Same here. What he and Feck said.
I use my plastics with my AT set-up to access ice climbs (only need one pair of boots that way).
I have a tele set-up that I use for BC sking (different boots and skis entirely).
If you're rapping the SCW descent, you're probably lost.
Never laid claim to being another Jim Bridger... it's been at least 10 years since I've been on SCW.
Last Sunday, Kurt Hicks and I got to the SCW parking lot mere moments before 7pm. It was still light enough to not need headlamps for about another 15-20 minutes after that. That was a week ago, so it'll be dark enough now by 7 pm fer shure.
At that hour, you'll have left the building by the time I get there. If Porter doesn't need/want my help, I'll look you up. Leave a note/message with someone telling me where you went.
Lots of people want to forget my name after they meet me.
Pour another glass of the red you served me, grab another piece of that Texas Sheet Cake, and take a load off, gurl.
Have you seen the forecast for 11worth for this weekend? It doesn't get any better than this for October. Low 60s daytime highs, low 30s nighttime lows. Top off them propane tanks in the Westfalia and git yer butt down here. Now, Shugga!
I'm planning on cutting out of work at noon tomorrow to pack the truck, then the "3 hour tour" to 11worth. Should be there before sundown. I'll hep ya wit' stuff when I git thar, if'n ya need/be a-wantin' it.
