Does @Scatman need to go?

[scatman]

@scatman ... if you had been wearing a tin foil hat I may have been persuaded to vote "yes" ... and an American flag kilt would have sealed the deal.

and despite your attempts to scare off potential hiking "partners", it isn't working. I'd hike with you any day.

@kwc - You found me out! You are always welcome to go on any trip that I am going on.

Just wait till you have to backpack with me!



I've only attempted the backcountry trail sign/handshake in the backcountry. I'm not sure the frontcountry is ready for it yet. It could put me in a tight spot.

I HAVE backpacked with you and daypacked with you and I enjoyed both immensely.

On the issues of tight spots, I hesitate to even bring this up but your mention of tights makes my deranged imagination start dreaming of scatTights. Dang imagination....

I'll also add that if you get the boot, I'm going to start a protest in downtown SLC. We'll all wear kilts and swimsuit tops, male and female alike, and well-worn cycling caps and do the BCP secret salute while chanting "Fremont Peak." (I know it makes no sense, but that's the Scatman way.)

And those who follow the FSM can wear colanders over their cycling caps.

And THERE is @LarryBoy's challenge. IF the Drumpf shows up in SLC again so we have to protest and if @scatman chooses to protest with us all and you and he and Larry wear kilts and swim suit tops I also will wear a kilt to meet the challenge. Forgot what Larry was going to do as a result though.

I voted no cause I want him to take me to Yellowstone......plus he had the stones to post that fluff.

Thought i was going to hike in a dress and high heels.

I did too but you wanted a challenge grant, or somesuch. And if you hiked in a dress and high heels AND a swimsuit top with @Rockskipper and @scatman I would be there with you in a kilt, brother. (and camera)

I wear tights all the time when I'm jogging or cycling and it's cold. Unless of course you mean some kind of special ScatTights.

SK, you are also welcome to join me on any planned trips into Yellowstone.

Just let me know where and when and I'll be there.

meh ... I'd be more impressed if those tights had lightning bolts running down the legs ... (still holding out for a tin foil hat photo - & would such a hat be appropriate for a Yellowstone backpacking trip? asking for a friend ...)

Yee Haw!!! Looks like it might be the Winds this year. Everyone is afraid of Griz. Somethin comes up though...

This has evolved into @scatman's very own "Single Member of Backcountrypost" thread. Well deserved.

Lightning bolts would imply quick like a flash. I am more sloth like in my approach. Perhaps a slow moving line of molasses would be a better fit for the tights.

Enjoy the Winds and don't tell the rest of your party that there are grizzlies there too.

I think you meant devolved!

no, it was climb Fremont Peak in a dress and high heels...

and IIRC, Scatman was going to accompany you in his swimsuit top and kilt. I'll go along to film it and Art and Ben will be our grizzly defense team...oh, wait, we won't be needing that, as any sane animal will run like h-e-double-hockeysticks upon first glance.
