The moral of the story is Bashlin knocked it out of the park decades ago with their aluminum climbers.
I love seeing the gear and tools evolve. It’s wild seeing what folks come up with when they get to thinking and have access to space age materials. I’m pretty guilty of spending more than I...

My Uncle Gary is retired now, but he’ll probably stay involved and up to date on the research and ecology of bats for the rest of his life. Still does some writing and lectures. Such beautiful and fascinating animals. Gary is a super nice guy and very...
Thursday, Mr Trump was asked what he, as president, would do to make childcare more affordable and accessible.
“ Well, I would do that, and we’re sitting down, you know, and I was, somebody, we had uh Senator Marco Rubio, and my daughter Ivanka was so, uh, impactful on that issue. It’s a very...
Those are ridiculously baggy, but maybe I’d try them.
I wear the old US military issued BDU pants. If sized right they’re baggy enough. Double reinforced knees, gusset crotch, ties at the ankles, which I never really use, but might if I had to walk through some tall grass or weeds and wanted to...
"I watched Sheldon sitting so proud in the White House when we gave Miriam the Presidential Medal of Freedom. That's the highest award you can get as a civilian. It's the equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor, but civilian version," said Trump as he spoke from the podium in front of...
That’s a pretty plate of chow! I need to try beef Wellington. My kid and GF watch a lot of Chef Gordon Ramsay, and that’s his signature dish, it always catches my eye and makes me drool a little.
lol we used to stick toothpicks in the front of peeps and put two of them close together facing each other in the microwave, hit quick-minute and see which one gets stabbed first. Peep jousting.
I’ve gotten lots of stuff from him too. Thought it was kinda weird that he wouldn’t take any payment besides a personal check, but he had a good reputation.
Some new X-static, some random new carabiners, pulleys, annd other hardware all from DMM, and a like new MS201TCM with 2 new 14” bars and...
It doesn’t make sense, usually.
Bart, it sounds like this is weighing heavily on your mind and I want to share something with you that pulls me out of the hole when I start getting overly focused on past trauma. I’m still turning shit over in my head from 20 years ago, but what I keep coming...
It’s just getting crazier and crazier out there.
Three line clearance workers employed by Asplundh, aka The Big Orange, were shot and sustained serious injuries yesterday in North Carolina. Crazy scumbag also managed to get himself shot by police during the arrest.
As far as we know, everyone...
Did I ever tell you guys about the time I brewed my coffee with Red Bull instead of water?
I was halfway to work before I realized I’d forgotten my car.
French press is the way to go. Don’t even need electricity if you got another way of heating the water. Can also make it with cold water, so long as you start it 12 hours or so before you want to drink it.
FTC makes good stuff, but I already know I won’t like those gaff points, and I’m not so sure about the clicky straps.
Anyone remember the Wolf Claw spikes from maybe 20 years ago? I thought they looked so dope in the Sherrill catalog, but I found a few reviews that convinced me not to bother...
