No silly, it's to use after the climb to wipe off the persperation from climbing in the warm heat of February, and then to lay on inbetween climbs to soak up some rays and relax. I hope a big shark bites you in the ass next time you're surfing

My truck tends to spin more than it drifts... So i can't make it very far.

It says it is in "secrets of the notch" guidebook. You have a good chance of having that guidebook if you spend time in NH.

Yeah. I hardly ever say that food sucks, just like i rarely say that food is great. This stuff was on the lower end of the taste scale.
But, i didn't pick the particular restaurant. I wanted to go to the italian one. Woe is me.

Gas milege above 35 mpg... doable.
Everything has it's price.
Although i do believe that mini coopers get about 41 mpg.

I'd like to spend the summer in the valley like in the old days. I'm idealistic like that. Probably will be significantly harder than I'd like to admit, but hopefully I can find a way... IC won't be until oct.-ish. Yos > Squamish > Yos > Zion > IC Maybe Coloroado/RR in there somewhere. I need to do some more research on the best times of year...and just more research in general. the valley is really there only place I know a thing or two about outside the northeast.
Climb some High Sierra routes during the summer.
