First of all I want to thank Bob R for posting what is absolutely right on.I agree that if you have to even ask some of the questions asked re. the MR then you probably have no business going up it. ESPECIALLY in winter conditions where technical knowledge,experience,and equipment(assuming the knowledge of what to use, when, and where) are essential for survival.
Thanks Steve for reposting it.You know it won't be long before the stupid questions (stupid as in they don't know enough to ask the right questions or technical ability to understand the answer) start being asked repetitively).

Bee since you are so buff I may have you rope me up.Don't mind if I don't pull my own weight.
