Posted: Sat Mar 09, 2013 4:35 pmI've found that Google works. You can also wait until they spam SP... they're from all over and eventually one will hit the site for the area you're looking for.

Long time no hear. Hey, incidentally ran into one of your Vinson climbing team mates in the Santiago airport last December. She was pretty easy to spot waiting for her plane (a Brit wearing yellow Koflachs). Hah! Small world. What's next? The Big E? The "little" E? Or Carstensz Pyramid?

Time to resurrect the joke?
You're at a party. How do you know which guy/gal is the mountain guide?
Oh, don't worry. They'll let you know.

You're at a party. How do you know which guy/gal is the one who climbs without a mountain guide?
Oh, don't worry. They'll let you know.
