    I made an amazing geologic discovery!

    in Climber's Board

    Due to the major fires that took place in southwestern Oregon in 2010 and that the Siskiyou is the only other NF outside of the little strip of Siuslaw that's more centrally located (less prone to fires) I would wager that's where this geological feature is located.

     

    Plus that part of Oregon is already known for neat geological features. There are few roads as well, thus the likelihood for a long bushwack approach.

     

    I'd bet it's near the Illinois River.

     

    I dont know. The teaser photo in the magazine looks to display some pretty rugged terrain. Does the Siskiyou hold that style of terrain? I'm not very familiar.

     

    Would love to spot this place via G Earth before the airing date.. Judging by the heavy foliage on the teaser photo I doubt that will be possible.

    Mt. Rainier Ski Dorm?

    I've always wondered. What is the ski dorm being used for up on Rainier? I tried to do some quick research and found that back in the day it was 50 cents to stay the night and that it can house 80 people... but that's all I could find.

     

    Cheers

    Have you ever tried using a BlackRapid camera strap? I use one all the time and find it the best solution. Has stoppers so you can position it back and around your side out of the way when not in use, then you unlock the stoppers when you want to slide it forward. Always stays on the strap and secured. (not a spokesmen)

    Great job on your successful climb by the way! Good stuff.
