If you are referring to the same Lex Maxwell that was one of the "Founding Fathers" of Central Washington Mountain Rescue, and Mountain Rescue in the PNW in general, I could probably put you in touch with one of the few surviving members who would have been in the original unit with him over 50 years ago. You also might try getting a hold of Lowell Skoog, since he talked with Lex on the phone a few years back. Lowell is fraught with PNW mountain lore.

I run hot. Always have. Sweat like a porcine in a slaughterhouse.

You are correct, sah! R&I, in I believe 1991. I have a copy of it stashed in one of my gear crates.

That pic needs to be sent in to a calendar company!

Nekkid as a jaybird. I once left on my base layers and my fleece jacket and pants in a -4F night in the Wallowas, thinking that my 20F bag needed the "boost" that my capilene and fleece would give. I sweated out early, soaked the bag and compressed the down, and chilled myself. I got out of my clothes, but my feet froze all night because that section of the bag never warmed up. Even a balaclava didn't help those po' dogs to git warm again...

I loved the section on Oscar's hobbies... Post-modern cardboard deconstruction, floral arrangement regurgitation, and rotational forms of performance art. The collaborative low-energy cardboard performance art was a riot, especially the critique by Zoey! My kitter seems to suffer from cat motivational problems, as he's an accomplished marathon lounger on a rigorous lounge training schedule and can typically be found in the traditional feline slumber position...

So this begs the question, Keith... We understand that Kurt struck out. What happened with you and your nekkid WonderWoman intern...?

:lmao: Being a professional engineer, and owned by a cat, I can heartily appreciate that video. Thanks, Mel, for that link. I haven't laughed so hard in years. My sides ache. I must go home and determine Phydeaux's aspect ratio. And get him to yodel...

Was wondering the same thing. I used to skydive decades ago (with a T10 modified), right about the time the original round ParaCommanders were going rectangular. With my old chute off Monkey Face, I would've face-planted in the tuft long before it fully deployed.

+1 Absolutely, Porter - enable that option! Way to uncage your soul, Joe! Simply crazy!

Definitely #2. Note that biner gate is up and back, NOT down and out, as prescribed in FOTH. And I'll lay even money that it isn't even LOCKED! Yeesh, it's amazing the d00d's still ALIVE!!1

with Thai boobies you shouldn't have to scroll the dare to find positive proof otherwise is implicit in the foregoing statement

Did you get your copy of This Is True over the weekend?

By all means, please.

Well, I guess I had more fun with baseball cuz I was the "target" as you say. I got in on every play.

Rudy, the wet blanket of cc.com... C'mon man, let the kids have a little fun before us "adults" screw 'em up fer the rest of their miserable little lives.

as in it sucks you in, and nothing can escape, not even light. cascadeclimbers.com... the event horizon of the intertubez

as in a "black hole" of despair?

You mean mankind really hasn't landed on the moon yet? Why, that lying bastard Neil Armstrong! Wait'll I get my hands on that schlemiel...

I sooooooo did NOT need to see that!

what...no meth? Ooooooo, yer right! OK, so I take back what I said about not recycling a damned thing. I recycled my piss so I could refine the meth out of it. Then I got high on the new batch of meth I made from it. Then pulled out a few teeth... rather easily, I might add.
