Re: Is it too late in the game

Very funny. Not a bad name though. The way a lot of the North Cascades peaks have been named, it would hardly be noticed.



I got to take part in a peak-naming exercise last week after four of us made the first winter ascent and maybe first ever climbing ascent of an obscure little piece of nothing of barely 4000 ft. We named it Lahul (an indian word referencing a game played with disks). A nearby mountain that we also made a first winter ascent of (though not first ever ascent) was already named Slahal--a game played with sticks (bones). Don't ask me how these games were played. I have no idea.
