willstrickland Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 -48F at Casa Strickland right now. Yesterday morning, -46F. Tomorrow, heat wave -25!! You would think at some point that your employer would have a cut off point where the ice fog and frostbite danger is a liability. In fact, most agencies have some point where they say "just stay home today" My employer? No. But they remind you that they have a "liberal leave policy", in other words you are more than welcome to take one of your few and precious vacation days. The worst part of -48F? Being stuck in a house with NO BEER, and whole bean coffee WITH NO GRINDER. ARRRHHHGGGHHH!! My damn head is pounding from caffeine withdrawl. /end rant.

Bogen Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Been there. Put beans in dish towel, pound the shit out of em with your shoe. You won't get it very fine, so use lots, but it works ok in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinfox Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 My advice: 1) open a window 2) crawl out window 3) rope up the neighborhood dogs and mush into town 4) go to store and buy a grinder (AND BEER!) 5) enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducknut Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 It really doesn't matter if it is - F or -C when it gets that cold, does it? I have to go to Bethel in early February. Think I'll start preparing now. Anyone want to try a naked winter climb of Hood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
