jfs1978 Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 so...camped at the Turtle (9,200) for the Fuhrer Finger this past weekend. Woke up at 3am to the sound of my foodbag ripping down the Wilson outside my tent... "What the...?!?!?!" Hop out the tent...two yellow eyes lookin' (or smirking) back at my headlamp...my pack opened up...and my foodbag gone. I got some satisfaction out of the fact that it apparently had gotten away from the thief and was on it's way into a crevasse somewhere below. At least the little bastard didn't get my food either. We split the remaining food up and everything was fine...and we all came back more fashionably fit and trim. So...that was a first for me...couple thousand feet up the glacier I considered the food safe... my bad... So keep an eye out for critters y'all.

lazyalpinist Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Don't know who stole your food, but around 2am Friday morning we saw a cascade fox above 9000' near the Fuhrer Finger. Must be critters up there to keep him fed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
