I have a nice little video montage I put together last night from a couple weeks ago at Lost Eagle. I'll try to get it up here soon.

I'm thinking of bringing the wife and kids up to Lost Eagle this weekend, Fri thru sunday. We plan on camping for the weekend. I'm taking each kid on our annual "overnight backpack trip with Dad." I'll prolly try to get on something one afternoon.

Thanks for the picture Susu. Yeah we will try to get some days up there and do all the new stuff. Kev does your route go to the top? Did you just try calling me? Can you send me a topo of physics of death?

Mooch, Hmmmm... righhhht, you'd run circles around... well... for sure at least me! But, somehow I think you know that! [How long does the edit button last on these posts??? I keep adding changes til the last moment.]

I've not yet tried Intrepid. Have you? Any recommendations here?

Geesh... I've got to get back to work. ST is addicting.

mooch,

I haven't tried Intrepid Voyage yet. It's in the sun zone....
In a few weeks once it cools down.

Sean,

It links to the Art of Life. We are working on taking a line off of it to the top.

Ummm, the topo is in my head but I can draw you one when you arrive.

Yup that was me calling...

'Intrepid Voyage' was put up by me and Matt Schutz in '04. 3 pitch route, mixed gear and bolts. Checks in at .10a. 1st pitch is the crux. All the rest is cruiser 5.7/5.8. Matt had the sweet topo I gave him. Dunno if he's still got it. Kev, you find it (the topo) somewhere online? I think I posted it by description on rc.com and mountainproject.

Always underestimate an overachiever.....unless he's got a pair of "Cyndi" lopers. Eh Nate? The escalator.... er, trail out to LE proves it!

Be sure to bring also the "Crud Light" for pro between the narrow slots of the patina plates.

Can't beat those BOMBER Sapporo cans!

They would surely handle a wyde section!

Buttlight would crumple under my body weight!

Kev, if he stays on this Diet plan of low calorie/hops water will get all of those dicey A3 pitches this autumn!

Thanks Heffe'! And I stand corrected on the FA date (Aug. 05). The hand drawn topo is a bit better IMO.

Kev -

You'll have to torment crazy horse (Matt) for the damn thing. Wondering if he used it as a snot rag. Arrgggg.....I spent some time on that one. Should've burned a copy.

Isn't that roof part of "Storming the Castle"? Or is it still unclimbed...

Have a great many days out there Kev (and mucci?), but do leave a bit of untouched rock for the rest of us greedy & wayward souls, eh? :) Happy b-day too!

Here's a few minutes of Lost Eagle for your viewing pleasure.

Its a little herky jerky for some reason in the beginning. Pause it and let it load for a while so it doesn't have to buffer.

Something is kinda messed up with the compression, because on my Mac Book Pro its High Def and crystal sharp.

Enjoy.
