Dumbass Climbers?

[Alpinfox]

This dude does have the biggest backpack in the world on, though.

 

 

What you got in there, a tauntaun?!

 

They did say in their TR that they had -20 and -40deg bags.

 

Word of unsolicited advice to the noobs: get some lighter-weight bags.

[Ishmael]

what is the temp rating of a tauntaun?

[dberdinka]

maybe the nwhikers can come to the picnic for a full on CC.com vs NWhikers.net brawl.

[DirtyHarry]

No way. Coleman rectangle bags with the flannel liner and a cast iron stove to make a nice pot roast in is the only way to roll.

[Hugh Conway]

Did you wear any cotton on your trip?

 

I wore a cotton penis sheath, and only a cotton penis sheath.

Don't listen to this dude...he just wants to sell you a used sleeping bag.

 

I have carried a -10 degree Polarguard sleeping bag before, and now my whole pack weighs less, including licker.

Very Red Hot Chili Peppers's of you...

But its not hiking unless you wear gaitors...so you were clearly doing something else.

Oh god! Heartless criticism of my carlessness and noobness

[olyclimber]

for that i will kick your a$$ at the picnic. bring band aids.

[Choada_Boy]

Seems like they brought fifteen essentials. I especially enjoyed the part about almost walking down the wrong side of the mountain. Dur! Been there! Done that!

[olyclimber]

There is a time and place for criticism. There were definitely some lessons learned for the guys on this trip. Hopefully one of them wasn't "don't post your TR on CC.com".

 

[Edlinger]

I'm with Alpinfox on this one.

 

and on a sidenote....

NW hikers are the biggest wankers on the planet. Their exploits in the hills aren't even worthy of an internet discussion group. Well at least they can thank the us climbers for our approach routes to get to our mountians and routes. It gives the NW hikers their ideas, trails, trips, dreams, and personal Everests. Climbers have given them everything from the ultralight movement to thinking outside the box.

Edlinger was sodomized by a Klean Kanteen bivying with a nwhiker

[Edlinger]

Hugh was sodomized by a full size Nalgene.

[Hugh Conway]

Edlinger never understood memes until Hugh hotcarl'd him

[KaskadskyjKozak]

Post the threats. Let's see em.

 

someone threatened to cape his ass.

 

oh, wait, that's another thread

[Off_White]

Being a dumbass climber is just like masturbation: you've either done it or you're a liar.

Carl and I made up.

It was easy once he agreed that I was right and he could learn soooo much from me.

When are YOU going to see the lite?

[Hugh Conway]

He'll see a bright light the next time the police raid that farm in Enumclaw.

you can school me on a climb. ready?

[Alpinfox]

hahahaha

 

This layback guy cracks me up

 

A few things about me:

- I've hiked all of my life.

- I've been skiing for 26 years

- I've been climbing for 12 years.

 

My climbing partners (past & present) include:

- 2 climbing guidebook authors

- 1 author of a self-rescue book

- 1 AMGA rock and ice guide (my rope was the first he ever tied into)

- 1 former non-accredited alpine guide in WA state

- 1 current non-accredited guide in WA state

 

I'm not saying this to brag or massage my ego. Most on this site don't know anything about the 2nd list. I usually keep this stuff pretty close to me because that's how I am. I've learned from the aforementioned people that being a good climber also includes keeping your ego in check.

emphasis mine.

 

I think I might have to relinquish my coveted "consummate douchebag" title. I don't think I'm worthy of the crown in light of this recently minted gem.

[Bug]

I'm ready to climb anytime.

I make no garuntees on who will school who.

 

 

[Alpinfox]

I'm ready to climb anytime.

 

 

Do you know any former or current non-accredited guides?

[Alpinfox]

 

 

I'd like to send this one out to Layback.
