Midway on Castle Rock

We managed one route inbetween rain and wind on Monday. Plus we phone in the accident we "heard" then saw from Loger's Ledge. Note the black smear on road. Interesting to call in, "I'm climbing on Castle Rock, but I am reporting a car accident, not climbing..." New brewry in Leavenworth that is noteworthy. It's about time to get into the local beer business in a "German" town. Several choice, two we tested were excellent. Hat's off to the newbie in town.

No river for the cars, looked like an old pick up rear ended a van...maybe turning into the parking lot...did not see it happened, but very loud collision. It took a while to get State Patrol and tow trucks there.

So... the beer was better than the climbing?
