High Pointers in the PlainsView MessagesViewing posts 1 to 14 of 14 messages posted.
Struggling to the heights....... 12:16:34 AM 2/07/02 “Check out the shot. What a slope they traversed!! DUNADAN!! I MUST do this trek this summer!! Can you go with and provide outfitters? Any Sherpas available, or have they all been booked already??” 12:23:02 AM 2/07/02 “Thanks for that Lizs,.. that sure was funny!” 2:01:03 AM 2/07/02 “You guys really need to read this stuff!! It's FUNNY AS HELL!!!” 9:53:43 PM 2/07/02 “I almost woke up my wife I was laughing so hard!!! Look out CREVASSE!!!” 10:00:47 PM 2/07/02 “My wife has a pair of High Pointers J (^)(^)” 10:03:16 PM 2/07/02 “That was funny....:)” 10:07:37 PM 2/07/02 Beware!!! “Thankyou for that, Lizzy! Where did you find that site? That was so funny, I am sending the website address to all of my friends. I would be willing to outfit an expidition, but it could only comprise the most hearty and intrepid of brave souls. My parents have bagged this peak, and now I hear the heights calling to me.” 9:29:30 AM 2/08/02 A MUST READ! “For anyone daring to attempt a trip to the hinterlands of Kansas, don't forget to get plenty of topo maps,first.” 9:58:33 AM 2/08/02 “Thanks lizs, this link made my morning. I've passed it on to our geography instructor.” 10:32:47 AM 2/08/02 “Let's get this on top for all you Friday Frolickers. THIS IS FUNNY AS HELL!! **warning** READ ONLY IF YOU CAN DARE LAUGH OUT LOUD!” 12:49:04 PM 2/08/02 Lizs is not kidding... “...this is laugh out loud stuff, as my neighboring cubicles could hear. Rad and others ought to like the "medical experiment" conducted on the Nebraska peak.” 3:38:47 PM 2/08/02 “I especially liked the way they acclimatized themselves by staying in the basement.” 5:04:15 PM 2/08/02 “I was within probably 5 miles of Mount Sunflower, but SAD TO SAY, GAVE UP THE TREK. The thick air became too much for my lungs!! Ditto the high point in Nebraska. I made it as far as Pine Bluff, which straddles the Wyoming/Nebraska land. But I was scared of a "brown-out!!!" I have no appropriate glasses to deal with a brown-out!! I've heard they're very expensive. And... the always oppressive, horrifyingly thick air. Say, I THINK GROUND SUCK MIGHT JUST COME INTO PLAY HERE, TOO!!! The peaks are surely trying to all but the most fit and enterprising climbers!!” 5:37:14 PM 2/08/02
