    My mom just had a bunch of pictures put on canvas. Stuff from her latest trip to the US.( Yosemite falls, Bryce Canyon, Zion etc) She takes real good pictures, but the company that does the canvas thing sure made them look even better. I'm gonna have a bunch made up for my office. I like...

    I'll try to opload this one in a better solution. You should be able to spot the climber ( moi) about 1/3 down from the top.

    Thanks Jer. But you were the true pioneer. It was your exploits in the Redwoods that inspired us to come over two years ago. As the great karate master Masutatsu Oyama said: Once someone has gone ahead and blazed a trail, it is easy for others to follow. And I still can't quite get my mind...

    I figured you'd enjoy that:) A slab of that would make a nice tabletop, don't you think. In fact one of my big regrets is that I didn't bring a 6x3 foot slab of burl home in -89 when my wife and i sent our stuff home in a container. Back then they were still reasonably priced if one bought...

    On my way south ( west, rather!) from Willie I managed to reach Crescent City before nightfall. That gave me a chance to finally sleep at the Curly Redwood lodge. I've passed it countless times, but always in the middle of the day. It is old, but lovely maintained, and to a woodworker, it is...

    They certainly weren't slacking at immigration. This country has gotten absolutely crazy to get into since 9/11. Denmark has a visa waiver policy with the US, means Danes can travel to the US without a visa, but have to pre-register with immigration before going, a hazzle and costs 14$ as...

    I really enjoyed that, Willie. I got to try some gear out that I hadn't tried before. Richard and I were going to get a GRCS anyway, but having actually tried yours instead of just watching the thing on video really convinced me how good it is. And those carbon geckos, wow! Fun to meet your...

    As most of you probably know, I spent a week climbing Sequoias with my two work buddies,Richard and Anders. When we got to the grove where we planned to stay and climb, it was impossible to get in there, because the forest service had closed the gates due to snow. So we went to another grove...
