Stellar work as usual, When the Extreme Ski Journal out?

I recall going up from the saddle on the usual choss. I dont remember it being all that bad

Just follow the railroad spikes E, They stick out a foot , There was one sitting in the cave so I drove it in the start.

No oak at all, but a new forest is there that wasnt there on the old summit photo I have seen Don, Proud effort on your part for sure, You might ask Dave Jensen. His was the first party in the new register, Jeff Thomas of the Mazama archive knew nothing of a record brought to the clubhouse . One of those mysteries, I guess. I dont believe it has seen another ascent, but maybe there is someone on this board ready to sack up?. Its not that bad just bring lots of bugaboos. Ed Cooper of all people emailed me a couple of years ago asking me for beta.

When I got to the top of the 96' band the webbing was sitting on the ledge with the rap ring through it still. Completely rotted off, Also an entire layer of rock had worn off, because I saw no pin scars the entire way.I place only pins the whole way except for a tcu near the top. Also afriend of mine knew the guys that died. They were back cleaning pins on lead and one popped and they both went. Also Dan, the Davis ramp is on the Black Spider, Hood

Pacific Inn tonight.

A contestant and judge? We have a winner!

Ok there must have been another summit register that was pulled off after his ascent.There is a big blank between 194 and 1958, When did he do it? Here is what I pieced together from the Dodge guide 1940 Orig. ascent party of 5 1958 NE Face party of 2 1965 Var. of orig rt party of 3 Then the register had the following: Nov 12 62 Party of (claiming the 2nd ascent of NE face) Bob Martin, Eugene Dod, Dave Jensen, and Kim Smitz Sept 7 1963 (3rd Ascent NE Face) Dean Caldwell, Bryan Babcock Nov 30 63 S rt Gerald Bjorkman ,Ted Davis, Kim Smitz Jan 4 64 (must have been a mild winter?)Alan abixas Jim Berge, Kim Hink. Mar 4 64 Ted Davis Dave Chattin,, 8-9-64 Ted Davis, Allen Smith,Bill Cummins The Day after the N face of Crown Point 8-29-65 Bill Cummins, Ted Davis Dick Scheideman 5-6-67 Mazama Adv School: Bill Cummins,Larry Sandstrom, Art Revel,Thomas Plaaman, Jim Nieland, Scott Arighi, Robin Baker 9-28-68 Glen and Don Kirkpatrick 9-16-72 Dean Fry, Paul Fry 6-17-77 Dave Zimmerman, Will Tuttle, Ted Mayfield 6-19-94 WW solo There was some interesting banter in there especially when Ted Davis was involved. He must have been quite the character. He is known to have done the 1st ascent of the Black Spider, I suspect it was up the rt I call the Davis Ramp though I cant be sure. It is the only way up it I would solo comfortably. He is rumored to have left for Canada when his draft card came up. Let me know if I can be of further help, Wayne

I have the info, I copied the register by hand and turned it over to the mazama historical. I can dig it out,

Go Dan! It can be done solo too.

Also is it possible that it is mislabeled on the Quad map. It appears the pass south of it is lower.?

I am hopin some kind soul has pics of Picket pass to maybe Frenzlespitz?

No Worries Mates! I heard there was a section on I-rock , true? Any other differences?

Anyone have a copy yet?

...a cast

Looking to do both Hozos via the normal rts sat,sunday.

Spray isnt dead, it just broke its leg. They will eventually wheel the gurney next to the warm glow of the MONITOR!AND YOU WILL FEELS TEH PALE WRATH OF ITS FURY!

Ooo Ooo Pick me!

Soloed 3 pitches of the Zode, left my gear up there for a week till I found a partner,

I remmember being very stoke soloing the prow at age 19. Zodiac was sweet too that year

I did a tib-fib-spiral once, its not worth it. Get out of it while you can. At least the summers over, Dang

They're back! . Wish I could afford to see them:sad face:

Well, Though the style is less than ideal, the Russians again proved they are tough and indomitable. Capable of getting up the hardest projects this planet has to offer. Truly inspireing. Just like exit 38 .

Nice work, I do miss the Olys

Seems like cons are stubborn, and libs more flexible.
