What we have here is a neat photograph of young Mr. William Stanhope working on pulling the roof on The Daily Universe, a Tony Mclane Test piece on the Badge:

^ That's some classic SB ice by the way. The one left of Mosquito is called Alice on Ice cause it follows the rock route Alice. The Bughouse one doesn't have a name.

also, good god those Stubais, or are they super old Grivels? museum pieces anyways

I dunno who the genius was who said "let's make an ice axe where the shaft bend is towards the ice to reduce the clearance". Probably they even got a raise.

"the big slab of ice below the UWall"

This slab was climbed as the first two pitches of the FA of the UWall. As were the last four pitches of the Roman Chimneys.........

Tami, how did that red sling above your head get there? It seems too high for you to have placed it from your current position. (That's not a short joke!! :) :)) Was it there already?

My first "BIG" road trip was to Squamish....93-94??

My partner and I were not very experienced and had little gear. In fact my buddy had never done a multi-pitch!! Drove up from Tahoe and pulled into Murrin Park?? and set up a TR. Met a guy who felt bad that we had driven so far to TR!! haha

He had no gear but was willing to use what we had, which was very little, and take us up Deidre. Did the climb and went our ways. Did not see him again.

Curious if anyone know who he is?? I am on the left opening the bottle and he is on the right with glasses on. Super nice guy and good climber!!

Darren Melnychuk can be found on Facebook, at least.

A friend's photo of the Chief yesterday, which he put on FB. Showing our pet rock in a different perspective.

knucko, does this look like your Diedre partner 93/94?

If so, the Melnychuk ID could be the right one.


He and I are on the route just left of Diedre.

With the ponytail it could be Ray Mattis (sp?). He never really had any gear back then.

Can I come live with y'all. It's not going away.


Just kidding, I won't do it, so there's no need to go all anti-Yank. Not kidding about it not going away.
