Jens Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Its funny how stories get passed around between climbers in the northwest. Campfires, long car rides, bivys, etc. Anybody hear any good ones lately? -------------------------- Secret limestone crags with pockets and bolts? Airplane wreckage debris booty? Mysterious caches (odd places)? How Twight was banned from Canada? Wolverine Sitings? Hermits living in cabins in the foothills? McCord or Fort Lewis stuff in the Cascades? Body parts sticking out the ice on the Nisqually? Finding a real big gold nugget on an approach? Ancient fixed pins in impossible places? Secret Hot springs? Magnetic Field anomolies? Mystery climbers establishing hardest routes under the radar? UFO's? All of the above have some shred of truth to them. Don't ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary_Yngve Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Secret limestone crags with pockets and bolts?  Granite near Renton, bigwall near B'ham  How Twight was banned from Canada?  I've heard Twight's explanation from his show, and I've heard a totally different version from another celebrated climber.

wfinley Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Wolverine Sitings? I heard it was a badger in the outhousae at the campground near Athabasca Glacier... some poor chap sat down on the can and it came ripping out. Always wondered if it was true or not but I've hesitated to ask! Regardless... Now I always carry my headlamp into the outhouse and peer inside before sitting down.

wayne Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Goodell Creek is a brutal and dangerous bush/cliff-whack. So is Access Creek. It is best to avoid them altogether. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
