This is a HOOT !!! Give it a look and a Listen. Turn on Your sound !!!
NY Times. Climbed with these fellows last May.The author, Stephan Reginold, is a Good Climber and TC the photographer picked it up real quick !! Knew that they were coming, to do a story and to "take some pictures up on the rock". Met them at 5 pm, as arranged, and only then did I learn that they needed to get to the Tower Top !!! We made it just as the sun set!!! Beautiful Day !!!There is also a written article, with Photos at Article.

That's pretty cool Frank.

Everyone who climbs deserves a trip to Devils Tower, the chance to meet Frank Sanders, climb with him and rest/party at his lodge. Go for it. http://www.devilstowerclimbing.com/

Oh great, the NY Times...and you thought DT was busy before! Now there'll be Paris Hilton look alikes on every route climbing with little Chihauhas in tow...

Birthday Jaybro? How can that be, there's no "Happy B-day Jaybro" thread? That's not right...Happy B-day!

No no Lugar, my B-day was more than half a year ago and was commented on over-adequately, on the Taco ( I think my 'sister' started the bonfire this time around). I just found it funny, to note that Colonel, a vet of actual, local celebrations, at the Ahwannhee no less, posted that, originally, on my last b-day.

Oh man, and that's why ladies and gentlemen you always should read the fine print or in this case, the date of the OP. Well now I feel silly..well, now I know why this thread only got 4 or 5 hits....EVERYBODY was posting to your BIRTHDAY thread that day Jaybro! LOL.
