A guide once told me 95% of his clients no matter the experience level take pictures. He felt this group goes out to prove something to others. The last 5% doesn't take pictures. They go for the experience. I felt cool and all since I was in the latter group. Too bad I didn't get more pictures though!

I normally forget my camera but I rarely ever take pictures of myself. I like pictures of nature. I do have a mom and she likes pictures of me so once in a while I will get one of myself. But I do want pictures because it helps me remember what the mountain was like, you can only climb in so many places before you start to forget and 1 picture of a route helps to bring it back.

Great; can't wait to deal with that noise.

The real horror is just around the corner, folks. Think about this: there are 20 reality shows being filmed in Alaska. 20! It's only a matter of time before they drain Alaska of all her reality by filming every second of every tedious, humdrum, boring day of every Alaskan and the vampires will be famishing for more. The last drop of tepid real life drama left on the planet, after the crab fishing, tree felling, gender-changing, and midwifery is clearly whether that little nut you placed 15ft below is gonna hold after your elvis legs give out.

New, on the Discovery channel: DIRT BAGS!

After repeating that fall a dozen times, the rest will be filler. Things like making ramen noodles stretch an extra day, sneaking into hotel swimming pools to use their showers, and furious car camping/masturbation.

You know it's inevitable. God help us...

If they could replace the "WEEEEEE" sound with that music, I wouldn't be so anti
