Are there any DLFA members (core or affiliates), who still live the clubbers life, living in the Front Range area?

The ones I know- John Baldwin, Steve Sangdahl, and Dave Salisbury- have pretty much switched to flavored waters. But they are still fundamentally jacked!

"Flavored Waters"...so thats what Budweiser is! WASTE mission i am so jacked i recently brought bottles of"JACK DANIELS" up the NOSE on EL Cap during my recent one day ascent of Nose in a day...we then gave the whiskey to a huge ass bear on top at 2 in the morning!!! its all true. peace and fuk-nes. steve the drug machine X-dlfa

It's true, Steve is so jacked that he named his son Jack!

Jackness now,
Jackness forever,
Jackness for the revolution!

Its true,I am so jacked i let "MY WIFE" name my kid Jack.How about Ness for the middle name...no way she said.I gotta admit that would be a pretty hard name to live up to. I seem to remember that THOM E. was so jacked he earned honerary DLFA membership!
I bet our recent ascent of the Nose in a day (NIAD)was the first time it had been done in a day with bottles of WHISKEY as a "key" item in the climbers backpacks.If that isnt in the finest of DLFA traditions,I am out of the club!We gave some to the huge ass bear on top cause we felt sorry for him and clubbers like to see animals get jacked, among other things.

So how did you get the bear to consume the fuk-nes? And how much did he drink? It would take a lot to get a big bear jacked!

Russ "The Fish"! How the hell are you? We did actually get to go climbing- we did the West Face of El Cap in 12 hours car to car and I think you were there when we walked in to the Degnan's Lieback at 5 p.m. for chili dogs and beer.
But after Guokas died I didn't go back to the Valley for probably a decade. Then when I finally did go back I see this guy at Degnan's pouring a Lowenbrau dark into a plastic Pepsi cup and quickly disposing of the bottle and I'm thinking "This guy must be on rescue..." Slowly we recognize each other... it's Walt Shipley...maybe it's the Third Day....

the bear wanted it ,we could tell,among other things...we just left the plastic bottle of whiskey at the tree on top and left him to it.i'm sure he could open it.if he got jacked i do not know....its the thought that counts!
keith "NED" guy.......he is still alive..i thought his liver would have given up on him by now russ,does he still get "JACKED"?

Steve Sangdahl · · eldo sprngs, co · Joined Mar 2002 · Points: 735

That is Jacked.Last time i saw keith in 2000 we got sooo jacked I puked. How the hell did Bill russell buy a lot in Yosemite west and are there not rules or homeowners association covenents against such types from buying lots there...oh,they let Keith Guy buy a lot.

Steve, was that the last time you puked? Remember, drinking to puke is a hallmark of Jackness, just as much as pulling down.

Well, perhaps. But really it was just an niche from "walking the fine line of fuknes" that just HAD to be filled. I'd like to think that I had a small part in pushing that frontier a little bit further, myself. Not to brag or anything. All I see now days though are sport pukers, nothing even close to being a real, true, Donkey Defender.

yep.. Engelstout is an honorary member, I believe pending the approval of the Security Council ( though most of them are either dead, decrepid, or deseased )

Good to hear Guy's still hammering. Hard to believe Russell bought land... he must have taken some pole dancing lessons.

Drinking to puke and climbing go hand in hand for the DLFA. walking the fine line of fuk-nes. I once saw Bill Russell puke 4 times in two days during the ten days of fuk-nes. I don't think he did much climbing. Same ten days we had to take Rob Lemon's keys away from him.

Just like the last time!

Shouldn't Engel-ale's card just have "grunt" on it, and not even list his name? And that Clean Dan card! Wow. It brings back memories of what my grand pappy used to say to me. I can hear him now, as if it was yesterday tell to me... "Shloshbury, it's much better to be a liver, than to have one." So here's a *Club Salute* to Grandusky! Ahhh... yes... I feel better now.

And Mr. Hansen, stop by for a couple of pitches, and martinis, sometime. Doesn't have to be in that order. Or maybe combine it to just pitchers of martinis, sometime.

A couple of pitches of martinis is always just what the dr. ordered.
I prefer vodka, but gin will suffice. Getting jacked is always the first step towards cosmic purity.

What is DLFA? I thought I new all the cool clubs. Can I be jacked also, or is asking to be jacked a sure reason to be shunned by other jackers. What is jacked. I live in a trailer with tons of booze......Is this a good start?

Steve Sangdahl · · eldo sprngs, co · Joined Mar 2002 · Points: 735

Hank, A trailer full of booze is definitely a great start,escpecially since its right across the creek from my house.You are so "jacked" you should probably be in the Fuk-nes club. You must drink a alcholic beverage of yer choice while hanging upside down from yer toes, preferably over something hard like concrete.
Jack-ness is anything that gets you fucked up, so is fuk-nes. The DLFA is the Devils Lake Fuk-nes Association. Most of us are now retired because we are so lite. Drink to puke.

Thom Engelbach · · Unknown Hometown · Joined Jan 2003 · Points: 15

Hank, if there is a Club, you would definitely qualify for membership. You are about as jacked as a cross-eyed salamander, from what I have seen.

Does anybody know if the DLFA still exists?

Of course. The DLFA will live forever as long as jackness/fuk-ness reigns supreme in the hearts and minds of men.

Hoop hoop!

How bout getting jacked to full-on fuk-nes in 11-Mile Canyon while singin "all my ex'es live in texas" (repeatedly -- as to combat weekend warrior off-road wannabes)?

Would that qualify, or is it just DL-only to get to FA status?? (what if I added firearms discharges to the fuk-nes, would that be a decider??)
