Great movie title, and a great trailer. Looking forward to this one, even from my desk here all the way over in snowy Bozeman, Montana today.
WATCH: Path of the Paddle
While this post somewhat varies from the implied typical subject matter of this site, I think I’m going to include it anyways and open things up a bit into the wet stuff out there as well as the mountain topics. There’s too many commonalities and histories and players to not keep it all circulating here, so keep your eyes peeled for more of this kind of stuff as I come across it…
Cascade Alpine Guide
Beckey’s Bible.
A staple of probably most PNW climbing bookshelves or dashboards in one form or another since the late 40′s. Fred’s still out there, writing and climbing and doing his thing, and thanks to his exhaustive work on the Cascades, so are a lot of folks. Malcolm Bates did a nice little personal article about the guide in Volume 5 of the Northwest Mountaineering Journal.
WATCH: Run to the Desert
Woke up this morning in a post-Nyquil stupor, but this snapped me right back to… Well, I was going to say reality, but this is hardly my reality these days. It did make me smile though, which I’ll definitely take on a Monday morning. Gotta get out to Hood this week.
