Fat ones, skinny ones, smooth ones, rough ones.
Dykes with protrusions, inset whatever.

One of my favorite features to climb, dykes can be so aesthetic.

Show me your favorite dykes!











And lets keep it PC here please people!!

Somehow I doubt this one has been climbed. It is +/- 2 miles NE of Forrester Pass.

Writers of mysteries like Navratilova are a dime a dozen.
Total Zone, Killer Instinct, Breaking Point.

Players of tennis like Navratilova are like Klondike Gold, found in no other place but Wimbledon.

Gary- Bad!!!


U didn't read the OP, this is on topic. Next thing you know there's gonna be a brawl & Dr F & Norton & the whole political gangbang crew will be here writing 1000 word posts about everything from healthcare to Obama to A & fukkin E & yelling at each other.


Not that there is anything wrong with that but this is attempting to be a climbing thread on a climbers website.

No more please!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sill_(geology);

For REIlly, not that I dint have to look this up to be certain I recalled the silly word. Mount Sill is named elsewise, for some dude.

And desert polish chickenhaids don't really make it, not here in my geology text.

But I'm just layin' out the words--and it's not dyke, it's dike, unless you say it is.

I don't mean to intrude.

I haven't got any pictures of it, but Chasing Rainbows (where the Black Dyke cuts through the Malemute) has some fine dyke hiking. And fine climbing in general.
