The Wrinkle is an instinct I followed on a deer path from the second lake. It is a bizzare triangle that some how separated itself from the west side of the Logan Creek valley. It forms 2 valleys one of which actually flows up the LC valley. It formed the only way I could see to get to the inpenetrable LC valley. You may find it on a close up topo but neither the lakes nor the Wrinkle show up on the Green Trails. Pictures will follow, but you can see the ridge from a distance in Nelsons#1 pg 125 . It is the ridge on the left(Endless Ridge that is)

So ends my fascination this year with remote Mt Logan. This time I found our own little version of the Hummingbird Ridge: The Endless NW Ridge. The topo map doesnt lie on this one, It is over a mile long. It has almost 3000 feet verticle and is very serious and committing. Just getting there took more than was bargained. After leaving the trail at Junction Camp, there is great toil bushwacking through to the second lake, then one may be lucky to find the "Wrinkle In Time" to reach the fantastic Logan Creek Valley. Good Bivy amongst bear scat. The climb itself is endless exposed and commiting . Involving much 4th class and 5 rapplels to clear its abundant gendarmes. It gets harder as it goes too. Grade V-5.8

Marko , if you are going to continue to climb naked, it would only be fair to let us know in advance! We need fair warning.

Palisade traverse IV- 5.9. though not the pickets, the closest thing to with bagging 5 , 14.00' peaks galore along the way. . Many other thing too numerous to spray about.

Like something is bad about eating the neigbors pets?i WOULD PAY TO SLEEP AT NIGHTS FROM THAT LITTLE YAPPERS NIGHT RANTS! Looking at the Lynx Page it seems there would need to be a good population of snow hares to support a lynx population. Those things would thrive in Marblemount or Glendoveer Golf of course.
-
Wow nice wife! Where do you find these?

Lynx eat

I dont know the $ details yet. If it were up to me it would be free, but I am sure at least the dinner will be an expense but not exorborant. It is actually an AAC banquet with a meeting type thing but they are always pretty informal and its open to everybody . I hear they are presenting a new award then too. It is interesting that they named it after Fred himself . It could be a neat thing to see who wins it after me. I will be posting more $ details etc as I know them. It would be cool to use it as a fund raiser for a good cause too, I have invited Erden to go and raise dough for his next off the chart adventure. This has good time written all over it.... Timmay if nothing else my best friend has lots of room including a hot tub. He will agree to it Im sure since I built his place, Right Lane?

Other options: Post your proposed route for 1 week and if nobody bitches :free pass. Just bolt responsibly, not just to pad your own ego. How many times do you need your name in the book anyways? Freakin out, there are so many more routes outthere than any of us could climb!

incomprehensible. wtf is 'the same nature'? how come statement 1 is contradicted by statement 4? Dont you think it is possible to have a hero that you dont place above yourself? The nature comment meant skin and bones
