Don't remember if you were there, Tami
I do remember miraculously passing the sobriety test later that day
after we got pulled over leaving the valley. I guess that lady I clipped
called the cops...
good to hear about randy, etc.
BTW, bluebird cragging in Leavenworth today

"JCB,
You got it wrong about Jim Yoder. Jim lives in Eatonville with his wife Marlene and his elderly mother-in-law Molly, on a nice piece of land. They even have their own pond.
Jim and Marlene's favorite area to climb right now is in Hells Canyon, in the corner of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho "
JB, thanks for the correction. I had thought that he was living out by Hells Canyon. Good to know.

So what's this about Donini and McCarthy and Perry in L'worth in June? Gee, maybe I can talk the wife into taking the dogs for a little camping trip in the Icicle...
I will bring the good Dago Red. Real Dago Red. This is the stuff that goes with food. Good food...

Mr Lionheart himself, Don Leonard, on our abortive trip to Liberty Bell in January, 1973.
Don scoping Thin Red Line, questioning his motivation. What could we possibly have been thinking??
After almost a week in tents, we bailed to L-Worth. Ron Burgner in the only footwear he had with him on something at Peshastin Pinnacles
Kit Lewis at Midnight Rock around 1977
I wish this picture had turned out better. It captured the essence of Kit Lewis after a very bad night. I think he spent the night in a ditch near the Peshastin Pinnacles parking lot, 1975
Steve Swensen, whitey tightey, at Midnight Rock, 1977. Isn’t he the AAC president?
Anne Tarver, what a little doll, at Peshastin in ’77 or so, I think on Washboard
Re-exiting the womb on Orchard Rock, Peshastin, 1972

Did she look like this:
Or like this:
Anne got a PhD in philosophy and was teaching at a university in Kansas for a while. I saw her at the Woodland Park Washington climbers picnic last August. She had moved back to Seattle and was pounding nails again. She looked the same as she did 30+ years ago-cute and sassy....

Ha Ha. He won't be AAC president much longer when I post that picture at the gym where he climbs these days.

^^^^ HaHaHa! The story I have been pondering upon for a while
won't embellish his rep either; attempted manslaughter! With
good intentions, of course!

Hey great pictures Mastadon. I seem to remember going to Leavenworth with you on your maiden voyage along with Marc Emerson and Steve Ansell. I think you may have been drunk. Was just in Leavenworth today with Carlstad. A glorious day punctuated by some not so glorious climbing. More pictures please.

Hey Anders , I checked out your Sqaumish photos. Great stuff! I suppose I should rummage through my closet to see if I have any old Leavenworth or Squamish pics.

I first climbed around Leavenworth in 1968. I now live on Icicle road near Icicle canyon and still climb with Mike Heath and Gretchen Daiber as well as Rocky Johnson. 40+ years of climbing with those great friends. This is a great forum! (my first post on ST)

Welcome to the nuthouse!
Here's another shot of the 'talent', Mike Heath,
doing his thing on the Wausau shoot on Mt Baker.

Keep this thread alive...have some pics I can eventually process and post. Wish I'd carried a camera back then.
Would like to see a Wiegelt story or two, photos. And perhaps JIm Madson -another 60's legend that died on an El Cap rescue. Don't know what he looks like. Uh, I'm not morbid or any thing...Dave Davis still breathes? Geez, Hi Dave! (...well perhaps I AM morbid; heh,heh.)
Hey Dave, all that work on Witch Doctor Wall (Checkered Demon, V)...and no one includes it in their Guide Book. Dang! I have a couple nephews that might want to do it just for the familial thang. I don't even have a topo.
Oh well, remember the time when the Eight-Mile Cult pondered leaving the Icicle free of guidebooks and topos? The progeny would always have a first ascent thrill. Noble but a bit high-minded. Did that ever happen anywhere?
