Where do I find the secret untracked powder stashes that are in the Snoqualmie Pass area?

See, I heard that guy was so hung up on how good any potential dates were at math that there were no candidates who could meet his standards.
Oh wait, wrong forum.

First of all, I was being tongue-in-cheek over there.
Second, that wasn't the point. I was trying to secretly find a replacement so that I can retire. But you ruined it for me.

Where do I find cute backpacker/hiker girls my age (in their 20's)?

Well, I was at the mall yesterday (Southcenter-Westfield), and it may not be every guy's idea of hiking but there were plenty of ladies there. I could chart a trail of sorts on where to hike your hike there to yield the most promising results if there is interest. I recommend starting at Mervin's, since I am usually able to find a parking sport close to the door and no trail pass required. Also, if you are lost, you can buy a cell phone and call for help. The Rain Forest Cafe looks like a good place to camp, and there is a stream nearby, but also dangerous appearing reptiles.

Unfortunately I had applied to much DEET.

Tanja figures it's better for me to be in the mountains getting loaded than getting loaded at home!  But the result is the same: perhaps not exactly "support" for my hobby, but at least no resistance to it.

I saw one on Mt. Si once. She was Hot, Sizzlin'! I like the way their faces get sort of flushed and they breath hard.

I didn't read this whole thread, so this has probably already been suggested, but think about doing some kind of laid back personal ad to find women who like to hike and backpack. It seems like the only way couples meet anymore is through personals like in the Stranger, so I wouldn't worry about it being a weird thing to do. Even if you can't find someone quite as hard core as you, it still seems like it would be nice to have someone to do "regular" hikes and backpack trips with.
When I was single and in my 20s I usually hiked alone and would have loved hiking boyfriends but I never seemed to meet outdoorsy guys. When I hike now, I see solo and groups of young-ish women. So, they are out there.

So how many of you girls out there do real hikes (offtrail). I bet most of you do not (with the exception of a few). You can find plenty of women on easy trails such as wallace falls, barclay lake, lake serene, etc., but I bet that only a few hike offtrail as a rule. Repeat, I KNOW THERE ARE SOME EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE. I usually never see anybody when I go on offtrail hikes so I really cannot prove this rule to be true, but does anybody agree with this hypothesis.

How would one ever determine this? If you are off trail, you will rarely encounter anyone (if you did, you would be on trail). There could be multitudes of off-trails lady hikers, and we would never know.

I never see anyone but my traveling companions when I am hiking off the trail.
