JonBradfordvery cool.

Voted 10/10

nice historic sidenote on the rarity of visits on some of the Gore Mountains. Congratulations on visiting such an obscure summit.

Thanks. I also ascended F and G via the Ripsaw Ridge. Those summits will be added soon.

That very cool register is enough reason to visit it! It's great when you can find an old register and hold pages of history in your hands. I felt very lucky to find a Sierra Peak a few summers ago that had several Norman Clyde signatures in the register.

That finger looks like it's been around since '48 too. :-)

I wish I would have photographed all 4 pages. I took a photo of the last but boneheadedly not the first.

Indeed congratulations and well done on the photos, page & route. Awesome stuff. This history stuff is cool, too.

Think about what that register has seen in 55 years! That's 55 winters. How many near-misses from lightning? How many glorious sunrises/sunsets? Excuse me while I wax poetic...
