markd Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 while this place is not a destination area(obviously), it's certainly worth a stop if your driving across kansas on 70. quite a few sandstone problems on aesthetic boulders.

Off_White Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 pie shop? Echo Lakes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
111 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 we've got a winner! It's called Flagpole Peak above echo lake and there is a nice 3rd class scramble on the left side of the wall. Know of any routes up the face? I've heard of people climbing it just dont know of any personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ols Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Looks like the crag facing northwest from the ridgecrest along the French Creek divide near Detroit. If it is there is at least one known route on it...mixed. We were heading in last Spring but the mosquitoezzz were as big as horses. Let us know later this Spring when you plan to revisit the place and we would like to join you on the adventure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Puget Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I climbed Flagpole Peak ~25 years ago. Can't remember much about it although Rick Sumner once proclaimed a route on it one of the top five face routes in CA. Just spent 3 days in the Columbia Gorge. No one seems to have "discovered" any of our secret crags. All are on the Washington side of the river. What a great place you can climb in the am, jump on the internet at lunch and head to Trout for some sledding action in the afternoon. Snow is melting fast.
