Wow, this is my first post! I lost interest long ago cuz
there wasn't much going on regarding the Olympics, but now
I see things have picked up!
Just wanted to note two things that I would think should get
into the next edition.
1) In the Mountaineer, vol 77, no 7, June 1983, page 83,
there is a short note that Pete Doorish and Reilly Moss
did a steep buttress just right of the Mountaineer Route
in September 1978. Grade III, 5.9.
Don't know how this missed the second edition, but there you are.
2) In tThe Mountaineer, 1983 -1990 published August 1991,
I wrote up a variation on Constance told to me by a Suquamish
climber whom I thnk you know. R Andrew, "Conquistadors of the
Useless" (I don't remember choosing that name....), pp 24 - 28,
the pertinent piece is that this Suquamish climber found a
ledge system across the upper west face of Constance that
avoids the Finger Traverse. Although not specifically named
in that article, this variation is now known (in some circles)
as the Leslie Indirect.
Don't hestitate to contact me with questions, great to see
some activity over there. Had I known earlier this year,
I would have tried to link up with y'all. Cheers!
