Anyone up for a quick escape to the peaks? I've got a NPS Pass, and room for one
or two
climbers at 40 mpg. Willing to repeat many Yosemite peaks, and about Mammoth as
well.
Can leave anytime to about Thursday. Camping and peak bagging, meals in
restaurants or as
you please.

Hi,

The group for this weekend is coming together. And there is lots more room on the campsite! If you haven't decided yet, come on up, but let me know.

So far I know of:

* Danny and guest Ascan
* Lea and guest Jack
* Leo and guest Paul Hara
* Fiona and Mark
* Mark M
* Heike
* Joni and Paul - if they can make it
* Loulena and friend - climbing together and socializing with us
* Dave Rucker and Jason Straub - climbing together and socializing with us

If you want to carpool or need a climbing partner, please let me know as well. I'll do my best to facilitate.

Cheers, Heike

I've decided to replace my ancient mountaineering tent and I'm trying
to decide between the Go Lite Hex 3 or the Black Diamond Megemid lite.
Both are roughly the same size, same price ($235 base $300 w/floor),
same options, same weight (3lbs or 4.5 with floor).  Does anyone know
of any details that would tip the scale one way or the other?

Now, add this to the mix.  I have a line on a barely used Black
Diamond Skylight package (3 person Bibler style) for about $350
weights about 5+ lbs.

Your perspective will be appreciated.

Got a little couch potato?
Check out fun summer activities for kids.

There is also the Montbell Gore-tex bivy sack for 7oz you might want to
look into. Super-ultralight and smaller than a coke can. I used it
recently on my thru-hike of Roper's Sierra High Route w/o resupply and
it performed really well.

Hi all,

I just wanted to let everyone know I got back safely from the doing a
thru-hike of Roper's Sierra High Route without resupply.  195 miles and
most of it is off trail. I finished the route in 11 days 13 hours and
17 minutes.  I stated on Sunday July 8 at 7:43am with 12 lbs of organic
raw vegan food (sun-dried fruits and nuts) and less than 5 lbs gear,
for a total starting pack weight of 17 lbs. I climbed 5 peaks along the
way, and hiked from 12 to 14 hours per day. I had a beautiful journey,
and saw 2 bears, lots of deer, one spotted fawn, rabbits, ptarmigans,
grouse, mice, pika, marmots, and lots of flowers, and pristine meadows
and lakes on the x-country route. I finished the route last Thrusday,
July 19 at 9pm in Twin Lakes above Bridgeport, CA.
This was an experiment in minimalism while maximizing on the energy of
raw vegan foods. No bear canister, no tent, no stove, no water filter,
no soap, no mosquito repellant, no problems !!!

peace&love,

Adrian Stingaciu

Hey Tom

 

thanks for the pics for those of us who couldn't make this trip.  See you at Glacier Lodge!

Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL.com.

I lost about 10 lbs in 12 days. Ate about 11 lbs of food the entire
route, less than 1 lb a day. Had enough energy to hike 10-12 hours per
day. I bonked out only once on the route, the day after I did 23 miles
on 10 oz of food ration. After that I increased food intake as much as
I needed and felt great!

Here's some pictures from the route.

To: Rock Rendezvous <rock-rendezvous@yahoogroups.com>
CC: megandel@...
From: Scott Johnston <kinetic043@...>
Date: Thu, 2 Aug 2007 10:00:00 -0700 (PDT)
Subject: [rock-rendezvous] August RR meeting don't miss it!

It's time for the monthly RR meeting again.  This month Megan Delehanty will be showing slides from her attempt on Everest from North Side.  Anna Sommer has bravely offered to host the meeting at her place in Berkeley.  Also as usual at the meeting we get to talk climbing, recruit partners, and generally pretend that climbers have social lives.  Don't forget to bring food and drinks to share.

Who: YOU!
What: RR monthly meeting
When: August 7, 7:00 p.m.
Where: 617 60th St

This should be a great slide show so don't miss it

Directions:

So the place is pretty easy to find.  If you're doing the public transit thing, take BART to Ashby, walk down Woolsey St. towards Shattuck, turn right on Shattuck and walk until you hit 60th St.  I'm the white house with blue trim; street number is 617.  Folks can call 617-838-9910 if they are lost.  Driving directions are probably easiest by just googling them from wherever you're starting from.
