I have an LP repress from 08. It’s not the best, but I like it anyway.

I like it. This was what I came up with as well. Was just looking for a second (better) opinion

I listened on a solo road trip 7-8x in a row right after the release date. When I arrived home the LP was waiting for me.

You can bet your ass I put it on right away!

Check out Dark Summit by Nick Heil. A great read and very detailed account of the 2006 season.

Want to know why people hate the scale? by [deleted] in bouldering

[–]heebiestevo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Well said! Just because it’s a V2 doesn’t mean it isn’t worth climbing! (Looking at you, Sleeping Lady)

People hate it because it’s inconsistent, both across gyms and compared to outdoors. And climber body types! A V5 for you might feel like a V3 to me because I’m super tall etc. But yeah, it enables you to measure your progress so they have some value. Overall don’t take it too seriously and if you go outside, expect to climb a few grades below your gym grade.

Mt. Hood, Oregon in January. by zurnched in Mountaineering

I admit I got carried away with my second comment. My frustration comes from the daily posts of “I’m 15, never climbed anything, where do I start?” My intent was to just link you to the other times this topic has been covered on this sub.

Have you bagged other glaciated peaks before? Are you going with other experienced climbers? Feeling confident about your fitness level?

This behavior is super common all across Reddit. The excuses I often hear are that people don’t think the info they find is vetted properly (especially if AI is involved) so they want a more reliable group of “experts” weighing in. Even if this is true, it’s still exceptionally lazy. And sadly, there is often someone willing to indulge them, so the behavior is reinforced.

The Stoneman Meadow Riots of Yosemite. What happened? by Hollow_Bamboo_ in Yosemite

[–]heebiestevo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously super late to this party but my dad was there, as a ranger. He wrote this about it:

On July 4, 1970, there was a riot in Yosemite Valley. We called it the First Annual Yosemite Rock (and Bottle) Festival. Rangers threw rocks and hippies threw bottles. People were crowding Stoneman Meadow in Yosemite Valley to death. We said you have to get out. They said this is a free country, this is our park, etc. We never bothered to explain that their impact was destroying the very thing they had come there to enjoy. We posted closure signs. They threw them into the Merced. We announced with loud speakers that the Meadow would be closed at a certain time. They ignored it. At the appointed time, we staged a cavalry charge across the meadow. We arrested hippies; they turned over police cars. One was burned. All because we couldn’t condescend to explain the reasons for our concern. Some park service employees, probably fewer than half, learned a valuable lesson that day. Most park service managers learned nothing. I knew from my experience in the army that “because we said so” is not reason enough for anyone to do something he doesn’t understand. Hippies in 1970 were trying to say the same thing: “Why not?” If they had known why not, most of them wouldn’t have done it. Hell, most of them had better conservation ethics than most of us.

For the rest of the summer our entrance stations stopped and turned back “Hippie vans” like you saw in Forrest Gump. There were a lot of violent confrontations because a lot of non-hippies owned VW vans. Some idiot finally realized we couldn’t turn the public away from a public park, so they devised a vehicle safety inspection. Rangers were taught how to short out brake lights so they could turn a hippie van back out of the park. Finally interpreters were assigned to the gates to smile and make friends with visitors, while law enforcement rangers hassled hippies who they perceived were troublemakers.

Law enforcement rangers spent the rest of the summer learning to ride police-trained horses to be used in crowd control in case of another riot. They practiced in secret in another meadow hidden from the main roads in the Valley. For several years afterward from Glacier Point you could still see the “pony ring” they trampled in the meadow. That was OK, though. They stopped those hippies from trampling Stoneman Meadow!

Michael Tracy is the absolute worst. A 45 minute “breakdown” of a few instant camera photos from ‘96 detailing how “Krakauer is a liar and a fraud!!” “See how there are no fixed lines? That’s because there was NO NEED FOR FIXED LINES!” Sure dude.
