This season I noticed that the beautiful stone placed as a Memorial to a Fallen Climber had been knocked down over the winter. This is on the south side of Squire Creek Wall, in the area of the grassy saddle camp. The stone was pushed down to a lower shelf. In a few moments of our "rest" period, Yale and I dragged, rolled, and pushed it back up close to its original position.

So here is the position we moved it to. Next to the little bush, it's close to the original position. What a lovely piece of stone. Our thanks, again, go to the original crew who placed this memorial. Remembering Chris Greyell, an inspiration to all who knew him.

Nice, Otto.  In that first pic it reminds me of a bird with its beak pointing to the sky.  There are even marks on the stone for an eye and the suggestion of a folded wing.
