Good Back Exercises With Dumbells/Barbells only?

Yo, I'm at this crappy gym that only has dumbells and barbells. I'm too used to nice gyms where they have pretty machines for back. (Anyways, I'm sure that good ole free weights are probably best anyways.)

SO can anyone please give me a list of exercises to do for back? And a short description of what each exercise is , since I may not recognize the terminology.

A link to a website with good dumbell exercises for back would be awesome too.

Thanks.

Much Appreciated.

My favorate is the bent-over row using a V bar.

Bent over rows
DB rows,
dead lifts

What are "good mornings"?

Thanks for the exercises...too bad I don't know EXACTLY how to do most of them...like what angle...I guess I'll run Google searches on them, but if anyone has a website with nice diagrams on it, please do share.

And keep the exercises coming. I really appreciate it!

dumbell press...

skull crushers w/o bar

Oh yeah don't forget good old fashion pull ups.

try t bar wide grip for spread close grip for inner back burns as hell

Here's a good reference for ya:
http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercises.htm

you should be proud that you work in a gym with no machines, machines are for girls, men use iron

this is what i would do if i was in your situation.
-wide grip chins(if there is a chin up bar)
-bentover barbell rows
-dumbell rows
-dumbell pullovers
-goodmornings

bent over dumbell rows can be killer if done correctly. As can widegrip chinups done to failure each set.
