nolanr Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 What gives? Don't they replace the summit registers when they get all filled up anymore? You know, with their nice official little dealies that list the peak and the elevation and all that jive. I've been on Wilman's, Prusik, and Del Campo recently and all there were was just random scraps of paper someone left in there. Or maybe the Mounties haven't summited anything this year. Just kidding, I have a buddy who is stuck leading Basic climbs so he can finish their Intermediate class, so I know they've been out and about. Anyone else notice a shortage of summit registers on peaks lately? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 I agree. I have noticed that in the last year a lot of registers from Cascade summits are disappearing. Â Pretty lame. It's fun to read em'. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klar Posted July 7, 2001 Share Posted July 7, 2001 The undying glory of a summit should not be hamstered by the inclusion of metal ROD filled with purple prose. The only worthy message I have seen was "I pissed in the tube" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted July 7, 2001 Share Posted July 7, 2001 Klar, It is not about the glory all the time as it is about history and traditions. If they are offensive or senseless to you then maybe you can understand the interesting way that others may look at them, such as I. -Cpt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanr Posted July 7, 2001 Author Share Posted July 7, 2001 Yeah, it's not like everybody has an ego fest when they sign the register. It's interesting to see what route they did, what the conditions were like, weather, etc. Plus just to hear about the enjoyment fellow climbers get out of climbing.
