Hi folks,

have you ever heard of “El Capitan”, “Matterhorn” or “Cerro Torre”? Ever seen
Sly in “Cliffhanger” or Robin Tunney in “Vertical Limit? You’re an adrenaline

(...) Thanks! This is now my new desktop background (The skier really was out of season, but I hadn't found anything good enough to replace it with). (18 years ago, 14-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I dislike websites that don't allow the 'back' button to return you to the previous website visited. Other than that--nice pics! Dave K (18 years ago, 14-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)
