Long Peak Messenger Needed

Nextel*.
In July I got 4 bars from the Chasm Lake bivy site and 4 bars on Broadway. (I called my wife to ask her to check the rapidly changing weather)

Edited*- I just remembered that I changed from Nextel to Sprint in September.

See, there's your problem right there. If leaving a clear plan and agreeing on a "call sar" time aren't good enough, then calling her, or having a messenger, isn't gonna be good enough either. I sympathize man, I really do, but I've been through this enough times to know how it plays out.

What route?
D7?

How about an update!

How did it go?

Do you still have your GF?

& did you receive a Spot for your next b-day present?

Well there was one minor victory. My girlfriend admitted that buying a Spot would be way overkill. I think "even I am not that necrotic" were her exact words. She was very flattered by my attempt to keep her informed during my proposed climb.

Otherwise the trip didn't make it past the parking lot this time. My partner got a phone call from his boss right as he was leaving his house. He had to back out for work reasons, but we've rescheduled for another go.

Now the question on my mind: Do I even bother to ask for a messenger again next time?

I actually did have one person contact me who was planning on climbing Kieners on Saturday. So it wasn't all just useless internet chatter ;-)

Well, it kind of goes without saying that she's not necrotic since it was already established that she's hot.

Good luck on the route!

Chris, well, that's a good thing. Nothing like a hot dead chick, though.

damn it! Stupid dyslexia got me again. How about neurotic instead of necrotic.

Once again this thread proves to be more useful then I ever could have imagined.

Whew..... I thought maybe she had been out in the cold too long. I once got necrotic flesh on the tip of my nose from frost bite, turned purple, no fun let me tell you.

Hey some guys are into the zombie/undead look. Hence the popularity of Kate Moss and the Olsen twins.
