Mt. Whitney Portal Store & Hostel Forums General Mt. Whitney Portal Store Message Board Sierra or Sierra's?

Actually, it's from the Spanish word sierra which means "range of mountains," and is usually found in combination with other words, such as Sierra Blanca (White Range), Sierra Madre (Mother Range, or Central Range), and Nevada (Snowy Range). Occasionally las sierras is used to designate a group of mountain ranges or ridges. In the Spanish narratives of exploration una sierra nevada is frequently found written without capital initials, referring simply to a snow-covered range of mountains.

So for everyone who thought it was from the Bulgarian word

you were close, but it's actually Spanish.

We think this is bad!?

Try working with a man as stubborn as a mule for six years, who has run a buisness for the last twenty-seven years in the "Sierras". Who can't even get the name of the location of his own restraunt correct. Not only has he called it the "Portals" he now has his faithful employees calling it the Portals.... Last time I checked it, there was only one Por-Tal.

Quick, we must get back to the time portal! It is closing!

I will get to the delicious cake behind the wall using a portal, and then laz0rz to kill the hungry polar bear.

---- god, I hope there is a tear in the space- time continuum inside the walk-in-refrigerator!

I'm going to start calling you "Myle"
