Mesa Camp

There is climbing next to Edward's Mesa, The Duolith and The Mole are adjacent to it, but the camping is extraordinary and secluded. The Mesa is a wonderful and uniquely beautiful place to spend a couple of days when you are visiting the Enchantments. Here is a small alcove where we were able to pitch our tent [Eric's Stephenson 3R]; the site is completely surrounded by small larches. On one side is a several hundred-foot drop to Hook Creek (our access route) and the Mole group and on the other side are the meadows of Edward's Mesa. Photo taken August 1979.

Nicely framed.

That week was some of our best climbing. Not bad, considering how the weather started. You realize that was almost 30 years ago? Jeez, you're old!

Re: Nicely framed.

Still kickin', the bad part is my hair won't grow where I want it to! I think that was one of our finest campsites. Great tent too.

Went running in the Kettles today, 9-1/2 miles, some snow on the ground. Thought I would break-in my new runners, my feet were throbbing by the end of the run. When ya gonna be able to come out and play?
