11 QUCK GUDE FOR LOS A.AMOS MOUNTANEEF"S BOARD OF DRECTORS Foreword have tried to provide a summary of the major functions that each new BOD must address throughout the year. some of the items are required by our bylaws, others are only suggestions from a former member of the BoD for six years, serving all positions except treasurer. Good Luck. Earl Horley. Monthly BOD meetings. Should be held first week of each month. Secretary can then send out mailings by middle of second week for meeting on third Wednesday of month. Rotate meetings benveen BOD's homes. Vote on all spending maters. Plan out club trips. Call potential leaders at meetings if necessary. Have trips planned for all weekends for next three months. Three trips that go provide leader with a free membership the following year. Secretary should keep list to verify. January. Pres. and VP inventory cage to assess gear for climbing school. Present list of needed equipment at Feb. BOD meeting. t then can be ordered in time for school. Secretar r, in newsletter, start pleading for membership renewal. Warn that unpaid dues by end of March will result in being dropped as a member and no more newsletters. Then do it! No mailings to unpaid members after March. January BOD meetlng. BOD to discuss and vote on whether to sponsor a climbing competition in Oct. Then appoint chair to organize and obtain sponsors. February of even years. Winter Survival Course given jointly with Pajarito Ski Patrol. Winter clothing, gear, back country travel, use of ice axes, basics of snow and ice climbing, avalanche basics and travel, emergency back country transport, and an overnight exercise and constructing snow shelters. nstructors and leaders needed. Contact Earl Horley or [.A Ski Club/Ski Patrol. March, last weekend. Leaders wann-up. VP to set up. March. President, ask past climbing school director to return helping hand. Get new director inscribed on hand. April. Climbing School. Review course agenda with BOD in Feb. or March. Many past course agendas available to review. See Club notebooks. No club sponsored trips during this period to assure leader participation. Graduation last rveekend of April or first weekend of May. Traditional to have students bring lunch snacks for leaders on graduation. Recomm.cnd that all club gear be brought to each meeting or Saturday session and returnecl to cage i.mmediately afterward. Otherwise gear di.sappears. Another alternative is to require a stiff deposit for loaned gear during the course. This would include helmets, belay devices, etc. May. "Helping hand" given to climbing school director at general meeting. May. Top roping after work begins. Need to have a beginners top roping session every Wednesday. Need to have a leader or two. Joe Ortega has been doing this. Club ropes could be used to set top ropes up to Brazos climb date. 'hereafter, new climbers need to provicle their own. BOD, make sure all ropes and equipment are returned to cage. 10

12 May BOD meeting. Start planning for Brazos climb. June, third weekend. Brazos climb. mportant opportunity for new climbers ro go on a multi-pitch climb. An organizer needed and many leaders. Club topos exist for most routes. Summer. Beginner Leader School. BOD should consider a club sponsored course. Maybe held ever other year to start with. Contact Bob Stuewe, others, for developing or leading school. September. Appoint a nominating committee of three persons, incl. one chair, for next years Pres., VP (climbing school director), Secretary and Treas. October, first weekend. Climbing competition. A major undertaking. Probably needs to be evaluated by each new BOD for commitment (i.e.., go or no).

October general meeting. Announce candidates for next years BOD in newsletter and in general meeting. November general meeting. Elect new BOD. By tradition, Kenney, the oldest member, moves to railroad them in. Equipment swap at meeting. Past president remains a board member for continuity. New Pres. appoints program coordinator.

39 20 January 7979 Doug.l as Fraser County Attorney Los Alamos, NM Dear Mr. Fraser: As per our telephone conversation, am sending you a collection of materials on the proposed ìegislation dealing with limiting liability for private land-owners and others such as municipalities and the state from "rec'reational" users of the lands. As far as know, the bil'l is not yet in its final formn or close to it, so that any suggestions that you might have can be incorporated into the bilt as drafted a coup.le of years ago (and never submitted). As you can see, lve have some suggested changes as wel. l^le stongly f eel that, f rom our standpoi nt, the pri vate land-ovrners'section of the bitt is badly needed, believe that we might as well include the state and t,he municipalities in the same bill uliless the state and the municipal ities feel otherwise.

41 Post mortem on SB 4 February 8th. þ'ú)-r' The committee (Senate Judiciary) was clearly influenced by two of its members who had taken positions against this bíll. The other members either were si'lent or asked questíons just to show they were alive (such as "what is the element of risk i n bi rdwatchi ng" and "where are 'l a'l the J aw suí ts that have resul ted from not havi ng thi s aw? where is the neecl for this bíll?") with one exception who seemed to understand the bi'l wi th i ts i ntended consequences but who was more or ess i gnored. The main poínt made by the opposition, as see it, is that passage of this bill would create a mountain of problems whích doesn't exist now. t was imp'l ied that lawyers would have a hay day making up suits 6ffêfé6lþt because of new loopholes. ( just don't see that sínce, by implicatíon, what would become loopholes are areas in which suits can be filed with the same arguments now whereas the areas around the loopholes lfé/ê*éúþ become exemptt with thís bítl. The lone sensible senator kept asking "doesn't this bill keep many things the same and limit liabilities in other cases...and if so, isn't that an improvement?" and he's defi ni tely ri ght. ) The oppos-ítion said that if this bitl were Ou.r.9, liability coverage would go up because they'd have to spend so much time decidíng definitions as to "invited" and"recreational" and so forth. That seems wrong, too. Surely, it is more costly to be sued outright than someone havíng to decide whether there are ground for suit first and then possibly sueing. Furthermore, we can easily find out if liability premiums have gone up in states which have enacted these laws. They also said that there is no need for such a law since everything this bilt tried to accomplish already exists in common aw and other l aws. Unl ess the 'laws here are very di fferent from aws i n ndi ana, 0regon, Cal i forni a, lilass., Connecticut, etc., how come the other states felt a need to pass símilar laws and how come the state parks got closed down for rock c'l imbing in ndiana? To rephrase the loophole business, would say that it is bad to create loopholes F the area in question is nolv covered, so to s peak, and " hol es " are created. 0n the other hand, if the area is presently uncovered (such as landowners being subjected to suits) and loophol es are eft after most of the area become covered by law, 'd say that is an improvement, think most of those on the committee missed that po i nt or i gnored i t. 40

43 li Char'l i e Young (t-egislative 14 Feb 79 3 Q- Cou na F+ Serv i ce, ) had a very nice conversation with Charlie who drew up the ilt fated SB-41. Accordi ng to him, the basi c reason for the rough handl i ng of the bi - i n the senate Judi ci ary commi ttee was that tri al ìawyers do not like to have ANY lgsislation limiting li abilíty becãuse i t takes a,ay busi ness. ( commented that, i n that case, âñv bi t t that trrey oppose i s probably a good bi, and he basically agreed.) He is 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) sai d that the onìy way to get somethi ng 'l i ke that throuqh by a combi nati on of several thi ngs... io work with members of that committ.ee and work out each section to their sati sfaction...one bad thing about SB-41 was that the iudi ci ary commi ttee,as hi t with i t wí thout much warning ánd had to simply beat it down. Charl ie said that the bil'l 's main oþpónent Joe Mercer (Albuquerque) would be a demanding person to work with but jf we ever arrive at a bill satisfactory wíth hime, it would go through. a broader base of support... he thought that, as Al Í ce and/or John thought, the bi 1 was probaþlv gonsi dqred as a mi ddl e/upper ciass (i. e. ' Los Al amos ) bil'ì? 3nd that if we get;ùpport from all over the state (which would not be terëib'ly härd to do) including from somg Spanish named peopl e (.la anese don't count), i t woul d heì p. i'te offered'further he'l p, at least in answering questions' and Suggested rae get Some lawyers with outdoor interests on our ði e...he specifically sugeested Jim A1 ìey as an attorney with experience in dealing with the legislature and who is an avíd outdoors person. Another name he threw i n was John JasPer, al so i n Santa Fe. he thought that some minor ares of the bilt had to be cleared-up...one was the question of_how to handle kids and he sai a possíbílity was to exclude them. At any rate, he thought these changes were mi nor ancl that the mai n thi ng v,,ai t.o do po1 i ti cs rather than 1aorry about the bill itself so much. to summaríze his feeìing in another wôy, he said that the mai n thi ng that the bil ì ought!o accompl ish i:. tg make andowner-feel better about-havi ng peop'l e use thei r and, REGARDLESS OF hlhether TT ACTUALLY CHANGES ANYTHNG LEGALLY, and that b,e had to conví nce the 1 egi sì ators/tri al 1 awyers that passage of such a bi'l wi l l not take au,ay thei r bread and butter nor votes... ots of 1 obbyi ng. am willing to work on this for the next tíme. think the fact that ii will not be trivial makes it more worth whìle.!'r í,t; 42

A'l so, wê should have some lawyers in fa of this bíll do some backroom politics with those who oppgsed it this time. thínk'that thosç who opposed bitt were taken by surprise and HAD to oppose ít, weuld like to be kept informed on progress of in other states. will keep you posted on our as well.

45 Dear contacted you during or before the recent state legislature session with regard to a proposal to limit the liability of landowners who permit persons on their land for recreational purposes. The outcome of our efforts is that ure discovered that such a limitation is already a law in New Mexico. am enclosing the appropriate section of the laws pertaining to game and fish. t is almost exactly what we tried to pass in the 34th legislature, differíng only in two significant ways, rìêi ther bei ng serious from our standpoi nt. 0ne i s that the law applies only to private landowners and not to any governmental entities. The second is that the imitation applies only to those landowners who give permission for use of his land. Representative JÍm Caudel and his staff discovered the section i n question and we want to sincerely thank them for their efforts whích eliminated the need for any egi s ati ve action. l,le also want to thank you for your interest and encouragement. l,le woul d apprecí ate your publ ici zing this section of the law to whoever might benefft from it.

55 TOP ROPNG N WHTE ROCK CANYON THE EARLY YEARS l.lntroduction Len Margolin \Aøy Loù1 These are notes wrote in the early 1990s, just after returning from five years living in Livermore. For a dozen years, top roping was an integral part of my life; kept my climbing gear in the trunk of my car in the hope that someone would call and say, "Let's go climbing tonight." believe that top roping, in its present incarnation in Los Alamos, was a product of just a few people, who will talk about below. Not that we had a vision or anything so grand, we were just a some young people enjoying ourselves. am glad that new people continue to discover top roping on our cliffs. hope that the LA Mountaineers will continue to play an active role in preserving the cliffs and promoting safety among the climbers. 2.The Beginning came to Los Alamos in July, 't969. became friendly with Jim Porter, who was also new in town and George Foglesong, who had been a member of the Mountaineers for several years. George talked Jim and me into taking the climbing school in April of think it was love at first sight for both Jim and me. ln those early days, the only White Rock area was Portrillo Cliffs. A few years previously, Layton Kor, a highend rock climber from Boulder, and his girl friend Joy Heron, had come to Los Alamos, put up several climbs at Portrillo and rated them for us. The particular climbs remember were Heron's Fissure (5.7), upper Kor's crack (5.8) and lower Kor's crack (5.9). These ratings formed the basis of our local rating for many years. ln 1970, the best LA climbers could master upper Kors, but no one in town could get up lower Kors. That is, 5.8 was the standard. Other popular climbs at Portrillo included the Pillars of Hercules and the Lieback. remember that it was necessary to climb the Pillars before one was allowed on a club trip to the Brazos. There was another climbing school area used as part of the spring climbing school, what we called the Back Rocks, located behind North Community in Los Alamos. The rock there is rhyolite and not nearly as good as the basalt of White Rock Canyon. don't remember any particular climbs there, but there was an area called the cave where we practiced with Ludwig. Jim and graduated the school, did our first climb on the Sandia Shield and then the West Tower in the Brazos. We were hooked, and of course eager to get good enough to climb with the big boys on the harder routes. So we bought ourselves a rope (Plymouth goldline) and went out to Portrillo to practice. Now, one should understand that so far as the more experienced climbers were concerned, Portrillo was only for the spring time untilthe snow melted in the Brazos. So the better climbers -- Don Liska, George Bell, Bill Hendry, Carl Keller, Larry Campbell, Larry Dauelsberg -- weren't interested in coming out to help us.. So while climbing by ourselves was fun for a while, there were only limited number of climbs there and we were getting bored. As soon as had arrived at Los Alamos, started going out on weekends exploring the mesas and canyons east of town. During these explorations in my first fall (1969), found a rock canyon south of the main hill road near the White Rock Y. The original attraction was the pictographs on the rock walls and a large water fall that ran in the spring and in the summer when it rained. The rock walls were much too steep to scramble on. But in the summer of 1970, it occurred to me that maybe Jim and could fínd something to climb there. So one Saturday in July, took Jim and his wife Sharon on a picnic and reconnaíssance. Jim was very enthusiastic about trying to climb there, and so the next week, we returned with George Foglesong and a rope. The first climb we did at the Y was the Ramp and that was very easy. The next climb was bat shit cave. That was a little harder. Then Jim decided he wanted to try leading and he chose the Triple Overhang. Eventually, 54

56 he got up and managed to clean the pitch, but both of us were at our limits. Over the next few weeks, we returned and did many more of the familiar climbs. t is perhaps worthwhile to point out that our "practice climbing" was not at all an accepted activity by the Mountaineers. Because we started going out during the weekdays after work, we concentrated on top roping so as to squeeze more climbs in before dark. We were able to attract a few of the other new climbers, but this led to a new problem as there were never enough ropes to go around; we started borrowing the club ropes so we could set up more climbs. ln the fall of 1970, another young climber moved from Albuquerque to Los Alamos. Steve Schum was working as a carpenter, starting work early in the morning and able to meet me for toproping after work 3 or 4 times a week. Also, Steve had his own rope. Over September and October, we put up many of the standard climbs, including the Open Book, the Middle and Left Mothers, the Beastie, etc. found that lwas particular well suited to jam cracks and started tackling any crack could get a finger into. Then in the last days before daylight saving ended, Steve and went back to Portrillo and was able to climb Ko/s Lower Crack. The 5.9 barrier was broken. 3. Climbing Mania Begins ln the spring of 1971, convinced LAMC president Larry Campbell to have one session of the climbing school at the Y. As part of that session, Larry wanted to demonstrate aid climbing. Because we were still in the piton era, we were loath to have Larry nail any of our standard routes for fear of damaging the rock. So Larry chose the most difficult section of rock he could find. remember it had lots of loose rock, including a very large flake 213 up. Of course, Larry's assertion that the route was too hard to free climb was a direct challenge to Steve and me. Larry made the possibility of free climbing even more difficult by inadvertently knocking off several potential footholds. About that same time, a friend of Steve's moved to Santa Fe. Mike Roybal was burning up the rock in Albuquerque, where he was a student at UNM. Looking for new challenges, Mike rode his motorcycle to the Y and joined us throughout that spring and summer. ln particular, Steve, Mike and laid siege to Larry's aid route and after a month, we had conquered it and named it Wisconsin for the shape of its prominent flake. Steve and worked out a very strenuous route, including the one arm layback that became part of the standard route. Mike, on the other hand, did some seemingly impossible face moves, standing on nothing, and somehow got to the top in a completely elegant style. lndeed, this was to become a standard result, that Mike could always find a different, and apparently easier route to the top. We all tried to imitate his style, but nobody could. Mike Roybal was the most natural and most graceful climbing partner ever had. ln June oî 1971,1 discovered the lower cliffs at the Overlook. The cracks there were awesome compared to the Y, much longer and more continuous. Later that month, arranged for Mike to come up for the weekend, and we were joined by Steve and Polly Hessing. At fírst, we just walked along the base of the cliffs, each of us laying claim to some particular crack. lt became an amazing orgy of first ascents. We had planned to retreat to my apartment and party that evening, but instead we took our sleeping bags back to the Overlook, so as to get an earlier start on Sunday. My first climb at the Overlook as the left side of the open book that is downstream of the cactus wall. Mike chose the right side of the big roof. ln that first weekend, no climb was repeated and still we didn't get to the cliffs on the other (west) side. But that weekend started what became for me ayeil long fascination with the central crack of the big roof. lt would take a year to scratch that itch. But our successes on most of the other lines at the Overlook certainly stoked our confidence. At first, we kept the Overlook a secret among the four of us. But we weren't the only ones with a secret. About the same time, the Horak brothers, Lou and Karl, had discovered another set of cliffs off Kimberly Lane. remember sometime in the late summer, Lou told me he had something to show me. remember my first sight of the Playground; walked up and down the cliffs and then asked Lou which lines they had done. lt was not a surprise to hear that the Horaks had only put up one pitch. managed to find a second line that went, but failed on several other aftempts. My second trip to the Playground, worked out a pitch that called 55

57 the Telephone Booth, because of the tight chimney right at the ground level. Still, the successes at the Playground came slowly. After our ego boosting experience at the Overlook, we were cut down to size again. So by the end of 1971, we had four climbing areas. Also, our ranks had swelled, not with the more senior members of the club who still disdained top roping, but with newer climbers. remember observing that there was not much difference in the abilities of most of our regulars. When we started working on a new pitch, at first no one could do it. Then someone would figure ít out, and in no time nearly everyone could do it. This led me to conclude that knowing a climb was possible was the critical issue - that is, when you are climbing at your limits, the important issues are in your head. At the end of the 1971 season, worked out the Ring Jam at the Y. Although this is not the hardest climb have done, it is certainly one of the most satisfying and somehow it came to be the climb most identified with me. 4. Peaking For me, the top roping experience peaked in We opened up several new areas, accomplished what would be my most difficult pitches, and more generally we established top roping as a popular and enduring activity of the Mountaineers. ln the spring of 1972, Steve, Mike and decided to systematically walk the edge of White Rock Canyon. Our first discovery became the Old New Place. As it happened, we had not even gotten around to giving this area a real name and were still calling it the New Place when Mike and Steve found another area that became the New New Place. Both of these areas offered wonderful new challenges, but there were so many in a short time; can still see some of these pitches clearly in my mind, but now don't remember whether or what we named them. Sometime in the summer of 1972,1 went exploring with the Horak brothers, Lou and Karl. During a climbing session at the Overlook, noticed what appeared to be potential climbing cliffs across the river, on the south side of the Buckman crossing. Somehow, the Horaks fígured out how to drive to the top of those cliffs from the Santa Fe side. Borrowing their Dad's brand new Toyota Land Cruiser, we made our way through a maze of four wheel drive roads, eventually reaching Sagebrush Flats and the cliffs. (Recently, retraced that route on my mountain bike; some of the road was too rough to bike.) remember we did some great lines over there, but we never returned. Len's roof is the only climb that is named after me, so it is ironic that l've only been it up twice -- once Ín the fall of 1971 and then in the summer of The crack that splits the horizontal roof is a perfect width and has a bend that allows a foolproof and relatively effortless full hand jam; it was clear to me from the outset that could support my entire weight by jamming, letting my feet swing free. Also, the vertical section of the crack is finger width and, from below, looked like a relatively straightforward lieback. So the crux of the climb is transitioning from the horizontal to the vertical crack while negotiating the overhang. My first time up was an exploration. found that the hardest part of the climb was going to be getting my legs up into the lieback position. That first attempt, couldn't do it, my stomach muscles were too weak. But spent the winter doing situps, and on my second attempt next spring aced the climb. One aspect of that climb made a lasting impression on me. On my first attempt, spent a fair amount of time handing my entire weight on those good hand jams. The net result was a deep bruise on the back of my right hand. lt took most of the winter to heal. My second attempt, opened that wound, which then took most of the summer to heal and left a scar. The summer o11972 was also the period that worked on the Spiral Staircase. This is the closed crack in the section of the Y that named the gallery for the pictographs there; it is just upstream of the Ring Jam. lt is really a bouldering problem; the hardest moves are right off the ground and can be safely made unroped. Unlike the Big Roof, must have attempted this pitch a hundred times, making progress literally inches at a time. Many times, bicycled down from town after work and spent a pleasant hour working by myself until my forearms ached. The final move involved edging on a very thin line, releasing one of my hands and then standing up. had tried various combinations of relative hand positions and of which hand to release, but inevitably would barn door out as straightened. 56

58 Oddly, the solution to this final problem came to me as was sitting in my office at work; the trick was to change feet and hang my free leg behind me for counterbalance. The position felt unnatural, but worked well. Afterward, it occurred to me that the story of the Spiral Staircase was totally an intellectual exercise; would never have attempted such a pitch in the Brazos and likely would never have even recognized it as a potential line. Two events of the 1973 climbíng season stand out in my memory. First, there was an intense flurry of activity at a new climbing area -- the Cactus Garden. Jim Porter and had discovered this area severalyears earlier; it is near the end of the four wheel drive road in lower Water Canyon (that road is now closed to vehicles). We had climbed there several times, but the access was tedious and the climbs mostly overhanging and difficult. When we began to climb at the Overlook, lost track of this area. ln the spring of 1973, rediscovered the area while exploring trails leading to the river. Then, with several years of experience under my belt, was able to see that the Cactus Garden was a treasure trove of new climbs. However, the access was still too time consuming for the evening sessions; also, the lack of trees near the top made anchoring more difficult than most of our areas except for the Overlook. Over a two month period, returned to the Cactus Garden each weekend. lt seemed that each time, had to hustle different belay partners. One trip in particular was special, because was able to convince Don Liska and Larry Dauelsberg to come. Don and Larry were two of the more senior mountaineers who did not generally partake in top roping. have always considered Don as my mentor, the result of many early climbs in the Brazos and the Sandias, in Colorado and even more exotic places. Neither Don or Larry joined the top roping crowd subsequently, but Don and decided that we would look for new multipitch clímbing areas together. This led to exploratory LAMC trips to Cimarron Canyon, Lucero Peak (outside Taos), Questa, and El Rito, but that is another story. Of more relevance to top roping, Don reminded me of fâe pitch in Guaje Canyon. The Guaje Jam Crack is a long, overhanging, off width jam crack located at the narrows of Guaje Canyon. The crack was already a fadíng legend when started climbing in As recall, the climb had been done once, by Don in The overhanging nature of the crack meant that when you fell off of the climb, you swung out and could not regain the crack. The frustration of the sheer difficulty of the climb coupled with the need to restart the climb each time from the bottom discouraged club members and, to my knowledge, no one had even tried the climb in severalyears. Armed with directions from Don, biked upthe road toward the Guaje reservoir and found the crack. must say was very impressed and added it to the list of "must tries." Later in the summer of 1973, a climbing friend of mine, Ray Phillips, came to visit. Ray was a hill brat, but had gone off and become a climbing ranger at Yosemite. One Saturday afternoon, on the spur of the moment, we decided to give the Guaje Jam Crack a try. lt took us a while to figure out how to belay the climb. went first. The first thing! noticed was that the rock was very friable. That meant that the small surface structures outside the crack would be useless. The crack itself was an awkward width, too large and deep for hand jamming, but not wide enough to get anything more than a single arm into. Furthermore, ít was overhanging for all of its first 70 feet. guessed that the technique was essentially squirming, putting one arm and one foot into the crack, the other arm in a kind of reverse lieback above the head, and then inching up. also realized that once choose which arm went into the crack, it would not be possible to find a place to reverse. remember standing on the ground, facing up canyon and then down canyon, trying to decide which would better. Not a whole lot to choose, both felt tenuous. Finally, decided to face up canyon with my right arm in the crack. The first ten feet were going okay, but then realized there was going to be a rope management problem. Ray was keeping the rope tight, and it was pulling me out of the crack. The alternative was a loose rope, an unpleasant but necessary alternative. About thirty feet off the ground, the crack got even harder and progress came literally inches at a time. don't remember any details of the crack itsell but the memory of the skin scraped off my right shoulder and knee, and of the ache in my left forearm remain vivid. Finally, reached a spot where could rest my arms, somewhat precariously, and spent at least ten minutes resting before finishing the climb. When got to the top, couldn't unclench my fingers and Ray had to untie my knot for me. 57

59 While rested, Ray pumped me for the small hints could provide. Then it was Ray's turn. However, the crack proved too difficult for him and he couldn't get past the crux point. After several tries, each one requiring a totally fresh ground level start, Ray gave up and we went back to town to recooperate. remember Don Liska telling me that his ascent had tired him so completely that he couldn't raise his arms above his shoulders for days. Likewise, had never been so totally exhausted. heard that within the next few years, Mike Roybal and Paul Horak both mastered the Guaje Jam Crack, though wasn't there to watch. don't know how many others may have climbed it since. However, that climb was, for me, the peak of my top roping career. 5. Postscript ln 1974 and subsequent years, top roping continued to grow and continued to climb. However, after the 1973 season, a new generation of LA mountaineers began to take the lead in these activities and probably are a better source of information for archival purposes. For myself, other activities became more interesting. ln particular, volleyball and long distance running competed for my time, and the upper body muscles that result from heavy duty climbing were a detriment in these other activities. would like to close these notes by mentioning the names of some of the many other climbers who were part of the early top roping days, but have not yet been called out in this narrative. Some of these were experienced climbers who moved to Los Alamos and brought new perspectives and techniques to us. Many were home grown. apologize to those whose names will have omitted. Some of the homegrown climbers include Dennis Brandt, Bob Mitchell, George Rinker, Jan and Steve lverson, Chris Foster, Mark Hessing, and Karen Budding. Paul Horak, youngest brother of Lou and Karl, grew up to become one of the finest climbers we have produced. Hank Blackwell was a professional ballet dancer and experienced gymnast, and for a while became one of the most graceful climbers of our troupe. Some experienced climbers joined the ranks in the early days. Principal among these were Norbert Ensslin, who had grown up in the Gunks, and Merl Wheeler who was a canyon rat from the Tucson area. Also, Mark Zander had begun his climbing in Socorro, Rod Schultz had climbed in Boulder and Barry SmÍth had climbed at Devil's Lake. also want to mention Herb Kincey and the many young climbers he brought to our areas from St. Johns College in Santa Fe. Herb, for many years, ran the Northern New Mexico Search and Rescue group. Herb was always concerned for safety and helped to formulate many of the belaying techniques that we used. He also taught a great many young climbers to respect the cliffs. 6. Epilog Long after ceased to be active in the top roping scene, heard about the "bolt wars", often heated discussions about whether our top roping areas should have bolts placed for permanent anchors. believe that all of us who began this sport in Los Alamos had high respect and fondness for the wonderful basalt cliffs, and believe speak for all of us pioneers ín thanking those who fought to keep the cliffs free of bolts. ln the early days, it seemed as if there would always be new areas to find and open up, but now we know that that the climbing areas are finite. trust the Los Alamos Mountaineers will always serve to protect this fragile resource for the many generations to come. 58

60 The Los Alamos Mountaineers Present: Searching Everest by l)ave Hahn \ilednesd ùy, February 19th Show starts at 8 pm Los Alamos High Schoot Speech Theatre Admission: $7 public, members free Dave Hahn's show will focus on finding Mallory during his 1999 expedition, and also about the subsequent 2001 expedition that searched for Andrew rvine, Mallory's young partner. rvine carried a camera that possibly contained evidence as to how high he and George Mallory climbed in 1924 and whether they reached the top of the world first. Hahn's participation on the 2001 expedition also led to his involvement in one of the highest rescues on record, during which fìve stranded and dying climbers were encountered above 28,000 ft. Hahn summited Everest three times. He will be signing books before the show. Diamond Drive "'åì: M www. 1 osalamos. ors climb zlamc.html 59

Together wi-th my then h.usband.-to-be, Donr wê deveroped a consuming love of the outdoors and particularly, the mountains. The at ailability of techrri-cal climbing j-nstruction at the univ.ersity, and- the proximi-ty of the outstanding quartsite bluffs at Devil,s Lake combined to give L1s our starît and in thi.s way we met and fel.l- in lor e. rt was at this time that three events occurred 114

116 to send us on our way to a life in the western us and worldwide adventures in the mountaj.ns. These events were Maurice Herzog's, i first ascent of Annapurnar the first g00orer to fall, secondly thè British ascent of Evere.st in L953, and finar.ly the rerease of the movie "shane" with its outstandíng setting in, at that time, the little known Grand retons. so events of the early 50,s conspi-red not only to draw Don and me together, but al.so to draw us into the vigorous outdoor life of technical mountaineering. Expedition climbing became an obsession that lasted for over twenty years. Between us we were on many expeditions to canada, Alaska, Peru, Asía and Greenland, plus clímbing in Japan, New z ealand the Alps and Dolomites, on the volcanoes of Mexico and, of course, 10ts of areas in the us. ltle met and, grew fond of some of the well known climbers of the period: Fred Beckey, Alex Bertulì-s, Royal Rotf,i-ns, George Ber-l, Harvey carter, Richard Hechtel and Eric Bjlrrrstad;'.,rle took part in first ascents and new routes. Don and r did a first on peak 11,100 just off the north face of Mt. Fai'rweather. r climbed the Kai.n Face on Mt. Robson and saw Don and his ropemate al-most killed when caught in an avalanche on this fearsome wall. Many: outstanding clí-mbs, many storms and many glaciers were trodden in those golden years, but the culminating achievement for me was a record breaki rg clímb in the Hind.ukush in Don and r were in our ful1 strength ín 196). üle were flitting around the worl-d taking on major climbs almost every other year.

Five of the fellows would go to Camp T on Tuesday, August 5 Richard and myself woutd follow on lniednesday.

The first real-ization of how badl-y wanted to climb that mountain overwhelmed me. "Don't you 118have spares?',, Richard d.emanded.

120 No, crampons werenft part of the extra supplies we agreed to bring. "But you have Korean boots!" That meant big, fat rubber insulated., boots. ltihat normal crampons would possibly fit those: did wan*bi' to cry. Richard could. only sympathize for a mj-nute. He was too angry about no spares. We retreated to Base Camp, Richard grumping at me al-l- the way back. Richardrs spares would fit after all, r coul-d see they'd do!. Howeverr he wasnrt convinced because they wouldn't quite seat at the instep. Ûtlhat's an eighth inch or sor theyrd do! Another Austrian expedition had settled at our Base camp site on sunday. Richard. talked j-n German with them. Vtle showed them my boots and broken crampon. f didnrt need tþ understand the language to feel the discrimination against my Korean boots. They tried. to help all right, as much as they coul-d. They even cut some tread off the vibram soles of my boots, near the instep. The crampons didnot fit any better, but it looked. better to Richard, so r was all set, and happy, except thrat woul-d have loved to talk to Dono but there was no answer from the Camp f radio. Richard and r made it up on Thursd.ay. Don greeted me with open arms. ltlhat ha.d happened? The team at Camp had worried. all níght. Beeause of a brief storm, Camp f had been socked-ín before six orclock l-ast nigh.t r so we had neither sent up the red. flare meaning troubl-e or the green fl-are to indicate that all was well. The guys had cached the radios higher on the mountain, whích explained. the lack of radio communication. üle were glad to be together again! 6 119

121 Plans at Camp included dividing our summit attempts into two teams. Team r was composed of Manfred, Peter and Don Morton. Richard,,. George, Don and r made up Team rr, which would stay back in suppðri. Team f moved up the mountain. Three days later we met them at Camp on our ascent and extended oub enthusiastic congratulations, for they had reached the summit on the previous day, a cold. but sunny, clear day. le spent that night at Camp f which was cold and. miserable r wittr a horribl-e wind storm flapping our tents al-1 night. nle continued on the next day to Camp rrr, zzr5oo feet. This perch was to be the most beautiful campsite we ever had an.d that's true to this day. rt was located on the very edge of a l.00 foot rock wall which over l-ooked the glaciers?5oo feet below and had a spectacular view towards the Russian Pamirs. None of our stoves were working right. Vüe could just bar'ely melt enough snow for our summit canteens. Stirring in the sack at 5 AM in a temperature of about OoF is too much. You can't contemplate getting up, but you,ve got to do i-t. zero degrees doesn't sound very cod, but at these altitudes, with the'bodyrs heat generation one-third of its sea-level capacity, it was exceedingly frigid. We trudged up that last 2000 feet on tha.t mountai-n ever so slowly, taking a break at about 2lrZBO feet on the west summit. 0f course we used no oxygen in those days. coul-d r keep going? Don and.

Notkring! That 200 feet took at least an hour, five steps at a time and then plopping down, gãisping for air. Vtlhen Don saw me continue, guess he was so shocked and pleased that he carre down to escort me up that last 200 feet. rt was relatively easy for him the s econd time, but it was hard for me, the first and only time! 0n top, on topr ofr top, zur]oo feetr th.e summit of Noshaq, the highest 'd. ever been - the highest r"d ever bel An approaching storm warned us not to stay.

The Polish, Japanese and Austrians had climbed the Vrlest Ridge on previous expeditions. Our efforts had accomplished some unique aspects however: ltle were the first Americans to get permission to climb in the ltlakhan Corrj-dor of Afghanistan we had reason to believe that Richard was the oldest man wfi.o ha.d at that time ever gone that hígh; three of our guys had done a new route up the Northwest Face to Camp ïtt as well as a f irst ascent of a near'by peak; and was the only women to have climbed Nosh.aq -- thus beconing the highest woman of the U.S.A.T To our knowledge, held that record for approximately eight years. Credit for women climbers was meager in the 60's. However, this record breaking climb did draw the attention of the LA Times which published a large artj-cle on The ltlomen's Page. Alb.o, the AAC invited us to give a Noshaq slide show at theír annual meeting in Boulder, and we gave additional talks to Large au.diences in Los Alamos, Santa Fe an.cì Albuqu.erque. f was invited to ap,pear on the TV show "To Tell the fruth" as the "real Alice f,iska" in Mayt Thus my crowning achievement gai.ned a certain 1èvel of recognition which made the hard struggle worthwhile

She and her husband, Donald, took part in an American-Austrian expedition to the summit of Noshaq, the highest peak in Afghanistan at 24,600 feet. Mr. Liska was the deputy leader of the expedition, which was led by Richard Hechtel of Redwood City, Calif. Other members of the group were George Barnes, also of Redwood City; Donald Morton of Princeton, N.J.; and Austrians Manfred Kosi and Peter Grossman. Higher than any mountain' outside.asia, Noshaq is located in the Whakan Corridor of northeastern Afghanistan, bordered by Pakistan and Russia on the west and by Kashmir and Red China on the east. The mountain had been climbed only three times previously, and one member of a Polish expedition in l96l was killed in an avalanche. A f tei five weeks of preparation, on Aug. l0 and 13, two teams reached the summit with Mrs. Liska in thé second team. Although only three days were required for the final climb to the top, thg party had spent over a montlr establishing camps along the route and acclimatizing to the altitude. Noshaq is extremely iemote and fìve days onjeep roads and three days on foot had been LOS ALAMOS H L Prec..Nov WHTE ROCK,. H L Prec. Nov required to reach the base of the peak. Mrs. Liska said that she had not planned to accompany the group beyond base camp, but continued the climb after the men gave her a great deal of encouragement, aware that she would be setting an American record while climbing higher than all but a handful of women had ever gone. Once underùay, she stated that she often considered turning bacß. but became determined to overcome the tremendous physical hardships because, " knew that was never going'to get that high again". Her husband stated, "Mountainering is at least 50 per cent psychological. We knew she had it in her so we encouraged her. She's a very strong girl, and a gcíod climber. But it's. a man's world-strong men-and she naturally fell hesitànt about making the climb." He added that his wife was "worn out" by the expedition, taking two weeks to recover. "There wasn't much we could do to help her,l' s said. "Each membel of the pirrty had a job to do.'' Mr. and Mrs. Liska were rop( partners for much of the climb. n the expedition, three high camps and an equipment cache were established âbove the base camp, located at, 15,000 feet. "An expedition such as this presents a massive problem in logistics," said Liska. Forty-fìve native porters helped to carry the necessary 3,000 pounds of food aird equipment into the group's base camp. Mis. Liska reported that they had committed themselves to the expedition in 1967, and had begun ærious preparations a year before the trip.

126 rfs rvlountqrneermg "ñecord Her husband said ' that another problem is the physical conditioning necessary for climbing at such high altitudes, sii :he group used no oxygen equrpment. The group spent nearly five weeks acclimatizing, but, he said, "the highest altitude to which one can {es{.>a acclimatize is 18,000 feet, and the process is only partial". ' Other than its altitude, according to Liska, Noshaq presented no unusual technical difficulties; although there was some steep ice at 16,500 feet and a 300-foot band of cliffs at 22,5OO. "No stretch of the climb was particularly diffìcult, but putting it all together in the snow and at the altitude challenges the stamina and endurance of the èlimber." Though the final summit climbs were made by the west ridge, Liska and Morton also reconnoitered and climbed for the first' time the northwest face of the mountain.

Kohsang means "Rock l ' Mountain" in Farsi, the language of northern Afghanistan. : n preparation for the. Noshaq climb, Mrs. Liska and three of the men climbed Korpusht-e-Yakhi, a nearby 19,@0-foot peak from which they studied the face of Noshaq. The çouple made thé expedition on a "shoe-string'.' budget, which included army fatigues and surplus Korean army þoots, and estimated their expenses at $3,500 including transportation to and from the United States. Mrs. Liska recalled that, "lve met each other on a roök climb at the University of Wisconsin in 1953". They continued in the sport togethe and were married two years later..their interest.ilr mountaineering has been "ve y serious since the rrúd-'50's:.', and.

About twenty feet to the rigþt of this 1s a group of thinner cracks leading to a ;orolnising lecìge near the eastern e<ìge of the face. lrle chose one of these cracks and scrambled to iis beginning. The first roped pitch followed the cra'ck as it zoomed up and then curved right (east) as the craclcs converged. into a shallor 1edge. The next pibch was the shortest but j-nvolved probably the harcesi move of the climb as it contj-nued a few feet to the end of the crack '(r here the spectacular vj-ew down the outheast side inspires well-placed pitons) and then up to bhe long generous ledge r ith Srasst g large bush, and. more view. fo reach the ledge one has to elther squirm up a süeep, dirty, flfteen foot inside corner with good protection and moderate exposure (haro flfth or easy slxth class) or employ balance to ease up an equally short wedge r j.th so-so protection and great exposure (middle flfth class), i e saunterecl forby feet left (southwest) to begln the third pitch whlch followed an obvious rouüe l p to a comfortable gravel-covered platform on the right of one of the squat towers that decorate the face.

Althougþ there may be no easler routes on this 500 ft south face there are others which deserve attentlon because of the sound rock, aesthetic exposure, and glf.ssades back to camp on tkre northeast snor.lfj.elds' Laurence Campbell Ellchl Fukushlma S ^^ *" fho.rñairurs #nnu4 \.\3.Jo 130 3

Cond.itions are changing apidly in the high peak region, however, ond there is new informorion ihat apparently hts not been oted in climbing magazines. This is the main purpose of this erticle. The inlormation given is the beaí have but doubtlees contains 6ome er.ror6. Any corrections should probably be sent to the "Letters to the Editor" section of this magazi e. Prices shown were current as of December, g?? when a pe6o was worth about {t/z cente {..S. They rvill certainly go up drre to Mexico'e high rate of inflation. All altitudee must be assumed to be approximaùe and are based on 6ome known points suppleme ted by my own measur.ements with a Thommen Series 2000 altimeter.l Our party of four, headlamps now extinguished, reaches the rim of Popocatepett just as the sun appears on the horizon. We step from snow to. pumice and look straight down hundreds of feet to a lake of bìue-green water in the bottom of the caldera. Air cuments rising from the depöhs are warm and smell of sulphur. Around the rim to our right and?50 feet higher we can see the su nmit siill 45 minutes away. Out in the distance scaitered early morning clouds light up with the pinks and golds of dawn. Also ablaze a e the snowfielcls of xtaccihrratl,. just to the north, rvhiìe g0 rniles away, in the east, Pico de Orizaba is strikingly silhouetted against the sky. We drop our packs and stand there gazing at the beauty around us, trying t< take it ali in. The aspiring high altitude climber who is seeking nerv challenges is often a frustrated hombre. He has the desi e to reach the summits of the western hernisphere giants but must worry about time, money, distance, equipment, and possible acclimatization barriers rvhen planning a trip to South America or Alaska rvithout prior high altitude expedition expe.rience. There is a way, however, to elimb three big peaks in the 5500-meter category in a reasonable length of time (about 10 days), for a moderate amount of money, antl using the same eqrripment you would for an ascent of ilft. Rainier or Olympus here in the States.

152 checks may be cashed. A pharmacy (De ia Clase Farmacia Lourdes) on the north side of the plaza has medicines, film, post calds featuring the volcanoes, and other odds and ends. About 1% blocks due south, on the one-wav st 'eet running north, is a small food and liquor store (dt Palenque Vinos Yabarrotes) which also sells purifierì water in large 20 liter (5 gal.) jugs. The water alãne will cost, about 8 cents a gallon. For +-hose rvjthout containers, jugs can be bought for g1.25 and trar.led in later elsewhere. Amecameca's market is on the east side of the plaza. Sunday is the best time to visit, but vendors can be lound there throughout the week. Be sure to stock up on fresh fruit before going up on the mountain, also purified water. could find no laundromat in town, bu[ hear there is some kind of facility now at Chalco. A mountain rescue team made up of Cruz Roja (Red Cross) volunteers is also based in the Amecameca-Chalco area. They, along with the Brigada De Rescate Del Socorro Alpino from Mexico City appear to be handling most of the reseue operations on Popo and xta these days. Climbers who want to stay in town overnight should check out the San Carlos Hotel, a recently remodeled establishment just off the plaza. Both Frommer and Foder recommend it in their latest editions. Room rates are suppos'ed to be most reasonable. Another very nice but inexpensive resort hotel, Los Volcanes, lies 3% miles south of Amecameca, just, off the main road to Cuautle in a small community õalled popo Park (not to be confused with popo-xta National park). Accommodations include both modern motel rooms and two-story "cabanas," rvith kitchens and fireplaces, that sleep up to 8 or rnore. A room with twin beds and a private bath costs around $6.00 a night (g8.00 eaeh). To reach the hotel, drive into popo park and look for the Restaurant Aleman Munich on your right. Directly across the road is a large Los Volcanes sign next to a cobblestone.road. Drive east up the road l/4 mile to the hotel entrance which will be on your left. Sr. Alberto Buere, the owner, will take care of your needs. Unfortunately, he doesn't speak English, nor does anyone else there. The hotel features a well-stocked bar, swimming pool, pool tables, bowling, and horseback riding. Busses pass back and forth between Amecameca and Cuautla out on the main highway every 15 minutes, providing convenient transportation to and from town. Climbers will find Los Volcanes an ideal stopover point either before or after their ascents of Popo and lxta. The altitude is?,g00 feet. On to Popo.xta Netional Park f using public transportation, ook for the g- to g- passenger suburban "taxis" leaving Amecameca's central plaza several times daily for Tlamacas Lodge in popolxta Park. The drivers charge a lat rate of about $g.00 oneway. This cost is shared b.y the passe rgers equally. f the taxi is full, each person pays only g1.00. Climbers with their own transportation should lake the main road learìing south from thô soul,hwest corner of the pìaza towards Popo Park and Cuautla. One-half mile from the plaza is an intersec[ion with signs pointing east to Buena Vista nd Popo.xta National park. Turn here and climb some 14 miles up a winding, paved road to the pass of Coriez, the 12,000-fool, low point, between the two volcanoes. A park entrance station just below the pass charges an entrance fee of 2Z cents. f going to lxta turn left, (north) at [he pass and drive 4.7 miles along a rough, but lassable, dirl, roacl, ending at, a small parking area.,here are no facilities of any kind here. Even the old climbers' hut, is now gone. f bound for 'lamacas, turn right (south) at, the pass and continue up the paved roa<ì B miles to the lodge. Two miles up at 1.2,õ00 feet is a socalled climber's camp off the road to the right.'here are no facilities except fór a fire_ place or so, not even an outhouse, but it, is quiet. people with their own vehicles ma.v rrefer the climblr's camp to the crowds ofien found at Tlamacas.. The center of park activities, Tlamacas lies jusl below timberline at an altitude of 12,800 feet. There are now two lodges. The old one, familiar to mountaineers of long ago, has been outclassed by a new, magnificent hotel-like build_ ing which has been under construction for several years. When completed in the summer of 1g7g it wilì consist < f a lodge with restaurant, bar, sleeping areas (hostel style), bathrooms with shorvers, and trvo public rooms rvith f!re_ places. Across the parking. lot is a mt ch smaìler building housing a first aid station ancì the mountain headquaiters of the Socorro Alpino who patrol popo on busy weekends. Climbers are asked to re ister l ere before going up popo rvhenever the Socorro Aìpino is on duty. public restrooms are located in this building on a lower level, in the rear. Current prices at the new lodge, befole completion, are as follows: Parking in the ìot, 14 cents daily. A bed for one night at the lodge, with free cooking privileges, g0 cents. A one-year membership, $1.85. you-rnust. buy this before you can get a bed here, buc a card is supposed to be good at several other national parks rvith overnight facilities. The old lodge down the hill several hr ndred yards is used aìmost exclusively by Mexieans these days. The going price for a bed is onl.y 45 cents, rvith no membership required, but our group didn't care for the place after trying it out. The dormitory section doesn't open until 6 p.m., a real inconvenience, and the only bathroom faciìit, ìs an ot thouse which is overflowing at, present.

153 These shelters can be very crowded; would avoíd climbing on Saturday or Sunday during the Christmas season. Aso, there is no water at the huts, unless the snow line happens to extend down that low. On my last trip it didn't. We solved this problem by arriving the day before with a load of food and water which was cached in the rocks so as to catch as much of the sun's warmth as possible. Upon our return thé'following day with full packs, the water was not frozen, but, a bit of the food had been sampled by some sort of mountain critter. There are two trails leading from the 12,g00-foot parking area to the "knees" huts. One (the low trail) almost, immediately drops down into a wide valley (small stream there), then wanders up the west side of the mountain toward the huts. The so-called high route climbs about 150 feet up from the east side of the parking area toward a cliff, then angles off in a northerly direction, con_ stantly gaining altitude as it crosses four passes. Most climbers prefer this trail. t is not always easy to follow, but there are some faint, red blazes on the rocks rvhich help show the way. f you have any doubts, scout the route out ahead of time, early in the day before the clouds settle in. Just getting to the trailhead can be a problem for people without a vehicle. The 8-mile hike over fronl llamacas is an effort in itself. t took our group 3-Bl4 hours recently to hike to the highest, and last, hut at 15,500 feet. t was very cloudy going in, but having made the water trip the day before, we had no trouble finding our way. cheìked the temperature at the second pass. t was 45oF. at 14,800 feet. Ylon arlivirig t, ühe high hut at 3:3C p.m., we found it, like the ones below, deserted. Howevðr, at sunset a brief break in the clouds revealed two backpackers on the low trail coming up. They stopped when shouted a "hello," then went to the second shelter. The next morning we met the two men, Canaclians, while descending from the summit. By tlark the sky was almost, clear. We lit a candle in the. hut, then went outside to admire the view of puebla, almost 8,000 feet below and 30 miles away. To the east, the lights of Amecameca coukl also be clãarly seen. A check of pulses before going to bed revealed everyone was in the high 70's or low g0's, not too bad considering the altitude. Ve polished off the evening with a Dalmane_ each ancì slept right through the nighã until was awakened by my wrist rvatch alarm at 4:80 a.m. By 5:45 we had left the shelter and were scrambling up a 700-foot rock band in the dark, using headlarp.. *fn" scrambling turned to climbìng at one point, after losing the way brielly. Some years the band is eovered with snow. This year we had to ascend to over 16,000 feet on xta before finding any. Once the sun rose it was easy going all the way over xta's several false summits to the high point, which is marked with a small cross. A check of the thermometer and wind gauge on top revealed readings of 16oF. and 20 m.p.h., respectively. The time was?:5õ. t took our group only two hours l,o make the ascent, but eonditions were unusually good. Normally would allow at least three hours, and another one and one-half to get back down to the hut. From there it is a fast two hours to the parking area. By noon, the peak was once again compietely obscured by clouds. classify xta as a somewhat more serious climb than Popo. While not really more difficult l,echnically, the long ascent rouüe, winding ove the various parts of the sleeping lady's anatomy, is quite different from the basicaliv "straight up, straight down" approach used to clirnb popo. Should a whiteouù or sudden storm occur, it tvould be very difficult to find one's way across lxta's wide summit snowfields. n the late 1g60's eight or nine students died together on ûhe rock band above the high hut. Caught in a storm, they were unabìe lo find a way clown and froze to death. A shrine jn their memory marks the spor. Of the three peaks, xta is my favorite. There is both a wildness and intimacy about it which, in spite of the mountain's lower altitude, appeals to me. enjày popo for its magnificent crater sperving out heat ãnã,úplr. fumes, Orizaba for its height, but xta, because of iú almost mystical quality, a feeling difficult to put into words. East to pr ebls Puebla is an ideal stopover point when traveling from xta-popo Park to Pico de Orizaba.t's a rather qui"t of 350,000 people, and because of its altitu<te (Z,l?0 feei) "ity one's acclimatization shouldn't be too degraded by spending a night or so there. To reach. Puebla by bus catch one of the man.y leaving Amecameca throughouf; l,he day. The bus station in Puebla is only two blocks east of the main plaza (or zocala, as it is called there) and within easy rvalking distance of several hotels suitable for the needs of mosl climbers. f driving recommend you take the dirt roacl easl. frorn the Pass of Cortez in Popo-xta park instead of going all the rvay back around the nrountain range via Amãcarneca and Chalco. This road isn't on the map, but, it is rvellmaintained and very interesting. Drop down from the pass, follorving signs to the new resort eommunity of Buena Vista, then continue on the main roacl through five or six ndian villages to Cholula, a total distance of about thirty miles. On the walls of buildings here ancl there in the villages are small bìue and white signs pointing the way. From Cholula it's only six miles into puebla. My favorite hotels rvithin a block or so of the zocala are the follorving. All have twin beds and private baths.

160 LAMTrip Report: Brazos - 1B September L976 Af ter a rainy drive, everybody assernbled betrareen 10 and 11 p.rn. on the ltth along the Brazos Rivet \üest of Brazos Lodþe. The Cat Burgler party left ca. 6:30 am on the 18th while the others left about 30 minutes later. The weather was clea.r all da.y (and inëo night) and the temperature rìlas ideal. All the ropes got to the top in very goo'd time except for Fukushima and Campbell's ropes which made it to the top just'before sunset. The flashlight de-qcent by the trhite Gtrlley and the Central Rib parties (including Brandt and Cuthbertson who waited at the top) hras uneventful., though somewhat taxing to those with no or inadequate flashlights. Srrrunary of routes:. EASY RDGE: C. Keller-K. Mueller, D. Petersen-G.!üil1iams (A"RC). CENTRAL RB: D. Brandt-R. Cuthbertson, E. Fukushima- S. Freund..CAT BURGLER: N. Ensslin-T. Beyer, M. Znader-M.

161 CENTRAL RB - 18 September L976 üe scrambled to the bottom of Great CouLoir and continued up a smal1 gul1ey on its east side.,e roped up just below an easy step in the gulley. The first major route!'rent above the step and then cut righê onto the ridge at a couple of prominent trees overlookíng the bowling alley to the east. The next (2nd) pitch goes up an obvious chiuurey just rúest of the ridge crest. There is a chock' stone about L00 feet up this pitch which was Laken on its left side. (One rope finished this pitch just above it; the olher just below.) The chirnney opens up on the third pitch; we just conëinued up to some convenient Ërees about 140 feet above the chockstone. The fourth piëch (for us) backed down some 20 feeë and traversed left above the Great Coul-oir to a large ledge with a Large old snag lying across Ít. The fifth pitch continued the traverse past the snag into a steep gully. After crossing it, r^re ascended to a lone tree just l-eft of the gulley some 40 feet up. The sixth pitch started at the tree. l,e put in a piton above Ëhe Ëree and then crossed the sharp ridge barring our re-entry into the previous (steep) gulley, ascende.d it for 30 feet and traversed right to a large ledge with some ten big trees on it. [Possibly, a direct ascent of a continuing chimney system after Ëhe third pitch would have put us here. The cl-imb eases up past here. The ridge crest to the east was attained in two easy pitches and another 300 feet of scrambling finishes the climb. My rope used one piton (at the beginning of the sixth piëch) and a few nuts and several slings, mostly on the third pitch. The exposure is fairly spectacular on the traverse (fifth pitch) and the step around on the sixth pitch. È is a nice route with excellent views to the west. trle could see the upper parts of the llhite Gulley and the Cat Burgler routes very well. t is a safe route as well wíth many good anchors (trees and cracks and flakes) with a few hard moves. As with other routes on the Brazos, beginners who try this route should be in excellene condition since it is a long roule even though many of the pitches are not technical. Rockfall danger is minimal even in the chimney. EF 21 Sept

162 El Rito 14 May L977 Assemble at Methodist 1ot aë Leave by 0715 in rhree cars. Pick up Schultz at the Y. Meet again at the turn off in El Rito (eâst end of tor^m where the hlghway -96- turns right and the dirt road Ëo Vallecitos goes straight). Stay right at Ëhe first fork (stay on the main road) and park aë the second fork. lthis fork in in Lhe forest and the main road goes to the right and up while the secondary road goes left and level. There is a brown FS sign a few feet before the fork for the traf.í.íc going south õut of Ëhe secondary road...it says 44. The distance from El Rito is less than 10 miles, 'd guess.l lüalk up the road (very very muddy) for 15 urinutes or until the cliffs are seen to Lhe right. e had L2 climbers who went on six routes. The weather was alëernately sunny and snolry. took the lefthandmost route with Frank Buono. t started at a talus slope at the left edge of the good stuff (to its lefc is the obviously crumbling rocks which is the cause of Ehe talus) and climbed to thè top of a big flake which is above and left of a ledge with a tree. Descend 2-3 feet off the Ëop of the flake to the ríght and enter a crack system. Follorv it up and to the right unëil just below a deep reeess. Climb to it and belay from within. The second pitch hrent up on the left side of the recess and followed the righë ridge of. a class 3-4 gully until traversing to an obvious tree 30 feet above and slightly to the right of the recess. t is a short hop and a skip to the easier stuff near the top. The descent is easy via the "summit" ri4gq going left and getting off it to a foresëed basin right and following ië in a large counterclockwise arc back to tñe r /est side of the ricks. Back at Los Al-amos at Other rope leaders: Larry Campbell, Len Margolin, Rod Schultz, Mark Felthauser, and Mark Rislove. 161

168 LAM Trip Report: Cabezon Peak 29 0ctober 1'978 The main party 'l eft Anderson Drugs at 0620 and drove to San Luis via San Ysidro where we met the rest of the party. The turn off to San Luis off Nl'{44 is not marked but is the only (dirt) road of any significance at L8 miles from San Ysidro. The ghost town of Cabezon is bypassed to its right and a left turn is made to a track leading to the southwest side of the peak from a point almost due west of the south end of the peak. At parti es ( fi ve ropes of two) attacked the south face of Cabezon at various poínts while avoiding a party of 5 which was a1 ready on the peak when we arrived. The serious cl imbi ng started about 1000 after a hike to the base of the cliffs and some investigations of possible routes. The best rock was general'ly found on the lower half of t.he face whose heíght was a maximum at the extreme right (east) edge of the face. The dark band of rock near the top was found to be quíte good whích is surprisíng considering how bad it looks from a distance. Four of the rope teams reached the summít during the afternoon, with the last party arriving at the top arouncl L500. The cars!vere reached two hours later after a short feast on top by some of the climbers and a successful discovery of the descent route which begins on the east edge of the summit field. The majority of the party stopped to eat at Los 0jos in Jemez Springs and arrived back in Anderson Drugs at 21'00. Roped parties: Hank Bl ackwel'l -Kathy Bl ackwel, Chri s Foster- Karen Foster, Andrea Eddy-l,les Horner, Mark Zander-Bi 1l Johnson and tiichí Fukushima-John Sarracino.

174 Castle Peak Trip August 4-5, L979 ltag.màt- The trip from'los Alamos^by LAù oembera Bob Co an (leader), Dave and Faye Brorm, and Bill JohriÈon, and by guest Don Martinson; e left to!,n at 7:15 am Saturday (Àugust 4) and arrlved ln Aspen (305 nlles) ae 2130 pm, with an hour stop ln Buena Vlsta for lunch. At Aspeû lre ûet, Ted and Bev Anderson, frfends of the Browns' frorn Minneapolls, and drove two cars to hro niles or so beyond Ashcroft. Here all- gear lras piled lnto rny Blazer, whlch drove 3 or 4 ml1es further up a Jeep road to timberllne r hlle the other síx peopj-e walked (ej.evation gain about 1600 feet). By 4245 pn (fncludlng a 2O-ninute dej-ay from minor car trouble, caused by a spinning front wheel throwíng a rock against the flywheel houslng) all reached a point at 11440r about 50 yards beyond the last stream crosslng, r here there were Èqro or three fair canpíng spots, lrlth psrkfng Bpace for a couple of cars. Clfunbers left carnp Sunday norning êt varying tfmes from to 6:55 arn. The rout,e followed the road to Ëhe basin belo the Montezuma Mine (12400t), Èhen N^,.l, and Sl{ for 3/4 nlje fnto the bowl NNE of Castl-e Peak at about 13400t. (Much of the 314 nlle naa on snow slopes, but ice axes rrere ûot. necessâry.) Here we headed SE up a rather nasty rock and scree slope to a saddle at 13750'r thensw 0.3 nfle along the ridge to the eur'mit (L4265 ). The ridge wae rough and requlred a fafr amount of scrambling, but no technical difficulties and onl-y moderate exposure. AlL seven persons reached the top between 9:45 and 9:55 an; no appreciable difftculties were experfenced by any of the three persons who c,me from Low altitudes l ithin the 3 preceding days (and one of whon had never clí nbed a hfgh mountain before). Noone had ambition enough to traverse the ridge to Conundrun and back--it appeared to be moderately rough, but rtith no aerious obstacles. There sas a fine snow-sj-ope descent from the saddle betweer Castle and Conundrrrm, buë only one of us carrfed an lce ax; tr o or three other cl-lmbers ascended by thaë route hile Ìre qtere on top.,e left the sumit at 10:45, descending a none-too-good scree slope a short distaace l{e of the top to avoid retracfng most of our ascànt ridge, and ilid sftting glissades dor^m a serles of sno v slopes en rouêe back to the road--whlch e reached at 12:00. l'le arrived at camp at L2245 and uost peopl-e left almost inmediately for the walk dor. Three of us left Aspen at 3:00 (the Browns stayíng for a backpacking trip with the Andersons) and arrived home at 10:45 pm, with an hour for supper in Buena Vlsta. l.e had beautiful- weather all day both days, the clj'mb was successful, and the views from the top good--of Pyrarnid, the Maroon 173

177 Crestones Trlp August 18-19, L979 The trip had been orlginall-y scheduled as a technical clfnb of the 81LÍngwood Arâte (DennLs Brandt, l-eader) and a non-techafcal- c1ínb of KÍt Carson (Bob Cowanr leader), both frorn the South Colony Lakes. The technical c1ínb was cencelled because of nargfnal rüeather and Lack of Ínterest (originall-y 7 nenbers, but later dwindling to 3). Those planning non-technfcal cll nbe (Bob Cowan, Bl11 Johnson, and guests Torn Hewitt and George Balog, headed for Kit Car6on, and Len and Carol- MargoJ-in, Jfm Breedlove, Rod Schultz, and guest Chick Keller, headed for Crestone Peak vla Cottonwood Lake and the south red guj-j-y) took a chance on the weather, and left Los AJ.amos at 6:L5 am Saturday. OnJ-y one 4-wheeL-drive vehlcle was avaíl-abl-e; thfs ferried 2 peopl-e and all- gear to the end of the Jeep road (condítion fair). The other 7 people r alked from near tree line (2.0 níles 1n from Colfax Lane), starèl.ng at am and coverfng the 5.8 nlles to road end by 1:35 to 2:00 pn. Though cloudy, the reather had not looked lm nediatel-y threaëening. Horselrer a rain and slushy-snoür atorn hit suddenly Just as rte started the 2O-ninute pack to the Lakes, and by the tlne it ended (3:30 or so) the ground and mountaíns were falrly welj. eovered rsith snow and slush. The four people planníng to do Kit Carsonl ere not well eqfpped for such r eather, got rather wet, and rsíth no sun and a strongish wind faced a dísrnal night, wlth poor prospecta for climbing on Sunday. At 6:i.5 they packed out, returning home at L2:30 an. The renaining five people spent a reasonabl-e nlght' endurfng a short sleeë storm about 9 prn, and nlght-j.ong winds. Sunday dav ned partl-y clear and wíndy, but upon crestfng the Broken Hand-Needle rldge they found a complete r.rhite-out faclng them, and gave up Èhe c1imb. (So ai-so did later parties of 3 headed for the Needle and B headed for Cottoilrood Lake and the Peak.) They returned to Los Alanos about, 8:30 pn. Even the three people r ho had origlnally planned to stay tí1-1- Monday gave it up as a losj.ng proposition; 450 miles round tríp (for the -wheel-drive car), Brith f.ittle to shov for it.

193 LAM Trip to S. Maroon and Pyramíd Peaks August 28-30, l9b2 Seven climbers made the trip (R. D. Cowan, leader, Dave and Nick Brown, Bill and Emi'ly Johnson, Henry Laquer, and Gene Tate), along with three non-c'limbers (Faye Brown, Justine Laquer, and Barbara Tate). Some persons left Los Alamos FrÍday, others left at 7:30 am saturday, arriving at the Aspen Highlands Ski Area parking lot about 2:35 pm, and catchíng the 3:15 bus (fare $2 round trip) to arrive at Maroon Lake about 3:40, followed by a 70-mínute backpack to camp in a grove of pine trees near the upper end of Crater Lake. The climb of S. Maroon on Sunday started at 5:50 am, with everyone on summit12:.'15 to 12:45, and back in camp by 7:00 pm. The route involved an hour hike S along the 'Jest Maroon Creek trail, lþ"-hour climb tl up a mostly grassy slope to the S end of the S ridge of Maroon, N along the ridgen then mostly contouríng along a cairn-marked route on the t'l side of the ridge, with a steep climb E and N up the final summit pyramid, There was much loose rock (hard hats prevented a near-serious accident near the top!! ), but technical diffículties and exposure were minimal. The weather was marginal-- 70 to 90% darl( cloud cover, with the summîts of Snowrnass and Capitol often in the clouds--but with no lightning nor rain anywhere, and only a trace of snow flurries as we left the summit. No wind and very comfortab'l e temperatures. All except Cowan, the Laquers, and the Tates returned to Los Alamos (.Brown had dríven his car in to Maroon Lake before the B am road closure on Saturday), arriving home about 4 am. Cowan, Laquer, and Tate climbed Pyramid on Monday, Jeaving camp at 6:10 am, on the sunmit l:10 to t25 pm, and back to camp at 7:00 to 9:00 pm, bven) 192

197 Snowmass Mountain August J-2-1.4, 1983 tr'our people rnade the trfp: Larry Dauelsberg, Dan Rusthoi, Randy Thierne, and Bob cor an (l"eader). ^e left l^hite Rock et 5:50 pm Friday August L2r and reached a good campfng area (no water) about 0.6 mile s of Poncha Pass (uphill west of the hfghway for about half a mile or so on the N leg of a BLM loop road) at 10:45. A lightnfng and rain storm ranged from the N to NE to B of us, but we Lucked out sleeping under the stars, Saturday am we drove on to the Snor mass Lake trailhead via Snowmass Village and the steep dirt road mentloned Ln Borneman and Lampert (somewhat rough but easily negotiable by ordlnary cars, in spite of Ëhe previous dayrs raln), anlving 11:20 aro, 324 url1es fro n hrhlte Rock (about 7 L/2 hours tocal drlving rine). The tlz mile backpack ro camp near the SE corner of Snorsmass Lake took an even 5 hours. Views of Bear creek en route were fabul-ous--the creek looked more like a snow avalanche than a cagcade. The trail in was nuddy, but basically obvious; near the upper end of the mafn valley (after hours) ir crossed to the wesè slde of the beaver ponds on a large l-og Jam, Êhen cont,inued S at r^rater level to tlmber, then st.art.ed swltchbacking steeply uphí1l--r'here it started raining for most of the one hour remaínder of the hike t,o the lake. There were numerous people ln the area (including a female foresè ranger), buè no problem ff.ndlng a campsite. i^e left camp at 5:50 an Sunday, reached the snow líne at B:00, the skyline ridge (up a short steepish crack not far S of the surnmit) at 9:J.5, and the summit ftself ax The route fron camp followed around the S side of Snoç mass Lake, across a boulder field on the west side of the lake, then up a trail on the bare-dlrt S Lip of the gully doi^rn which runs a goodly strean of water. t is best. to cross the stream to the steep rock and grass elope leadfng on west 'rard before the trail gets too steep, rocky, and difficult t,o negot,iate. (On the return trip one should likewíse not cross Ëo the S slde too soon--rusthoi tried lt and got Lo make an ice-ax arrest whfle slidlng 30 feet dom the l-oose rocky "trail", with loss of considerable skin from one arn.) The snow was of good consístency for step kicking, but steep enough in the upper portíon that our Íce axes were deflnitely called for. Crampons were unnecessary for the experlenced, but Rusthoi (on steep snov for the fírst time) found them very reassuríng. Rusthoi and Thleme stopped on the ridge to dry socks and warm toes in the sun (tenperature perhaps 50o, i-ittle wind); only Dauelsberg and Co an ürenè on Ëo the sunmit (dry rock and a good scramble rith moderate exposure--best to contour left inftially rather than head strafght N up the ridge). Started down fron Èhe rldge at 10:20, and were off Ëhe snor,r in 20 minutes, after some nice glissading on the lower portíon. Back to camp at. 12:15 and started the pack out at 1:35 just as it started to rain. The sun ca ne baek out after an hour, and we reached the cars about 5:15. r ent on to Breckenrldge for further clfuùing; the other 3 ate supper in Aspen and presumably got back to ^hite Rock 1n the wee hours Monday am. A strenuous trip (prinarily because of the long backpack), but beautiful countrv.

209 Trip Report Sand Creek, October Bill Priedhorsky We are pleased to report another fabulous experience in the canyon country. led a party of ten into the Escalante-Grand Staircase National Monument, camping for four nights on Sand Creek. We spent 4 nights in camp, comfortably settled with 5 horses worth of gear packed in by Bob and Sioux Cochrane of Boulder Mountain Ranch ( ). Participants included Marilyn Yeamans, Karen Grace, John Meier, Ginger and Karl Buchendahl, Faye and Dave Brown, and Dick and Judy Opsahl. A parallel 8-person trip, led by Kathleen Gruetzmacher, camped nearby, arriving and departing2{ hours before our party. -^t We broke our dríve to the Escalante wíth a two-hour hike in the dome country west of l-ake Powell. Seven of us left Los Alamos at 6:30 AM on the morning of Wednesday October 8; the others drove from Park City and Flagstaff. t was raining and dark as we waited for Karen at 6 AM; but it cleared by the time we reached Utah, and the weather was fabulous for the rest of the trip. The drive took 208

210 about 12 hours, including a two-hour stop for a hike in the dome country along highway 95 west of Lake Powell. We stayed the first night and the last at Jan Belnap's Eagle Star B&B ( ). She seems to run the B&B on a part-time basis, but was happy to have us as usual. The B&B has four rooms (one with two beds, the others with one). John and each took a turn on the futon in the recreation room. The charge for the whole house, with breakfast, was $440 per night. We have reserved the same B&B for the nights of Saturday October 10 and Saturday October 17 next year. Bob and Sioux Cochrane picked up some of the gear at the B&B on the evening of our arrival, and the rest at the trailhead at 10 AM the next morning. The only negative factor the whole trip was Bob's concern about the size and weight of our load. This was complicated by the additional gear that appeared in the morning, after Bob thought the packing problem was nearly solved. We departed from the Boulder Mail trail parking lot, south of Boulder, at about 10:30 AM. Our route took us about a mile down the trail, to a cutoff established by Bob and Sioux a few hundred yards before Sand Creek. We followed the horses' tracks across the sandy juniper terain, stopped for a break at a tank in a sandstone drainage, then cut down a drainage on the east side of Sand Creek, approximately ll4 mile upstream of the drainage that descends the other side from Slickrock Saddle. Bob and Sioux dropped our gear at the top of a small bluffjust above Kathleen's campsite. After spending some time looking for an optimal campsite, we choose a smoothbottomed wash, just above the creek, about 200 yards downstream of the gear dropoff. The haul was substantial, but accomplished with 2 or 3 roundtrips per person. Karl and Bill forced the decision on the campsite by hauling down the first two panniers. Karen and Marilyn had a beautiful campsite atop a little knoll, to which they applied some serious nesting instinct, which went as far as arranging little protective rock circles around the cactus. Bill, on the other hand, just threw his sleeping bag on the rock. Dinner was John's chicken cury. Because of the late October sunrise, outings from camp tending to start at about 10 AM. We split into groups each day. The first day, the Browns, Opsahls, Buckendahls, Karen, and Marilyn joined with Greg and Dave Scudder, Arne, Glenn, and Kathleen from the other trip, for a hike downstream. The group waded through cold water for about 1/4 mile, but climbed out when they reached a narrows. Dave's radio slid down the 209

211 slickrock into the cold water, but he recovered it with a quick dive. The party split, with one group roping out of the inner canyon, then hiking up the slickrock to Slickrock Saddle, looking over the top to Death Hollow, and noting a well-worn cairned trail to the north, which probably connects to the Mail Trail. The other party waded the chest-deep natrows, then hiked cross country to the natural bridge (marked on the ma, Seeing a rattlesnake, and red and grey foxes. Bill fished solo upstream to the Mail Trail, but was somewhat frustrated by the heavily vegetåted small stream, which offered only rare opportunities to cast. He caught 5 brown trout, up to about 11 inches in length. Ginger and Karl cooked pork loin fajitas, preceded by guacamole, salsa, and chips as appetizer, while some of us visited the other camp for margaritas (with ice!). Partying in the moonlíght on a mesa top. After dinner, Marie visited our camp to invite us to their campfire. After a while (perhaps this was the margaritas talking), eight of us thought it would be a great idea to hike under the full moon. We hiked up the south fork of our drainage, then scrambled up the slickrock to the ridge above. The views of the slickrock cliffs and domes under the moonlight were otherworldly. Even Ginger made it up a friction scramble that might have intimidated her in the daylight. We sang (or made noises that we thought were singing), howled at the moon, and danced. Dave Scudder forgot his alma mater's hymn, but Bill did not. After a false start towards a slope that looked far too steep to attempt at night, we descended a gentle friction slope that put us in a drainage that, to our surprise a few hundred yards further, turned out to be our main drainage. All individuals except one unnamed proved that they 210

212 could hike and not fall down, margaritas or no. The unnamed individual completed the hike with the sturdy assistance of a lovely lady supponing him from each side. The unnamed individual thought that two ladies were great,and wondered how much more he needed to drink to get four. The moonlight hike was perhaps the best memory of the trip, both for its aesthetic and the rowdy good time. The next day, Saturday, was our second full day, and the last for Kathleen's group. Bill again fished solo, hiking two hours downstream, to a point not far above the confluence of Willow Patch Creek, then working his way upstream to a point not far below the narrows. The stream was significantly wider and easier to fish than the upstream segment. He caught 20 trout, mostly browns with a few rainbo\rys, and caught many by casting to a fish that he first located by sight. The fish were wary, and would flee if they saw him even 20 yards distant, but would almost always snike a dry fly if they were unwarned. His largest catch was 13 inches, but bigger fish to 16 inches were easily visible in the clear water. One thnt got øwøy - a 15 to 16 inch brown trout sulkíng under a rock ín Sand Creek

213 The same day, a party of about ten hiked cross-country downstream to the natural bridge, descending to the canyon bottom. They climbed high on the slickrock, obtaining a fabulous view of the Sand Creek country. Unfortunately, on the descent, Karl fell about 4 feet and rolled at least 6 feet more, hurting his knee enough to confine him to camp the next day. He stepped onto a ledge that collapsed beneath him. Thanks to his rugby roll, he was not hurt any worse. Karl finished the hike in a knee brace. The hikers saw Bill fishing below the natural bridge and waved, but did not meet up with him. The bridge was below a pouroff, and above a pool which we swam. The vegetation near the stream below \ryas so thick that the watergathering party could not find each other. [lpî!!il:ãè' 1';]: ir'. Most of both parties gathered around the campfi.re: Cosíma, Marie, Arne, Kathleen, Judy, and Dick in the front row; Marilyn Jan, John, Glenn, Faye, Dave Brown, Karen, Greg, and Dave Scudder in the back row. That night the campfire was in our camp. The ravenous party devoured Karen and Marilyn's wine, olive, pepper, cheese and cracker appetizers, and beef stew. The appetizers disappeared from their cans before they could be elegantly arranged on plates (pearls before swine, we suppose). Karen, exnurse, diagnosed Karl's knee, and determined that the injury was not fatal. She prescribed a heavy dose of vodka and Crystal Light. he other party took advantage of our campfire to burn all their toxic waste. Greg Scudder's 212

214 shaggy dog tale was almost as bad as the toxic waste. And Bill forgot almost all his blonde jokes, to Karen's relief..,.'. lr. r í i,..r l ' 'i./ Water in the desert - a spríng-fed draínage that flows ínto Sand Creek. On Sunday Bill tore himself away from fishing and led an exploratory hike. He promised a straightforward hike to Slickrock Saddle, with a further exploration of the cairned trail. He lied. The party included the Opsahls, 6213

215 John, Karen, Marilyn, and Ginger. They hiked cross-country to an east-side drainage that entered just downstream of the narrows. Water flowed from a large plunge pool for a few hundred yards to Sand Creek. As always, water in the desert made for a beautiful sight. We crossed the stream opposite the mouth of this side drainage, and worked our way up to the first bench, through the bushes and a cliffy layer. The streamside was moist enough to sport mushrooms. The first bench looked like a dead end, but on closer inspection we found a friction route up from the top of the talus, and an even better short climb of 6-8 feet that could be protected by putting one of the guys on each end. Karen took Ginger's questionable advice and attempted the friction route, which worked well except for some skin lost to a slide, and a lost hat that John retrieved. Ginger ignored her own advice, and took the climb with Marilyn. But she performed bravely, climbing without assistance, through moves that she would hardly have attempted a few years previously. The Opsahls turned back to camp before the climb. $þ: :?.*-,,ffi lj!, ffi"'ej &-$ *,1 We used a personal means of descent to help the ladíes downfrom an 9-foot drop.,7 214

216 This party then traversed the slickrock below the multi-fingered point, on the west side of the creek downstream of camp. They lunched at the tip of one of the fingers, with a view over the whole Escalante country. The problem now was to find a way to the mesa top, in order to loop back home via Slickrock Saddle.

The guys jumped; the ladies jumped onto the guys' shoulders and were piggybacked to safety, much to the ladies' relief. Ginger was so worried that she broadcast her weight before climbing on. We'll never tell! The party thought they were home free, until they came across a crack that blocked our passage. Bill leaped to the bottom, committing himself to the passage; Marilyn found an easy walking route to the same destination. The party worked their way up a gulley and a breakdown slope to the mesa top and a bird's-eye view of the whole country. The rocky terrain was broken by the bright yellow cottonwoods at the confluence of Willow Patch Creek. 215

218 miracle of the afternoon was that Karen found her sunglasses at the bottom of the tank, after diving in with them on her head. The party descended further, passing several tanks, then cut cross-country to the north, arriving at the canyon edge just opposite camp. The descent from the bench was easy, but the last ten feet through the willows cost Marilyn one of her water bottles.

219 We split into two parties the day that we broke camp. Karl and Ginger, slowed by Karl's bad knee, hiked out the way they came in. They met the Cochranes and their five pack horses en route; Sioux volunteered to bring the gear to the B&8, so the Buckendahls were free to have lunch at Hell's Backbone Grill, clean up, shuttle the cars, and meet the rest of the party at the Escalante River trailhead. Bill led the other eight on a cross-country adventure to the Escalante. They reached Willow Patch about a mile above the confluence, and had lunch in a little glen, with a small stream running over moss and rock into a cattail-fringed pond. The cottonwoods were at their autumn peak. n the middle of the Utåh desert, we found ourselves hiking through a s\ryamp. We followed Willow Patch nearly to the confluence, then worked our way up and out..:'..1,' :l:.;. -:_. From the top, our first view of Sand Hollow was otherworldly, with a mix of white and red stone set out in walls, domes, and fissures. A balanced rock was perched just to the right of our route. We followed Sand Hollow's sandy 218 l1

220 bottom downstream, with a view towards following the water through Sand Creek to the Escalante, but were surprised. Sand Hollow is blocked by a major pouroff in the red formation. Despite John's optimism, it was impassable, certainly so without a rope. We abandoned our plan for Sand Creek and backtracked upcanyon, ascending a ramp to hike below the white dome that is the highlight of Bowington Bench. The next problem was to fînd a way down into the dry canyon that parallels Calf Creek to the west. This was accomplished via a butt slide down a friction slope that took out Karen's designer pants, and a six-foot step for which Bill had the onerous duty of helping down all the ladies. On the final scramble to the canyon bottom, Dave Brown sat on a cactus. The party's sympathy for Dave's plight was held in check by their general hilarity. After a final small pouroff in this drainage, the party reached the Escalante and, a few minutes later, the trailhead. TheT l2hour hike ended with arendezvous precise to a few minutes. Expenses were settled at the final dinner. The packer's fee was $1000, augmented by our 20Vo tip. The total expense per person was $208, including the bed and breakfast stay. The party split after breakast. Karen, Marilyn, and Bill drove back via the Burr Trail (2 hours drive, one hour hike near the switchbacks), and caught the 11 AM ferry (every odd hour this time of year) from Bullfrog to Halls Crossing. The driving time from Hall's Crossing to [,os Alamos wast l2 hours. Plans are already underway for October '04, featuring a 6-night camp at the V/illow Patch confluence. The theme for the trip will be drinks with umbrellas. The prospect of our future adventure helps temper our sadness at ending this year's trip

222 6 Accident Reports 221

223 THE SHPROCK NCDENT ON MARCH2&28, 1970 A PERSONAL ACCOUNT WTH HSTORY Don Liska Jan.27,2006 The accident on Shiprock that occuned during the period March 26.28,1970 was arguably the most significant that the Los Alamos Mountainearing Club was ever involved in. This accident culminated in the ofücial closure of the entire Navajo Reservation to climbing, a ban which exists to this day. Prior to this, only Totem Pole and Spider Rock had been placed off limits (afrer 1962) though the winds of change were in the air and Shiprock had already claimed two lives in the 31 years since its first ascent so the traditional Navajo fear of death therefore entered into the closure decision. With increasing traffic by climbers, this decision was nearing a critical stage in have climbed Shiprock g times over the years and have participated in several first ascents of the towers sunounding the rock but in1966 when first came to the lab and joined LAMC only my first climb in This was the 43d recorded ascent, 41 climbs having followed the 2d ascent in 1952, which showed the special appeal of Shiprock in the 50's. My 1959 climb continued to hold me in awe of this famous edifice. Shiprock in those days still represented an extremely attractive, wild and difficult climbing adventure for wouldùe extremists and many well known rock climbers made the climb in the 50's and 60's, the samê era when big wallclimbing in Yosemite was developing. The complexity and length of its route, the number of ropes required by a pair of climbers to achieve a safe ascent (four), the heavy loads of equipment and water, the potential for a dry bivouac, the heat, etc. tended to ward off casual ascents. Perhaps sparked by my own personalfervor there quickly developed in Los Alamos a few climbers who became *extreme Shiprock enthusiasts" such as Larry Dauelsberg and especially Ernie Anderson as prime part c pants but also Mike Williams, Carl Keller, Eichii Fukushima, Larry Campbell, Dave Brorn and Mark Tander.l believe that fervor has cooled considerably in recent decades and Shiprock today has become more of a 50 classics peak baggers target. A tst OF HSTORY la/hile the ban has not stopped all climbing on the reservation, those wtro choose to break it are subject to anest, fine and even jail if apprehended. myself have broken the ban twice since that fateful day in 1970, the last time in 1982with Norbert Ensslin and Mike Fazio, and both times on Shiprock itself. Climbing Shiprock will not cease since it is considered one of the'50 classics" in Alan Stec* and Steve Rope/s 1g7g.Fifty Classic Climbs of North America". The authors reiterate the climbing restrictions and suggest that negotiations could possibly mitigate the ban. This has been tried repeatedly and atways failed since the ban persists. However, it was officially þroken once, in 1975, by the Navajos themselves during the filming of 'The Eiger Sanction". 222

224 Then they allowed Eric Bjornstad and Ken Wyrick from fvloab to do the climb one last time to prepare the summit for the helicopterfilm crewand remove existing ascent 5 hardware and all traces of prior climbs. lncidently the tribe also received $40,000 (19ø dollars) for this 'relaxation' of their own rules. ln Alpinist X, Bjomstad reveals that Totem Pole continues to be climbed but by its hidden þack side'bandito" route. Similarly, all climbens who adhere to the desirability of the Fifty Classics will continue to find a way to circumvent the ban on Shiprock, most by simply ignoring it. ln fact, more climbers ascended Shiprock in the 15 years after the ban than in the 31 years preceding it. THE CRTCAL ACCDENT (Reported also in AAC 'Accidents in North American Mountaineering', 24ü annual report of AAC safety committee,1971, pp &11). On Thursday March 26,197A a three man party consisting of Jim Smith and Bill Bull, both from Boulder, and George Andrews from Menlo Park started up the standard route on Shiprock intending to climb to the main (north) summit that day, bivouac at the'u- Notch" below the Horn pitch that night and climb the south summit on Friday before descending. There was a second party at base camp as they left, including Don Liska and Larry Dauelsberg of Los Alamos and both members of LAtvlC, along with Bill Hackett of Las Cruces and Dave Beckstead of Colorado Springs. They intended on scouting a new and difficult direct aid route up the west face of the rock to the "U- Notcft" where the first party was intending to bivouac. Our route was totally pioneering and we had little idea of the time required to reach the notch or of the difficulties along the way. We expected two or three bivouacs. The weather that day was overcast with a forecast of clearing. As the Smith party broke camp early on Thursday we briefly discussed their climb and the first premonitions of possible difüculties ârose when they informed us that they did not intend to leave a handline at the friction traverse, a steep, tricky and exposed 12S pitcfi on the east face of the rock below the second rappel. Since two of our party had several times climbed Shiprock and knew all its hazards we wamed them that the traverse could be a difücult plaoe to retreat âcross in wet or snowy conditions. Then we parted and went our separate ways. We started up our route over the'nesf and placed our first bivouac at the base of the huge west wall where direct aid climbing was to begin. About 1 AM early Friday a fast moving cold front out of thê NW caught both climbing parties high on the peak in their respective bivouacs. As we learned later, the Smith party had in fact not reacfied an nrhere near the U-Notch but had bivouaced on the chockstones below the first rappel on the east face, just under the "Colorado Cot". We, however, wero caught above the Nest and covered in a deep blanket of wet snow. As soon as daylight allowed, we began a series of rappels off the face abandoning most of our equipment in a hasþ retreat. We reached the base of the rock about 600' below by 10:30 AM. By this time a foot of snow blanketed the desert and enshrouded Shiprock and the storm continued. For now, our major conoem was our own retreat from Shiprock but we began to realize that the Smith party might be trapped in a very precarious position it they indeed had reached the U-Notch for their bivouac and had not protected their retreat across the friction traverse with a fixed handline. As it tumed 223

225 out, the Smith party was in a mucfr more favorable position at this point but they still faced a desperate situation ahead as will be seen, Our fortunes picked up unbeknownst to us with the anival the night before of a second climbing party while we were in bivouac. An old climbing pal Reed Cundiff (Peru '67, 1s ascent of the SW Ridge of the Needle, etc.) and his climbing partner from Las Cruces arrived in a MÂ/ lntending their own climb of the rock the day the storm arrived. The six of us now teamed up to pursue what we had roason to believe could be a very serious rêscue emergency of the Smith party. Fortunately Reed had a VlÂ/ and with its rear engine weight and the five of us jumping on the bumper and pushing, we were able to work the vehicle through the 5 miles of deep snow to the Red Rock "highwa/ and then sped to the town of Shiprock freezing cold and mud-spatered. lmth four jammed inside the car two of us sat on top with our feet through the sun roof barely hanging on as the sleet and wet snow continued. A Navajo tribal cop soon stopped us but gave full cooperation when he leamed the details of our predicament. He escorted us into Shiprock where we took a motel room and called Los Alsmos for more LAMC help. We also called the Boulder Rescue Group and alerted them for standby in case we could not handle the job. Emie Anderson and Bill Gage of LAMC set out for Shiprock in a 4WD. ln the meantime, the tribal police drove Cundiff and partner to the Rock in a 4WD to reconnoitre. Cundiff reported difficulty in even reaching the top of the talus near the start of the route. He did not see signs of the Smith party though as things turned out they were within 500 of them at that point. Upon reporting his findings at the motel, Cundiff and pal returned to Albuquerque intending to return the next morning if'a full rescue attempt was made. That evening about 7:30 as the storm was beginning to abate and the temperature was dropping rapidly, Liska and Dauelsberg returned to the rock with Navajo Tribal Authority 4 WD's, radios, etc. hoping to make contact with the Smith party. They found Smith and Bullwandering dazedly near their vehicle disoriented and hypothermic. Smith was bleeding and both were hurt and shaken. They reported their party had fallen and they had to leave Andrews 150' above the "Cave Pitch' (the first pitch) in the Black Bowl near the Topp memorial plaque. Liska and Dauelsberg saw this as a relatively straightfonrard regcue and radioed the other two climbers still at the motel to come on out and to leave a message for Anderson and Gage when they reached $hiprock to also come to the base of the rock ASAP. Fortunately Anderson had accompanied us on our frequent climbs of the rock and knew the way. By 11 PM under clear, cold skies we were all gathered ready to attack the climþ with a Stokes litter, first aid kit, radios, lights, and essential climbing gear. lcy talus and snow hampered the way. Not knowing for sure what difficulties we might encounter, we called Los Alamos and another LAMC team of 5 fresh climbers set out for Shiprock at 2 AM Saturday morning. We also informed the Boulder Rescue Group of our progress but told them not to mobilize since things were stillwell under control. t turned out that Smith and Bull had left a 300' reepschnur on their last rappel to the base. We found this rope indispensible in allowing us to prussik up the difficult Cave Pitch and its now icy overhangs to the scene of the accident some 200' above the base of the rock. We reached Andrews around 2 AM, administered aid to his broken shoulder, loaded the hypothermicand pain-ridden victim in the litter and lowered him 224

226 over the overhangs to the base where he was man-hauled avery rough half mile over icy talus to the waiting vehicles. We tumed Andrew over to the off cials at 5 AM, about 6 hours afrer the rescuê team started up the rock. STATE OF THE VCTMS AND RESCUERS As everything settled down we learned that Smith and Bullhad been taken to Farmington before midnight on Friday evening for treatment. Smith had a broken nose, jaw and cheekbones and required stitches for a deep cut over his eye. Bull had bruised and battered ribs. Andrews arrived in Shiprock by 6 AM Saturday as he began going into shock. He was given intravenous glucose and then taken to Farmington where they found he had a fractured elbow, broken shoulder, cracked ribs, a concr. ssion, and frostbitten toes. He was treated and then flown back to Califomia. The reserve ["AMC rescue team arrived about 7 AM Saturday but were fortunately not needed. Finally, the Boulder Rescue Group was informed of the successful completion of the rescue of George Andrews. Then we all split for home. AFTERMATH AND DETALS OF THE ACCDENT As said earlier this was an important rescue though we didn't realize how critical until several of us retumed a week later to retrieve our gear and study the accident scene. Shiprock was still somewhat ice and snow covered but now quite climbable. Our team split up, part to retrieve gear left behind during our precipitous retreat the week before and the others to climþ the normal route to the point where the accident occurred and do a "forensic search for technical evidence of the accident. ìmlen our recovery team descended with the recovêred gear, a tribal policeman was waiting for us at the trailhead. He informed us that we were under anest as Shiprock had been officially closed to climbing immediately following the accident. ln fact, the entire Navajo reservation was now so banned. When we explained that we had been the rescue team and were retrieving gear he relented but still ordered us off the rock ASAP. Our second team now descended with all the evidence they had recovered and we left the area. ln piecing together the details of the accident itsell along with corespondence from the Smith group, we deduced that the Smith party had spent a miserable bivouac on Thursday night below the upper prussik pitch in the Rappel Gully with snow cascading down the sunounding rock faces on top of them. At 7 AM on Friday they left their bivouac and took 4 hours to complete the 75' prussik up to the Colorado Col using theéi only functional Jumar and one Hiebler ascender. They then completed the 120' rappel down the upper west face into the west gully and scrambled down to the grey basalt water gully where they continued their rappels on the 30C reepschnur anciored to a single piton. Here Smith rappelled first and made it down OK. Andrews followed þut afrer 100' the anchor pulled out and he fell another 100' down the gully and off the steeper bottoming cliff crashing into Smith and causing the bulk of Smith's injuries. ln the tumbling fallandrews also sufiered most of his injuries. Andrews had lost his helmet earlier that day and that may have been the cause of his concussion. lt was now 3 PM and still snowing. About this time Cundiff had reached his high point but was 225

227 unable to make contact with the Smith party. Now Bull was stranded above with only an old 120', 7116" white nylon "army surplus'mountain-lay rope of dubiot s and wellwom history. He drove in several pitons as a secure anchor and rappelled offfinding himself still almost 80 above the others at the end of this short line. Under Smiths direc{ions, he climbed 25' back up the gully and cut off two strands of his three stranded laid rope, giving him and extra 50 of line. He tied this extra length to the uncut third strand and continued down. Considering the skillwith wfrich Bull had managed this difficult maneuver (shades of Tony Kuz on the Eigerwand in 1936), it's a pity that as he neared the end of his 'rope' still 30' off the base, the uppermost single strand parted about 7 feet below the two-strand cut line. Down plummeted Bull to the base where he damaged his ribs by again oashing into poor Smith who broke his fall. The LAMC team who studied the accident scene found the uppermost strand to have partially melted against a sharp flake but also to have a single strand strength of only 350 pounds due to its age and wear condition. A new ropes single strand strength should have been about 1500 pounds. At this point, very late in the day, the injured pair of Smith and Bull administered what firsþaid they could to Andrews, re-anchored the reepschnur and finally rappelled to the base of Shiprock. Staggering back over the talus towards their vehicle they were fortuitously found by the Los Alamos climbers. Events then developed as described above. ln succeeding events George Andrews, a very big San Francisco Corporate Lawyer became a advocate of AMC for its rescue efforts. Meeting him years later in his huge law offices he expressed undying gratitude to our club and related that the Shiprock event was the highlight of his outdoor life. He died in Somehow the rescue was reported to higher officials and Dauelsberg and Liska were awarded with Documents of Commendation from then president Richard Nixon. At the time we reacted negatively to these awards due to the politicalclimate that existed at that time, but we have since come around to valuing these awards which now represent to us the finest spirit of selfless search and rescue efforts by willing volunteers. How these commendations ever came to us and who recommended them in the first place has never been ascertained. 226

255 Dear Don, ry 23 June, L9f2 think your note to Larry is superb. t should be published not only in the LAM Newsletter but it should also be submitted to Trail and Timber' line and/or Surnrnit. n addition, agree we should hqve a meeting of the trustees with the objective of formulating policy changes as you suggest. rrlfhile most of the necessary general principles are already spelled-out in the by-laws, specific additions are desirable. Rules must of necessity be as general as possible, but such things as trearly on-early off snowrrare certainly needed. This wonrt really help much of course, since rules written on paper are as lirnited in their effectiveness as are lectures when compared with experience. 'W'e need to practice and to emphasize a broader perspective of rnountaineering. trfreedom of the Hillsrt introduced rne to mountaineering and stil!, feel it is the finest available basis for philosophies and attitudes. 'We should cultivate and propagate that sort of attitudeand reinforce it by the trrewardst' we offer. can see now that the prorninence and popularity of our technical climbing school has had just the effect you describe: it has overemphasized technique and given the impression that technical skills, which can be easily and rapidly taught and acquired, are far more important than they really are and that they are a sufficient basis for successful and cornmendable rnountaineering. Suppose we change out'rclimbingltschool to a mountaineering school with ernphasis on the sorts of thing trlrothtt emphasizes: the ability to go safely wherever you wil the evaluation of weather, terrain, snow and rock; route finding and planning; survival, bivouac and rescue, etc. Not that we expect to irnpart the knowledge and understanding that cornes only from experience, but rather that our talking about such things rnay help thern to acquire the importance and attractiveness that we seern to have irnparted to the conquest of technical difficulties. As a corollary, our clirnbing schedule might emphasize objectives other than the tops of mountains and still retain Class D outings, eg. the inaccessible creeks along the Animas. think there is little we can do to change the odds or to sharpen judgernents in such situations as the Blanca or Robson avalanches. But by calling the attention of our rnerirbers, especially the newer and younger ones, to a different drurn-beat, we rnight just decrease the number of man-hours at risk. Even with unchanged probabilities, this should decrease the losses to society and to our public irnage. cc. Bell Campbell tr'ukushirna Margolin 254

Arqr rrhorfer-than-thourr and trr told you sorr tones that may ereep inùo my notes should be taken w'ith the fact thet ï ean out-do Don on n\y acctdent reeord; ï can count es many near-tragedies as ho ean in e shorter tlme. What ne have going for us ls that we, somehow, suwived these near-tragedi.ss and ean look baek on how ïe ïere dotng tn the past; presrmably we ere now wiser beeause of them and that may give us some privlledges as far ae offcring opinions on thlngs like thj.s. Ï coneur wlth the notes of Don end Ernie possibly due 1n part to tho fact that talkcd (and arguea) rrftn then at lengbh last week. The only thtng Ï would restate ts that therc is nothlng wrong, phllosophlcally, about rrclimbingtr as opposed to rtmountaineeringll that f s a metter of personal preferenee. Howevcr, r tron climbing ls emphasized, tho personrs ab1l1ty can far outstrip his Judgement for nany merry ycars and thatts vfierc the ph rstcal dangere 1ie. Minc cortalnly did and thatrs whlle not ( thougþt) emphasizing ttelimbtngrr too mueh. Unfortunatcly, the only swe way to butld up oxperienee and Judgement 6eens to be to actually go through whatever it takos i.n acctdents and what have you. f you live through it, you become an troldrt mountaineer. Be tha! as it nay, a subtlc shlft ln the attitude of the club rnay bs able to reduec somo of thc unneeesser1r rísks that arc taken 1n the elub aottvitl.es. At thts poíntr Ï eonfess that feel gutlty in not havlng takcn aetive part ín the club aettvitles so that, Ï eould have influeneed thc courso of events nore ( assumtng that rùat balieve is a tgood[ phtlosophy). Part of the reason for my staytng a$ ay es mueh as T haver as thlnk about it nowr Just may have to do ith the trarrofiênce" that Don has talked about cornbíned with a reluotance on my part to assert rn rself against tt (whieh must stem frorn the syndrome atlributed to Dave Brown and nenttoned by Ernle). Part of f.t, of eourse, is due to the faet that wasntt that sure of rny rrmountaineering t phllosophy botng any bettor Ln aq way than the rreltmbing'r phl-losophy; now thtnk that, apart fron any philosophical goodness, it 1s the method w?reroþ the ratio of the ratos at çhi"ch one aequires judgenent to ability is rnuch higher. Fínally, let me restate something thatts obvious to me. The amount of judgement requlred on snow and Lce far exceeds that required for roek. There is Just no comþerison. coupled with the fact that this ts not good snow country (for mountaineering), we are at a gyeat handiaap over a club i.n the northwest, for example. 259

261 LayW -- page 2. For the above reason, it is only natural that we place nore emphasis on cljmbing roeks. donrt for a moment advocate that we recluce the diffícul'by of our hard eli?nbg (although perhaps we should sereen the people more) but that somehow we should possibþ redireet (or widen) our emphasis. ï would be most glarl to holp you and the club in erðr weyo Sfncercly, tt lu' Andcrson BeL lska Margolln PS. / Áaæ rnu &ø, ûv oþ*^ îl ett/tó>ttd ^"tr- /4,?h f* /'*'4n lilet/' Ê. 260

Arrogance is a g,ood Ìrorð-G'bñís attltuae (in direet opposition to hunility) and it breeds overconfidenee. am very sure of this and çoulrl cite the fate of Ji n Madsen as e case in ãoint, Another case J.n point (althougþ f never knolr him as a clfunber) rnight be Marc Emerson. Ánother example i.s fron my own experience. T-n L966, made an aseent of L16g t Rtdge on Mt. Ralnier. we were a hastily assembled 5-man Þarty of móderate erperience (average erperience ca. $yæs, T would g.t"r"). The route Ís a long (10 mttes to the beglnning of the route ãnd about 12'OOO feet elevatton gaín) ahd strenuous one on the north side of the mountain on a steep rf-dge that ends at a short ice-clí-ff. Although considered to be harder than the standard routest it ínvolves only a few pitches of belaylng. t is extremely exposed for the full length of the ridge, nevertb.eless. tje had no real difficulty in reaching the top and felt t'hat it wes one of the nost rewarding of cllmbes T had ever done. 'hat irked me, however, r as the ettitude of the least experienced climber who repeatedly belittled the route beeause of the laek of rrtechnicalff skllls necessety.

267 Remarks on decision making. Dave Brown has suggested that the process of t""forrsible decision-making on a climb by a gtoup of scientists may be made ñlore difficult by the habit which scientists have of thinking for themselves rather than deferring to the opinion of an authority and also by their inclination to evaluate specific cases from available evidence (preferably including experirnental tests). A leader with an intuitive feeling against a given course of action will be reluctant to enforce it if he feels unable to rrprove it'r to colleagues with different inclinations, especially if they are his peers with comparable cornpetence. Given the psyohological pressure to reach an objective and not to "chicken-outrr, the odds are weighted in favor of accepting risks rather than adopting a conservative course of action and rnarginal decisions will be biased away frorn safety. Another aspect of the difficulty of decision making is given in G. W. Youngts rnagnificent story ta M èrnory of the Mischabletr - the relevant section is attached below. His point is'that in a loosely-knit group, a decision rnay appear to have been made when in point of fact the "decisionrr is merely implied by individual actions rather than being the explicit result of adequate consideration of alternatives and consequences. 266

The buttress slid us stealthily up, and our on ro rhe cliffß. The cfifêterreces drew us insidiously up and on. f soon forgot eny armospheric warnings in the exhilaration of dinging up smoorh facec after smooth facet of rock, and of crawling and hand-pressing up the disappointing shelves, lloped like desk-lids, which joined sreep ro sreep. was not concerned with 'stances,' st ch as would allow me to stop and anchor our rope.

Meanwhile, was only intent to keep o'.rr duer up to the tremendous p ce set by the trio ahead. ì*-'q There is nothing lulls a leader's judgemenr more fatally to sleep than Ë another party, or even a man ' off rhe rope,' climbing ahead of him. The task of setding whether or nor to proceed is aken from him. He Ë has only to think Ítow to pæs where another hæ already gone. f litde Ê J. and had been climbing by our caurious selves we should, think, i have begun to doubt much sooner whether we would ûnd ir wholesome i to descend all that we were grappling up so con-ûdently. As it wæ, i dthough â separete, we \^ ere no longer a responsible unit ; and tle strength of a climbing parry is its collective, selêcontained discretion. My own attention was bobbing ahead, concerned chiefly with the growing interval between myself anrl the speedv rhyråm of the rrio above me. They also were'probably in much rhe same case. The presence of a cheerfirl emeteur, similarþ out of touch with the unison and 'feeling' of their rope and rerding tin-cannily if always more distandy at their heels, may h ve had a good deal to say to Josef Lochmatter's pushing on, unril well beyond the time when his berter judgement would have perceived the risk of whar we were doing and ell that it threatened in rhe event of our retreer. r may well be so. But then again what wæ there, upward, downward, or across in the mountain world, whichjose.ç Franz, anci Ryan might nor justifiäbly have attempted, and confidentþ have faced æ â rerum? began to notice that the trio, rlotted up the diagcnal marhngs on the grey face above, were pausing from time to time, as if to wait for us. This spurred me on the more. About the same tirne that recording angel, sensarion, signalled to me thet rvas wrestling up the steepening walls and their lean-to rooß more awkwardly and slowly. Expèrience teaches us early to disdnguish between the causes that'may þrodoc. this feeling; and was able to assign it now to the fact that the class of diftìculry \ as getring beyond me, and nor ro a fluctuation in my own 'standard of thc day.' although â separete, we \^ ere no longer a responsible unit ; and tle Í Þ t 267

282 Lr/rlr,/72 LarTï t probably won't make it tonight because of a meeting at Mountain School on its possible closure. Here are my corunents on the proposal to create a rescue director(rd). 1) am all for the creation of such a post, 2) am agafnst the proposed way in which his votíng power is to be restricted at the board meetings. t is arnbiguous. Almost argr business of LAì' could be construed to have some connection with the activities relatlng to rescue. 3) One alternative is to have the RD be a trustee (without increaslng the nrmrber of tmstees, if necessary), see nothíng r,rrong wíth this at all-, and have not heard any good arguments against it. b) The other alternative, and the one might prefer, is to have the RD be independent of the board (except his selection, possíbly) somewhat like a city manager might be Índependent of the electorâl process. t can be argued that his one vote as a trustee isnrt going to carry that much r.reight. n fact, he might be much more effective from outside the board in getting support of the general menbership. Ïn summary, would say that we r^rant the post to be c reated but not as a half-breed trustee. The best alternative might be as an appointee with full blessingsof the trustees and with full freedom to conduct reseue activities and to ask help from the parent organiåatíon.

283 Latryt Thanks cornrnents: 18 July, 1972 for the "esu.tré of the rneeting missed. have a few The rescue group is certainly a nobel idea and would give a wider scope than our present affiliation with the LA operations. The present club rrìoneys are believe intended for use in connection with accidents that happen to club groups and so are not directly applicable. However an extension to less selfish use could certainly be enacted by the membership. (Parenthetically, see little connection between this activity and our current prirnary problem of preventing accidents, except that perhaps closer contact with the victims of other accidents rnight engender an attitude of greater conservatisrn. ) On E111àt proposals 1. An information coordínator would provide a focus for the inforrnation now required to be left in Los Alarnos during climbs,and if his identíty were known to persons upset by reports of an accident he would be able to pas s on such inforrnation as was relayed back to hirn. think in rnost cases there would be very little practical gain since rnost recovery operations are handled by the survivoqs ar{d.þy.'lhe profeqsional- rescue groups which they sumrnon, ' Z. disagree with the arbitrary lirnitation to two persons per rope. There are too rnan) instaneeq ín which ropes of three are desirable; eg. shortage of leaders. 3. Additional equiprnent should definitely be required. think there has been far too rnuch emphasis on traveling light on all of our trips. rrl-et the leader leadil is a principle to,î lirnited validity which can be overemphasized. think the present rules which emphasize group decisions are safer in the long run. Certainly the leader rnust have final authority to cut off bootless discussion and dissension. But the value of the 'rcollebtive judgernent of the party" during the processes prior to decision rnaking rnust not be downgraded. (Young rnakes this point vividly in his Mischable story. ) Ervryone in the party should be alert to signs of danger and should have opinions about the desirability of proceeding. These opinions should be heard. n terms of ultimate authority, agree the responsibility is the leade/s and also agree that the party should be required to follow his course and pace when the rnajor decisions are reached. would rnerely ernphasize the rnoderating influence of group decisions. personally think rrearly-on, early-offrr is of sufficôdntly basic irnportance to deserve incorporation as a specific rule. t is generally applicable to all clirnbs, not just snow, with the airn of courserving daylite in case of trouble, avoiding afternoon thunderstorrns, etc. agree that new directions can only be irnplernented in practice; people will do as we do not as we say. My prirnary point has been that we are selling technical clirnbing only and that the nurnber of rnan-days at risk would be reduced if we could, by exarnplp,,generate rnore enthusiasrn for less hazardous activities. 282

289 LOS næ()\rïror, /q.l â'vc)s Volume X No.8 Los Al mos, Ncw Mexico Tuesday, March 31, 1970 Pricc l0 cents Four Los Alamos climbers last weekend averted disaster-as' they took part in the all*ight rescue of an injured California mân on snow-covered ShiProck Peak. George Andrews of Menlo Park, Calif., had suffered a broken left arm, b okerl shoulder blade, several broken ribs, and a concussion in a fall of over 100 feet late that afternoon. Andrews, along with two other experienced mountain climbers, had started the ' clinib Thursday bur had" turned bacl( when the aiea was hit by a severe snowstorm. The party was attenipting a descent in violent winds and heavy snow when a piton pulled out and Andrews fell. His two companions, who had received minor injuries, left him on a ledge to seek the help of another party of climbers on the peak. Led by Don Liska and Larry Dauelsberg of Los Alamos, the other group had alsq spent the night on the peak; haviiig begun on Thursday to establish a new route, on the west face of the rock. Also in this party lvere two men from Las Cruces and Colorado Springs. The storm hit around midnight and lud dropped six inches of snow by morning. Because the Los Alamos group.s cars \ ere snowed in, Liska went to the town of Shiprock and called Ërnie Anderson of l s Alamos, asking him to bring a four+vheel drive vehicle. Liska also wanted more climbers, since the Colorado party was still up on tlte peak, so Anderson brought with him UNM freshman Bill Gage, a graduate of Los Alamos High. Anderson and Gage left at about 3 p.m., arriving in Shiprock at 9. The two members of the Colorado group had gotten down at 7 p.m. and, through a Navajo radio truck which Liska had had stationed at the bottomof the peak, notified the l s Alamos group that help was needed. At p.m., the,liska party-at a strength of six men with the'add.ition of Anderson ahd'gàge-staitêti'out "ifrfr:úgh the snow around the base of the rock on the rescue mission. Using a fixed rope left by tlre two members of the Colorado party, who had been taken to the hospital; Liska, Dauelsberg, Gage, and another man began up the icy cliff at midnight, carrying a stretcher. 288 Hill Climbers Mcrke Rescue After reaching the injured man at about a.m., Liska and Dauelsberg administered first aid to the victim, who had been alone on the snowcovered ledge for over l0 hours. \ryith the help of Anderson and the sixth man, who had climbed half way up the cliff, the group got the litter down and carried it most of the way to where the cars were parked. The men were then met by some vò,lu.nteers from 'SltfiilCk,' rriìro' hëlped- delivei the litter the rest of the way-finally getting Andrews into a vehicle and headed for the hospital at 6 a n. After receiving emergency treatment at the Farmington Hospital, Andrews was flown to the Stanford Medical Center at Palo Alto, Calif. Ernie A,nderson, who joined the group for the rescue, had much praise for the original four members of the s Alamos party; who he described as "skillful rugged climbers". Anderson stated a reminder that: thêse four men had spent the night on the rock, caught io, tlhe.blizzard,, had made.an ixtremely treacherous descent down the icy west face and u/ere miserably cold and'tired. That they rvent back up the snciwcovered 'peak after the injured man, hê said, "is a tremendous tribute to their ability and stamina",
