Is it just me? Jul 31, 2008 07:25 PM
(Total replies: 2)
Welcome to attrition yonsosa! I think that is a good point. It is just about personal responsibility. While we make improvements in technology that make us safer, we let society take a larger role in providing us with security and take less and less responsibility for our actions. ie: I spilled the hot coffee you sold me so I am going to sue you! It's just that we go into the mountains to get away from civilization, so why can't that aspect of civilization stay out of our wilderness? Relax! You will get over it.

Or does any one else get tired of hearing how DANGEROUS Big Four ice caves are? I've been going to them for about 30 years, at least a couple dozen times, and explore as much as I can each time. Yeah I know some people have been killed there and I mean no disrespect but... GEEZ! Should we close down anyplace somebody dies? Mt. Rainier? Sorry somebody died here no more climbing. Mt Hood? After decades of thousands of people climbing every year, now they don't want you on the mountain without a personal locator device! Come on, you are out in the (so-called) wilderness. Take responsibility for yourself and get over it. With all the improvement in gear and other technology, the wilderness is safer than it ever has been. Yeah, you could die at the Ice caves. How much more likely is it you will die in your car on the way there? I-5 closed because somebody might die!!!! Thank you, that is all. Relax! You will get over it.

Hi, richmor Good to see a new user on the boards  Daily NW forest passes are available at many retail locations.

Hey John The changes are great. It sure beats having to scroll all the way past the list of hikes to get to the content at the bottom of the page. That was always a problem for my browser was in anything other than full screen. Thanks, and keep up the good work. Derek Relax! You will get over it.

The Mountain Loop Hwy outside of Granite Falls has a great selection of lower elevation hikes. Try this one, it has a number of railroad tunnels to explore along with great scenery along the Stilliquamish River http://www.fs.fed.us/r6/mbs/recreation/activities/trails/drd/old_robe.htm Relax!

 The PI this morning said it had lost the battle with gravity. It grew enough to remain the same height, but about one third broke off. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/6600ap_wst_mount_st_helens.html Relax! You will get over it.

Smartwool Expedition Trekking May 5, 2006 09:54 PM

Smartwool ROCKS! I bought three pairs and loved them. Yeah they were expensive. It seems like they are not too durable, mine have not got runs, but they get a lot of those fuzzy little balls on them. I wear them all the time and they make my feet feel great. Bought five more pairs on ebay for $40 Relax! You will get over it. Edited by ddogg7864 on May 5, 2006 at 09:55 PM

Bivy sacks May 5, 2006 08:43 PM
(Total replies: 0)
I bought a Mountain Hardware gore tex bivy sack last year. I had not used it but knew I would need it if I was going to do any serious peak bagging. Well I had it with me on a snowshoe hike at Hurricane Ridge in March. Long story short, we got in a whiteout and ended up spending the night unplanned. I was AMAZED at the difference it made! No sleeping bag, just the bivy. The temps dropped into the low twenties and I was never uncomfortably cold, I was not warm by any means, but I would definitely keep you alive in an emergency. And it weighs less than 2lbs, packs into a stuff sack that is 8"x3". I won't leave home without it Relax! You will get over it.

My climbing/hiking partner of 20 plus years, (since teenagers) blew out his knee and is only able to do short moderate hikes. Bad timing, last year was slow and I spent the winter buying new gear and getting ready to hit it. Now I just need someone interested in doing some challanging routes. Stuff like Vesper Peak, The Brothers, Ingalls Peak etc. Scrambles, 4th class, low 5th class. Send me a message and we can talk. Derek Relax! You will get over it.
