Ok, you're right, Twin Peaks has tent only that on recreation.gov it says "Site numbers 175-208 are for ground tent use only. RV's, trailers, truck campers, and camper vans are not permitted in this...

When you say RVs aren't allowed, does that that mean RVs aren't allowed but you can still camp in your van or truck? That's what it says at Alamo Canyon Campground, which is a primitive "tent only"...

That's a walk in tent site. I am talking about a car camping spot that you can only camp in a tent right in front of your car. Most places do it like Rainier, which has a tent only walk in campground...

Is there a campground in the US that has spots that are specifically tent only? I have never seen it. Not walk in sites, but a site that is made for a car to park and and then camp right there, that...

Powdork's statement is correct. The only thing I will add, and bitch about, is at the state parks here in Washington they typically allow two vehicles at a camp spot. So you can have a full size...

Popular afternoon activities for the ski camps are climbing French's Dome and rafting the Deschutes near Maupin. Or just hanging in Govy and eating pie at Huckleberries.

Haven't used it yet myself, but campflare.com lets you enter your campground, dates you want to stay there, and then it runs bots and emails you when a space becomes available due to a cancellation....

Lots of campgrounds at mountain lakes around there (Trillium, Clear, Timothy, Frog). Trillium is the closest, but will be the most crowded. But everything will be crowded that weekend. If you are...

Just responding to TBS asking for info. And why are you pulling the Oregonian card? I grew up skiing (and biking) at Ski Bowl and am fourth generation Oregonian.

Would your opinion change if the paralyzed guy's profession requires manual labor? He was 37 at the time of the injury and may have lost his ability to make an income. $3.5 of that $10.5 goes to his...

Most of the time when you read about someone suing a ski area you read about the ski area's insurance company getting cold feet, not going to trial, and instead settling with the plaintiff. When this...

Skibowl decided it was a good idea to stick a 4 x 4 post with sign directly next to the bike trail. Guy crashed into it, paralyzed waist down. Ski Bowl paid him $10.5 million. I believe the sign in...

Cassette toilets are disgusting to empty but cost $100 versus $1,000 for a Nature's Head compost toilet. I like the ability to remove cassette when you don't think you'll need it. I have thought...

Since 2/11/22, this is the only thread I have posted in the Padded Room other than a few in the divorce thread where I provided a mag going through a divorce with the applicable statute so that he...

If you're going to make me a participant of this anti-popularity contest, you're going to listen to whatever the fuck I have to say. This will be the only Padded Room thread I post in from here on...

Oh, and I think Timberridge is the funniest maggot of all and I am deathly afraid of the ECRC and the East Coast in general.

I used to share skiing TRs on TGR. I moved back to Seattle area from SLC in 2005. I was blown away on how empty the Crystal sidecountry was compared to the Wasangeles I left. After several tours...

Most of my real life ski friends today are friends I met on internet forums back in 2005ish. Just not TGR. It was turns-all-year (more backcountry focused), nwhikers, cascadeclimbers, and...

No, I get that for half of you, this is your social scene. These are your real life friends. Not trying to shit on that. But there is another half that is only here to fuck around bored on the...

The underdog I am referring to is Benny. Benny took you guys on and it was entertaining. TGR always came off as full of itself to me. Too cool for school crowd. Lots of dick waving. Benny really has...

I'm still confused. You're saying Benny is actually not Benny but someone like Danno, or Hugh, or whoever, who has been posting for 20 years and 50,000 posts solely to fuck with us? And everything he...

I thought ötzi's description was spot on:



I don't understand why this bothers so many people? Is anyone a fan of US capitalism and politics lately? I'm a born and raised PNW sports fan, so I...

That's just Danno's alias that he hides behind to talk smack to me.

I'll defer to your expertise of Benny Ukraine posts. But what is, and what is not, pro-Putin? Any of the below could be labeled pro-Putin, and I am sure Putin's propaghanda machine is advancing...

I haven't read every Benny Ukraine post in detail. But I've read posts where Benny claimed Ukraine would be pulverized (which, thankfully, hasn't been true). But nearly expert I read at the beginning...

Benny seems to be proud of the fact that his father was common stock. Can we say definitively that having $200k to invest in 1981 proves Benny is lying about his modest upbringing? Benny would have...

If you really want to rehash how it went down:

I don't want to babble in this thread drift, but if you insist, it's your intense partisanship. One can intimidate without expressly calling for someone to be banned. Anyway, I take it back. You're...

Don't think of it is a right. The Terms of Use are just a contract. TGR wrote the contract and you agreed to it by posting here. TGR could have written the contract differently, but they chose not to.

I don't think you would get attorney fees. But I can get pro hac...

Seriously. This was the dumbest idea ever on TGR. Who could ever think something good would come of it.

If Benny drops a lawsuit on TGR, they will give a fuck. Benny just needs a Whyoming attorney to represent him. Core Shot?

You're right. But that's a technology problem, not Benny's problem. Like I said, the thread can remain if it is scrubbed of all of Benny's "content." Or we can just apologize to Benny and get him to...

I'm not saying what I think the rule SHOULD be. I am just saying what I think the Terms of Use says. It also appears Benny can force anyone who quoted his "content" to delete that "content" as well....

Terms of Use say this:

"This Site contains material, such as software, text, graphics, images, video, audio and other material (collectively referred to as the “Content”).The Content may be owned...

I noticed on TGR's Terms of Use it says this:

"Your Rights:

TGR does not claim any ownership rights in your Content. After posting your Content, you continue to retain ownership of your...

But ridiculing Benny makes us feel so much better about our own lives. After all, what brings social groups together better than a common enemy to hate?

Benny's just NYC to the core. As the great NYC poet Method Man once said:

"I'm still ghetto, I rhyme ghetto, my peoples ghetto
Pants are saggy, teeth yellow"

TGR is supposed to be for people who "get it." Neither Pelosi or her progeny get it, nor do any politicians or business leaders. Having a home by sugar bowl doesn't mean you get it. And if you're...

I don't want, or need, to rehash everything Benny has said. He has said some dumb shit that deserves a lot of what he gets. It's the persistence of the insults that would get under anyone's skin....
