I thought it was 1962 but the record shows 1963-so it was only 49 years ago and I can't celebrate until next summer. Powell with his photographic memory told me it was 1963 and I didn't believe him at first. It's the truth even if it never happened, it's the truth!
That time of year to get serious about CRS.

Bumptastic, I just re-read this entire thread. Definitely one of the all-time supertopo greats.

S-Goat -
Forgot to answer part of your question you posted after your trip in 2011.
No, Munge and I secured the prayer flags in place using the existing cairn rocks on the summit. Man, that orange film canister that had the "dust" of the last register was beat! Glad Bill Sherman gave us the heads up so we could place a nice weather proof Pelican box for the register. Should last many, many years to come. Unless, of course, lightning gets the best of it!

Right now, April 10, 2014, the weather is just right for CRS....
Just as it starts to heat up, the conditions are great.
H2O at the base, Rattlers are just thinking about moving and the grass is green.
To scared to stand or to SMOKE!!!! Still had to rap down.... a first for me.

Sort of late in the year...... IMHO
and to anybody going out there, a plea.
Please leave any OLD bolts in place, John Salathe's bolts are rare and way cool.
Place new ones if you must, but let US marvel at the old mank.

Its really dry up there this year. The Rattlers are bigger than I've ever seen them and they are more agressive too! I heard a Big Lion is patrolling the area looking for a Patagonia wrap with some white chicken meat inside! I'd plan to go somewhere else that's safer this summer, maybe a golf course! And...........Honnold is heading up there!!

Rachel McCollum did with William Leventhal the same day I did it with Guy. Leventhal and I both led the route free on-sight. That was an awesome day!
