bump....whats the turnout looking like? Just seeing if its a go or a bust....

I used to not wear them b/c I felt I looked like a pussy. But, then someone (Mad Townie I think) told me how good they were for camping and more importantly backpacking - lightweight, dry real fast - actually they don't even really get "wet" - I bought a pair cheap and never looked back pro's...

cool pix and report darlene - I am glad you got to get on it. Looks pretty tough from where I sit..:D I thought it was just so cool to get over there and experience the whole ALPS thing - summits or not, you can say you climbed in the alps on a couple classic peaks... that doesn't suck. ;):D

where and what are these Adirondacks? There is nothing tougher than the presidentials anywhere - ask any new englander..:eek::p;)

that was funny......could be worse tho...you could have been not even let into a bar in IRELAND b/c your were too blitzed...... that has happened to me and I am freakin pround of it...:D

thx for the greenie

anyone up for a beer night next thur? Got to be in town a bit later than normal for work, mind as well make a night of it... good to go anytime after 6:30.... Something downtown?? Celebrate Double Bow's move to Boston area? Elephant and Castle on Devonshire?

On this note - I ended up calling and getting my own site. At the time, they were clear about the party and were pretty clear they were not screwing around with any unregistered guests, etc... they don't want anyone bringing the party back to the campground, etc..... I think it would not be...

great stuff dave and all

rav4 - 4cyl, nearly 30 mph highway, 4wd - tons of storage I test drove them all - and this was the best.

Jess - miss the NE? I think you just got caught in some terrible weather... If you had nice mostly sunny days and the outcome = much different. I was in Europe from 6/12 until 7/2 and I heard it rained every day I was gone... thats not fun. Nice report and read! Thanks for not...

hey there - we should be up north in aug - will drop a line... might take the little dude up welch dickey - see how that goes and then maybe peirce and see how it goes... not sure he is ready for a 4k-er - but he has surprised us before..

kim - thx for the greenie - I heard you had a bday party or something while was away... happy bday... Hope to see you guys soon... gotta to make some calls about next summer - I have been invited on a denali trip, but not sure its gonna work since thats 3 weeks and I have to go to scotland...

great report - I can't wait to start doing this with my son. I just hope he enjoys it as much as Alex. Maybe then, I will finally finish the 48:o... :)

Great effort and great cause. I am sure this was tons of fun. :D Some great times there fo' sure! Court, now stop this hiking stuff and get back to climbing...;):rolleyes::eek:

Can't wait - I sorted out my camping situation and have a couple back-ups.... no deb this year, she decided going to NYC to catch a boradway show and party with some of her freinds in the big apple instead.... which means, nobody to keep a leash on me - not sure if thats good or bad...ha

SK - trust me when I say - you were with us in spirit for sure... never forget Aug 2005!!!:D:D

Echo and the Bunnymen rule!!!! very very underated... thx for the nice comments...

ohhhhh yea..... :eek:

and its quite surprising too - how much the friction of the rope over the snow and lip can help too. I think when the stuff happens, the mind really reverts to "training" mode and you do what you need to do to get it done. When I was trying to get Arm's pack out - for a minute, I didn't...
