The HEX 30-Jan-2006 10:46:48 PM	--------------------- Mousey --- I found this pearla ... a rare view of the ' approach ' to the Col of Patience ( left on skyline ) , where we will climb to , to dig a snow cave for use on the descent ... our ascent route (5 Years In Paradise 20+&A2+) goes straight up the East face above the triangular-snow-field (on the right ) and finishes up the ' Bridwell Pitch ' on the Compressor Route ( Left Skyline ) ... we will then rap , but not chop, the bolts of The Compressor Route , to the rum-ballz & beef-jerky stash waiting at the snow-cave ... then snow-board down the ' approach ' ... while getting some sick fkn ' air ' as we hurtle over the ' shund ... and hence to BC ... I suggest we seriously look to ACTUALISING --- (see Maslowz theory on the ordering of human motivation,1945) --- this project during January, 2007 ..........yeah ?....YEAH !!! ------------------------- I bagz leading the final-summit-mushroom-pitch !!! --------------------------
