Last Call, Register to Vote!

This is a last friendly reminder to register to vote if you haven't yet, and please encourage all of your friends and family to do the same. Deadlines for registration vary from state to state; some have passed but many haven't. You can find a full list of voter registration deadlines at HeadCount.

Interesting fact: In the 2004 presidential election, 10% of people who didn't vote, claimed that it was because they didn't know where to vote. If you have any questions about registration, voting locations, absentees ballots, etc., check out this YouTube video and Google Maps resource.

And, of course, remember to Vote the Environment. Our Patagonia.com page and Facebook page continue to offer great information to help you evaluate the environmental records of your candidates. See you at the polls.

This election has got my friends and I all in a panic. I can't wait to vote and be done with this.

Tell us what you really think...and stick a picture of Obamma in there. Come on -- be bold!

The issue reaches a lot deeper than the race for President. Vote the environment at the state and local levels and you're probably more likely to see the difference firsthand.

Please Do not ruin this great info site and contaminate alpinism with Polotical crap. No Government BS just alpinism. Obama or McCain. Please spair this pure area with that garbage.

Definitely understand your desire to keep politics out of climbing, Lance. I think we're all in agreement that the last thing we want to see is political banners at the base of our favorite routes, or on the sands in front of our favorite breaks. We also want to see those favorite spots remain wild, open, accessible . . . you get the idea. And that's what our Vote the Environment campaign (and this post)is all about.
climb on,
