It looks good, and it's good to see that you've done some climbing on it. If you add at least one route page, this will be a truly excellent page.
The route page is great! A lot of times pages for such well known peaks are added by people who have never climbed them, and possibly never seen them. Having the page added by somebody who has climbed it for themselves and took many excellent pictures to document the trip adds a lot of legitimacy to the site. Thanks!
Thanks. I've added the NE Ridge since you commented. I've only done the Kain route once and don't have enough photos (or a good anough memory) to justify trying to write that one up. I hope someone takes it on - it's a fun route.
Close enough. They're from 5 trips -- every other year, from '84 to '92. My son will be 10 next summer. I'm tempted to drag him there and maybe coax him up the Class 3-4 (but loose) route on Crescent Spire.
A great page with excellent photos. I love your picture captions which are very descriptive. I'm not sure but you may have fallen into the old SP trap: if you let your pictures be shrunk by SP they'll get a little blurry. You get better results if you pre-shrink, apply sharpening and then post them.
Also a signature picture might be useful (in edit mode there is a form field in which you can insert the picture number.

Untitled CommentIt's about time someone put a page up for this famous North American landmark. Thumbs up.

Untitled CommentI also was wondering if this peak would be added. Hopefully someone can add Snowpatch Spire!

Untitled CommentGreat page! I have a friend who has spent a lot of time in both the Himalaya and the Purcells. He prefers the Purcells. I can see why.

Untitled CommentGood page.
I'm guessing your photos are from the early to mid '80's?
