    One flight over Alaska is enough to create a lifetime of nocturnal emissions.

    you have been the source of my intention to quit lurking and start posting for a long time, but my mother always told me that if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all.

    I believed her - until now.

    Yeah, you can get a cheap heli flight anywhere you want. Coastal's got a great deal - $300 for an A-star within 10 miles of the airport for a drop. But you need to have people who actually want to ski with you to keep the costs down. And there are no guides, so you'd better have your shit together, son. If you don't know where you are going you are hosed.

    You aren't considering coming here for college are you?

    Probably the reason the guy never called you back about the job is that YOU CAN'T EVEN SPELL YOUR OWN FUCKING NAME!

    Mike, I think he's talking about when he DOES get his shit together. He's getting a beacon and, let's pray to Ullr, snow safety classes.

    AKPM: don't head out there until you know which end's up! You show ignorance every time you ski in the backountry without the proper skills or equipment! I'm not being a prick, I'm trying to get the point across that you SHOULDN'T BE OUT OF THE RESORT UNTIL YOU GAIN SOME MORE KNOWLEDGE! Don't become another statistic!

    the reason to go to UAS is to get my shit together. They have a 2 year program in outdoor leadership as well Envirmental Science as a major alot involving snow science and hydrology. I have no idea what any of these mountains are called, just other random coast range peaks... Tomorrow I'm hitting eaglecrest, hopefully it won't rain

    That's a sick picture of a sick couloir. A little quickie Photoshop and I got me a new desktop background:

    AKPM, check out this site -- figuring out some basic color correction will take your pictures up a notch. Unfortunately it won't turn out-of-focus jibbering into double-exposed slough-everywhere gnar and it won't teach you to spell, but it's still worth a look.

    So yeah, I agree with what everyone else said here: nice work, more of this, less out-of-focus jibbering.

    I'm sure there are still some first decents to be had up there, maybe one day there will be mount powder monkey, or powder monkey couloir. Or maybe Dead monkey's leap, if you arnt so lucky.

    Good luck up there, dont die, and its ok to let girls touch your penis.

    Scientists now have decisive molecular evidence that humans and chimpanzees once had a common momma and that this lineage had previously split from monkeys.

    Note to self: Stop requesting naked sister pics from telenater.
    I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.
