What was *she* riding?

[olyclimber]

"me and my mounties like to play this game, some call it amtrak but we call the train, we always line up in a single file line, and take our turns..."

[counterfeitfake]

is that a mountaineer brake? like a carabiner brake only fatter?

[Cobra_Commander]

This doesn't look quite like the mounties, but more like classic SAAAAARRRR (though the mounties may well be their number one customer).

[enelson]

yes, read my title and this question will make sense. who the f are these mounties everyone is always making fun of . if this is them in the picture, they are certainly deserving of the ridicule and the past few weeks of being a little confused about the reference will be a cleared to me.

[olyclimber]

First of all, if you want to join the mounties, you have to sit on the porch. Maybe Twight will notice you, maybe he won't. Go put up so mind-bending, revolutionary new ice or mixed routes that no one in their right mind would repeat, and just wait on the porch.

[enelson]

I think i would prefer avoiding the group if i have to make the face of that second guy in line at any point of induction, on a porch or not. 1st rule of the mounties....

Pretty sure this isn't the Mounties. The woman in the front is not wearing gaters.

"Is this steep? Cuz this feels REAL steep!!":

 

 

 

 

"Hay, Guyz! Wait for me! Hay, wait!":

[G-spotter]

That one-zipoff-leg-half-unzipped look must fuckin' reel in the Mountie babes So debonair and yet so manly.

It helps when he "uncoils"

[meadlx200]

At least zip-off is using a prussik back-up--hard core.

Looks like he's confused by the lack of PBR in his left hand.

Why aren't they wearing leather gloves?

[archenemy]

GARYYYYYY

Welcome back!

[Jens]

The Mountaineers Organization train pic at the top gave me the best laugh I've had in weeks!

[G-spotter]

 

"This is the way the Jamaican Bobsled Team practices, honest!"

[rob]

Whatever they're doing, that second guy is exhausted by it.

[Chad_A]

Sweet. At least they're wearing bright reflective colors so they're able to see each other.

[Dave_Schuldt]

Funny shit!

[Mos_Chillin]

"Damn brush! I knew I should a worn gaitors!"

 

[Mos_Chillin]

"OK, just another wrap around the neck, then one more through the crotch.

Then the bandaloops just let go and start spinning. You wanna try first?"

 

[Choada_Boy]

 

Be sure to write the date on your helmet so that your partners can tell what month and year it is at a glance. Otherwise, it just isn't safe.

[G-spotter]

 

Bump!

I've seen some right fucking gapers at Squamish over the years... like this guy
