Re: Vincent Gap to Pine and Wrightwood

If you are going up Pine Mtn from Prarie Fork, I would recommend walking straight up Pine Mtn Ridge from the Fish Fork Trail. That area is very easy to cross-country through, with a view of the peak almost the entire time. You could also hike up to Columbine spring and then up Pine. I would like to ...

Maybe if she was selling Korean BBQ instead of Burgers on the deck the government wouldn't have shut her down. Imagine the business!...on weekends too.

This is just another story of the modern United States practices crushing and destroying the American Dream. I hope she can make it.

Re: Triathlete dies in hiking accident in vancouver

Apparently "Pistol" Peter Holmes died after a slip off a mountain, helping a partner stuck in the ice, wearing snow shoes instead of crampons. No climbing gear.
Well, we all can learn from this. God bless him. He died doing what he loved.

Some of these pictures look like they are taken straight out of some middle east country. just bare mountains.
