    I've always thought Young Dubliners put on a great live show. Slightly Stoopid is also very good live (remind me a little of Sublime), and they're at the Gallivan Center August 4th.

    I guess it depends on whom you ask. I agree with Tom. I've also gone up and down the main fork, and for ME, I had an easier time going UP on my second trip than DOWN the first time I went. I tied my...

    I did the "Aron Ralston reality tour" back in 2003, after a canyoneering friend of mine (who has since moved to Alaska) read the book. We left Horseshoe Canyon campground around 7 a.m., biked the 17...

    I also did Moonshine recently- a couple easy down climbs with some good narrows. And dry. The downclimbs at the beginning of the main fork of Bluejohn were a little daunting for one of my friends on...
