These photos and history are awesome... Glad I stumbled upon it.

I'm currently in New Paltz, working on a Gunks climbing documentary and am looking for archival film and photos! If any of you are willing to help out please let me know. Also, any tips or folks I should talk to, that is also a tremendous help.

Cheers,

gunks bump with thanks to happiegrrrl for making the place understandable and user-friendly, and also her friend jared, for taking me & nick under his wing in lost city. i won't try to add anything here but gratitude for a look at a great area with a rich tradition, and also appreciation for the mohonk preserve and its unique approach to use and management.

i climbed the week before at devil's lake--two very different kinds of quartzite. the fun of the gunks lies in those spectacular overhangs and routefinding your way over them. pick a line and leave the guidebook behind. if you need a hint, look for old iron.

Brandon- You have to drive over and check it out!

It will blow your mind how friendly the climbing is if beyond intimidating at first.

Climb until you run out of something because it won't be routes.

Just how is it, exactly, that these places where I'm supposed to go take a look-see (GLEE, it does look awesome!) just seem to keep magically appearing on the first page of the Forum...starting to think I may just be being led around by the...er...nose.

All with a click of the Magic Mouse...

I really need to index this stuff and Chris has asked me to try and do so.

How do you make High E better? With a picnic!

Considering the recent fecal catastrophes that have driven people from that very ledge, I'm not sure that promoting al fresco dining is wise. There's a fine line between picnicing and poopnicing, and if we end up with High Indigestion instead of High Exposure, there will be no winners.

That said, it looks yummy.

Why would anyone poop on that ledge? It's such a nice straight shot to the ground if one's heiney hangs over Double-Issima!
