should be created into a spray post as well. i think there is a bit too much modding going on as of late...certainly the mods are left to their own discretion on what is what...but i think to let the thread/idea/conversation to flow and allow a basic dialogue to continue that ideas should not be terminated, only moved. tsk tsk tsk i have seen a dead 23 yr old woman stabbed about 20 times left in the middle of a rural street in peirce countny when i was 15 and on the p.c.s. sar. it was greusome but i choose to view it and dealt with it. it is only a reminder to what low levels humans can go to.....so why is my coping mechanism considered wrong???

he is not that lazy anymore...he's got a j-o-b now!!

i havent worked, but sure have been skiing... too much new snow..tele, alpine and at...dats me!! enjoy the washington

me thinks you not reasd enough of the weather and news. me thinks i dont care what you thinks. so fuck off.
