freeclimb9 Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 Are Canadians always prone to exclusivity? Do I gotta join some club to see bivuoac.com? Why does serratus.com require a password? Are some people just not clear on how capitalism works (you gotta reach your customers)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoboy Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 Uh - bivouac don't sell anything. It's worth it. As for serratus, that's really weird! Maybe they made a mistake, and no one can get in their to tell them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted February 3, 2003 Author Share Posted February 3, 2003 If you go right to www.serratus.com, are you telling me you can't view it? That IS weird, if its the case! As for why you have to register to view Bivouac.com, its mainly for the Recommendation feature. If you dont want your info gathered, make up fake info, and use a disposable email address. However, if you ever plan to contribute anything it is better to register using your real name, so people know who to thank. The system is set up, so that anyone who registers can insert route descriptions, photos, and trip reports, and to discourage anonymous browsing. The idea being, that you will think it is such a great site, you will want to contribute to it. Personally, I think its grown to be one of the better mountaineering sites on the web, and props to Robin Tivy, who set it up, and Fred Touche, who basically works there for free, cause Robin can't afford to pay him. The geographical database system, is highly effective at filtering out spray, so the site is 100% about content, but not as effective a diversion when you are bored at work and want to talk shit. But hey that is one of the function of cascadeclimbers.com so to Jon and Timmay too!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freeclimb9 Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 Must've been a temporary problem at serratus.com (or serratus.ca) because it's accessible today. Now why can't I find pogies on their site? BTW, Crad is in rare form this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted February 5, 2003 Author Share Posted February 5, 2003 i dunno why they dont have pogies on there. send em an email! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Serl Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 dru, good work; great info. u said u didn't want to get into details, but what the hell... 1. the original start to the SE buttress lies left of the bottom section of "D2"; you can make the direct entry in winter i guess, but in summer u climb 2 or 3 pitches to about 5.8 straight up from about the middle of that snow-patch, then traverse left (easy) a couple hundred feet pretty much horizontally to the very bottom of the shadowed couloir. 2. the start of "K1" ought to continue horizontally right to the darker (bushy) grooves, then breaks straight up. then it moves out left from the crest just below where the angle of the ridge twists left, on the slab with the little white mark. picky, picky, eh... cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted February 6, 2003 Author Share Posted February 6, 2003 well fwiw the route line for the east face is totally made up too! and station d buttress should follow the sun shade line to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshK Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 hey joshK i normally use a spoon, rusty shared needle and candle.... oh you mean shoot PICTURES with CAMERA gear... eh a pentax and fuji 100 slide film hahahah So are you lucky enough to have a high quality slide scanner? I've started shooting slides and I'm trying to figure out the best way to get slides (or negs for that matter) on to the computer. Most of the services I have found around here to do it are either too low end (basically just meant for having pics to email) or too high end (expensive drum scans for digital reprints.)

snoboy Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 Dru gets his slides scanned at the same time they are developed at London Drugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted February 7, 2003 Author Share Posted February 7, 2003 yeah they have a good deal, $5.99 CDN for 36 slides scanned to disk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshK Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 What resolution pics generally result from their scans? The price certainly sounds right if the results are good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
