“spirit's first post & crazy mike going nuts waving his arms @ her.

youve got a dossier on all of us, dontcha? skeery”

“Wrong, Sarge. Before that she was Free23 and out of CA.

Muaaaahahahahaha.”

“as much as i hate to back-up he-who-shall-be-trolled, the spirit coyote handle predates the free23 handle. maybe theres a free22 handle somewhere”

“welcome jav, sorry I missed your arrival. but I see you were welcomed none the same :)
(trolls)

my advise is, try out your gear first. don't do what I did and run out and buy the first backpack. HUGE ( and I mean in size) mistake.
take your time. day hikes are the smart way to go, then one night will turn into two nights etc...

baby steps.

but then again, you could do what I did and throws the balls to the wall and go out on your own..boy did I learn alot :)”

“And, to cap off the trip down memory lane....this time last year we piled on to run off yet another newbie.





Now, who still thinks this place "went" down the tubes, lol.

SSDD.”

“it was a driveby post for sure. One post and never came back. He probably forgot he made the post.”

“TT is the equivalent to a greasy spoon. Either you like it and come back for more, or you give it one shot and think it's not worth it.

Jaysus, we must all have clogged arteries by now...”
