There is a sign (shown in several photos), but it says "Mt Yale" (not "Delaney Creek"). This is the correct turnoff. Hikers should be careful not to leave the trail before this sign or they will end up bushwacking and eroding a steep vegetated gully. Also, the main page refers to the route as the Southwest Slopes (same name Roach uses), but the Routes section lists it as Southwest Ridge. The naming inconsistency is far less important than the signage info.
I have found two items you refer to on the main page. I’m needing further feedback to resolve this issue correctly.
First) Southwest Ridge-Southwest Slopes. What would you like me to change it too, Roaches way or Kane’s way???? I will do whatever you would like.
Second) Mt Yale TH-Delaney Creek TH. All of the guide books I’m aware of, including Kane’s route page call it out as the “Delaney Creek TH”. Should we rewrite the books here and go our own way. Again I will do whatever pleases you.
Finally, after reading all of the info presented, “this sign” is actually on the trail a few miles up from the trailhead. I think this is more of an issue with the actual "route" and not the front page itself. I am not the maintainer of the route info, nor can I change it. I’m also unable to post any images on the main page. Since they are already posted on Kane’s route page. If you post another image I will gladly import onto the main page. I can also post the dialogue between Kane and you on the main page if you would like.
I do remember this sign when I hiked Yale a few years back, and your concerns are valid, but if you look at what the main pages heading is “getting to the trailheads” that is it, trailheads only and not a route description. The route itself is what Kane has posted. It looks like Kane has been very attentive in this matter and that’s great, but how much dose this really affect the main page.
Giving me a 0 star rating for this was inappropriate. You are being terribly critical and unfair.
Please tell me how to proceed in this matter, because I’m still confused.
