Yeah, same here. I often disagreed with some of his opinions (and he could be a bit "forceful" in his offering of opinion...), however his observations on gear, trails, etc were useful and I thought, well thought out. Oh, well, there are many more thoughtful offerings here, and despite what is occasionally posted regarding "hassles", I think this is a very well behaved forum. Anyway, that's what I think.

Where is MtnGoat?

Agreed. One of my first posts, a TR of Dock Butte area, he saw and praised for the photos and opportunity to have a new place to go hiking. On the other hand, there were many negative posts from him.

Slug is simply one of those people who you either love or hate, or as a former boss used to say "I knew I would either be a hero or be looking for work".

Go placidly amid the noise and waste, and remember what comfort there may be in owning a piece thereof.

A recent siting indicates he is alive and well.

I, too, can confirm MtnGoat being alive, but I'm not willing to go so far as well. However, this could help explain Quark's absence: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/06/140606102043.htm

Yes, of course we all know that. We read Forschungszentrum Juelich on a regular basis. hmmm.gif

Hooray!!! Our Quark is unbound! party.gif (Of course, we're always especially happy to see the picture of you covered with the whipped cream!)

Are you saying.... that Quark and Slugman secretly got married and are now, even as we speak, on a hiking honeymoon in the Alps??? I think you are. --Gray

Sluggy's facebook page is actually pretty entertaining, if you happen to enjoy that sort of thing: Grammar Jedi (probably requires a FB login)
