How much of the burn areas include the swaths of beetle-dead trees you see up there? I seem to recall a lot of dead trees on the eastern side after you get past the pass. Probably not much, eh?

LOL just noticed the kid in the background with a Mariners shirt. Have you ever noticed that every B movie that features professional baseball...that is it ALWAYS the Mariners?

Exactly what I was trying to say. +1

Well as much as you're excited about your discovery, if it is truly amazing then it will stand out on its own merits. You don't need to have some dramatic "unveiling". Just post it up here...if it is that cool then people will come looking for you to talk about it. Or you could continue to bait and drag the line.

nice!

BTW, I think you should contact John Curley. He isn't dead, btw. He is a Northwest celebrity that could really help unveil your discovery with local flair.

I'm hardcore. Please PM me the coordinates. Can you at least post one picture? You can make it blurry so as to not give away any important information. I'm excited for this discovery!

Nice, thanks for posting. These reports are great because they can help people know what the current conditions are...not to mention just general stoke. Hope your elbow heals up soon.

I suppose, If you identify with the "climber". But what the rescue folks pull off? Pretty cool in my book.

same thought I had.

This is why we need to support these guys: [video:vimeo]99771689 Not a "climber", but you can see what they can do. Save your ass in a bad situation, for example.

congrats Mike!

The irony is if there is two in the Pink (who posted the pic), then where is that anatomically? The brown one is obviously in Pink's Stink.

Cool video Lowell! Thank you.

Also seeking 8000m buddies.

Looking to go to the top, not interested in the hike. PM me if you want to go in on a Snocat rental to the top. Does anyone know what kind of insurance we will need?

those are not bears.

They have a special place in their databases for a person like you Jason.

that rock looks stellar!

thats his follow up post. the one I quoted above is the meat you really want to read.

There is more discussion by WCC representatives over on Facebook too. Its too bad the discussion is taking place there instead of a forum like this, were you can view stuff without having to be a logged in Facebook user. Hopefully some of those people can comment here.
