A new, looong pitch through the wingate led to a forced dark-time descent and prevented a proper kayenta-top summit survey so we went back the next day and took the easy way up. It appears that another one has bitten the dust, fellers.

Great thread!!
I always manage to miss the classic ones.
Had read about that register signed in blood on Black Kaweah, when I was about to go out and climb it I had seen somebody post that the book was gone and there was a copy of it left, but when I got there in 2013 it was gone, no trace of it. :(

Brave Cowboy! That double-nail anchor looks so awesome. Are those 20 penny nails = 4" long?

naw Fritz they're healthy 3/8 x 10 potmetal timberspikes. all the rage these days, I hear. ;-). nailstacking in fissile siltstone you can almost always nail 'em you just never know when you're gonna get f*#ked.
all of the registers that I've left atop new summits recently have included some iteration of the famous pussy proclamation for our young men's sexual education.

Red Shirt is a popular 1000 foot long 5.8 on Yamnuska. It was put up in 1961.
I first did it in 1978 and read through the register hanging on the 4th(?) pitch.
Names like:
Fritz Weisner
Tony Hiebler
Don Whillans
Joe Brown
and many more
Register was gone in 1980
