    Hurricane Sandy Alert from the Forest Service

    The main force is well south of Upstate NY. We're expecting high winds and two inches of rain, local flooding.. What are some of you all expecting in the other states, inland?

    There may be a thread on this somewhere? Mods what is the male/female ratio of this forums membership? An age breakdown would bee interesting as well. If possible?

    My Homeless Night Out Experience

    I remember how I first slept cold/cool. One of the best breakfastes I ever had the next morning. Still remember the smoky fire pit and the kid who ran to the lake so he could extiinguish his smooking sleeping bag out from sleeping too close to the fire for warmth. So the kids decdided to have...

    First we have to define what the characteristics the best hiker/climber has and see who has the superior combination of attributes. Lets just have some fun of this...ummm... no need for a battle of the sexes. :D I'll use more smilies. My toung n cheek attempts at humor doesn't seem to sit...

    [ weQUOTE=WinterWarlock;383715]The question, when posed the way you are posing it, is completely irrelevant, and a waste of space here.

    Not relevent? Your post on 10/22 I think is one of the best so far.

    Goad? Nope. Back to the first post, define/list what makes a person the better climber and why that is important to have on your six person team. So far we have strength and endurance. Is that all it takes to be the superior hiker? Now I'll give you a clue to my thoughts before drift goes...

    Sure we can, different doesn't mean it's unfair, one may be better suited because of the difference. "physical make up" Seems you're implying men a superior?

    Winter hiking- what do you carry in your pack?

    Good lists, I got a few good ideas. My only addition is what NOT to carry. ego stubborness ignorance false confidence an agressive agenda Know your limits. If you can't walk 10 miles easily on flat land then why in the world do you think you can climb up and down mountains all day in the winter?

    That's interesting. Can't say I have noticed that in the Adirondacks but I have seen solo women. Not knowing the women (and their sense of humor)I shouldn't speculate why they are solo :D:rolleyes: but it could be have fun trying. :D:p Now I'm in trouble!

    Man vs Women

    I think in a male dominated activity like this most would think men are superior. So far there are not any guys making that claim and not many women responding. So let me repharse the question. If you had to select a six person climbing team: would women be on the team, how many and why?

    Man vs Women

    Exactly! Define it and it won't be general, it will be specific. In a male dominated activity we may not be seeing what women are fully capable of. Does estrogen make a safer hiker offsetting the aggressiveness of the male hormone? Is mountain climbing a field leveling activity for the sexes?
