I have placed some fotos on the webpage. I also have update links to the National Park Service and the information on permits and weather conditions.
I have listed various Air Taxi services addresses and phone numbers and email address and webpage addresses. I also have listed guide companies that guide in Denali National Park.
Hope this helps - I have been gone in the Middle East for the better part of the last year with no web access.
People who climb routes like the infinite spur - with something like less than 7-8 ascents total since the first ascent don't frequent summitpost.org in general. the page was up for adoption a while back and since i had sat across from the infinite spur - climbing with a guy who shaved 5 days off of the previous fastest ascent and did it in 25 hours - i used his discription of the route.
beta on the mountain itself. The factual info you've got: places, names, numbers etc. are superb but surprisingly little information on the mountain itself.
What about weather, more history, accidents, links to other trip reports or off-site sources, route(s) or general dangers/warnings about the mountain itself? Foraker is not a mountain to be taken lightly.
Keep working on this page. You've got it going in the right direction!! Do it some justice! I'm eyeing a trip in 2009.
Several of the guides you list are Denali only guides so why bother unless to take up space? I agree with Kiefer that the foundation is in place but I still don't have enough info to really go forth and climb. Not linking all the websites is a pain. Cheers!

Untitled CommentSomething should probably be done with this page. It's feeling lonely.
(edit) Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, I love your changes! Thanks a lot!

Untitled CommentI wish there was more description about the individual routes, possibly some links. Hope others will share some experience after season 2005. Thanks

Untitled CommentA good page. That's some amazing red tape...

Have you climbed the route?This is one of those routes that should probably be written by someone who has actually climbed it.
