"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Re: FinallyWould you be interested in doing it from Forest Canyon Overlook? I'm interested in a nasty bushwack up into Hayden Gorge, looks like a pretty nice place.

3rd class ridgeI wish that I'd checked out this page earlier. I tried to climb the third class South Ridge today, and turned around when it got to be fifth class with extreme exposure. Thanks for reassuring me that I wasn't totally missing the obvious. The North East ridge route looked really nice, though if I'd had a rope and belay.
There was a ledge that descended along the west side of the summit cliffs that I didn't follow, though. It looked scary and like it probably pinched out. Has anyone seen if this is could work?
