CHECK OUT THESE "DOPE" SHIRTS FOR AUCTION
Dope Miller Equipment, purveyors of trick haul bags, chalk, Moses Ent. big wall equip., shirts and rental big wall packages has agreed to contribute to the TG Fund effort. They have a selection of cool on topic shirts which they have offered to auction for the Fund. Check them out and make an offer.
We will have 5 each in any size of the El Cap and the Midnight Lightning models for a total of 10 shirts.
Yes they actually rent complete big wall equipment packages. That means you can fly from anywhere in the world with a reasonable luggage load, rent the package and send. You will have to deal with the "snail eye" on your own.
I forgot to say how reasonably priced this is. Dude, there is even a waste disposal system included. Very green.
A big thanks to Jeff Vargen for hooking this up.
You can e-mail me, DE, at devansbike@earthlink.net with bids or questions.

Just in case you don't know about the TG Fund.....
GORDON FAMILY FUNDRAISER –Joshua Tree, CA
BIG PARTY AT THE GORDON RANCH APRIL 21, 2012
Once again, we are trying to raise some money to fix the roof at THE RANCH, have a memorable party, replace their dead mini-van and more.
EVERYONE IS INVITED! Including Stonemasters, Uplanders, wanna-bes, Sheep Buggerers, those mysterious folk from San Diego, RADs, BGR, Banditos, Valley boys, Euros, Asians, Latinos, American Alpine Clubbers, Mazamas, Vulgarians, Buff Alpine clubbers, Sierra Clubbers, boulderers and even Canadians and Newfoundlanders, not to mention people from Florida. This means you!
In the continuing philanthropic tradition we will be having a giant party at The Gordon residence at 9561 Starr Ln., Joshua Tree, CA on April 21, 2012. This year the main goal will be to do major repairs on the roof of the house at The Gordon Ranch. The brutal Joshua Tree weather and the many visitors have taken a toll on the house. They have one messed up roof with multiple leaks. The roofing crew of motivated locals is already set. We just need money for roofing materials, the party and a new/used mini-van as their old one died just before Christmas.
Most of us know Todd Gordon, AKA "The Mayor of Josh," as one of the most giving humans in the So. Cal. climbing community for the last 30 or so years. Chances are you have stayed at one of Todd's houses more than once while visiting Joshua Tree for it's world famous climbing....or you've climbed one of Todd's many, many classic and not so classic routes.... or maybe he even taught you to climb. I myself have been his guest more times than I can remember. We've showered, pooped, watched TV, camped, used the kitchen etc. there while visiting Todd, his family and our beloved Monument (JTNP).
This party is going to have a rocking band called "Warsaw."
We are also honored to have world traveler Tony Yeary giving a slideshow with digital images from the Cordillera Blanca of Peru to our own awesome Range of Light, the Sierra Nevada.
We are also going to have a silent auction and raffle for some great climbing gear, guide books, collectables, memorabilia and more. Susan Peplow will be in charge of the silent auction and raffle. We will need a couple of volunteers to help with the raffle and auction. To donate or help you may contact her at susanpeplow@hotmail.com and 602-725-3249.
Lynne Leichtfuss has graciously offered to coordinate the food effort, and yes it is a big effort. Last year she and her posse did an incredible job.
She will need several volunteers to help her and will be accepting donations to help pay for the food. You can contact her at 760-749-8774 to help in any way.
SPONSORS INCLUDE- The American Alpine Club and Supertopo.
READ THIS PART! We are looking for cash and material donations. Cash in any amount is good. Material donations should be things that can be sold for cash. I will have a continuing sale/auction as this thread develops.
Please feel free to call or e-mail me regarding any questions you may have about this must attend event.
Cash donations can be Paypaled to me using my e-mail address which is:
devansbike@earthlink.net

Hey !!!!
That lightning bolt graphic on the T shirt is patented by the Stonemasters when they first drew it under Midnight Lightning.
Yabo is holding the rights.
Stealing from Stone Masters will cause Karmic reaction.
You will fail to "send" on your project.
Three hail Marys to Yabo will release one from this terrible oversight ......

We were enhancing our PeeChee folders with the bolt in the late 60s... we got it from some surf band out of Huntington Beach. I think those guys went on to make surf boards :-)

Yeah, I just spent a few days se of the Whites, awesome!
White itself is super cool. It's the only 14'er you can bike legally!
Boundary and Montgomery are a sweet dayhike from the east. Good obsidian chipping areas on the hike.
