Death Valley - Forge/Shoestring - February 23, 2008
 |
|
Mid-canyon, we came upon a band of lovely white quartzite. Creamy.
|
|
 |
|
Interesting rock. Bunch of rappels. We built a lot of cairns (surprise!).
|
|
 |
|
And into the Pink Granite. Yeah, the rock is better than it looks, at least at the TOP of the raps.
|
|
 |
| A rappel, in context.
|
|
 |
|
We found some interesting evidence of up-climbing on the last couple-a drops, then this 'plaque' at the top of the fan. Courtney playing puff-daddy!

Sittin' around the campfire.

Short version: "Then we went home".
