Lumberzac chose wisely!!!!
for his pain and effort, he now receives a $35,000 all expenses paid trip-of-a-lifetime to climb Mt. McKinley in Alaska!

In addition, he has free use of 6 teams of Iditarod sled dogs, gourmet backpacking food (and personal Titanium Chef) for the entire trip, as well as 6 pairs of snowshoes, 2 dozen -100 degree sleeping bags, his own pack mule, brand new mountain climbing gear, a modeling contract with "Sports Illustrated".......

AND.................

the rules of this thread are no games. Hiking, hiking and more hiking. Keep the pics a coming. Bring on the stories of the days and nights spent out on the trail. Trolls be gone.

I'm at work, can't you see that I am working? I'm working really hard. Remember the George Constanza school of showing your boss that you work really hard? If you always look pissed off, your boss will think you work hard.

I want to go hiking.

when we're done with the Fall trip, we'll get to add a bunch more peaks to our list. Big Butt is just 4 feet shy of 6000. bummer
EarthNsky

maybe we can get a rock pile to push it over 6k.

man what happend? Where all the #&%!$s come from?

oh...sorry...did I post out loud?? never mind me...


so you think we will have problems getting to mitchell??
Gemini

I think we will be ok. Problems could arise for those who are planning the night hike up from Carolina Hemlocks. Mt. Mitchell is still reachable, you just have to come from the south on the Parkway.
EarthNsky

na, I don't think I will come at night then... I just have to work it out somehow. Could become an even bigger adventure then the first trip
