Cintune, what is that object in your Photo?
Is the engraving from Little Mother on the Morderberg?

It's a rustic Appalachian sushi boat....er...hanging from the porch rafters until it was needed, later on that evening.

>Is the engraving from Little Mother on the Morderberg?

Don't think so; I found it awhile back with no identification,pretty sure it's a pic of Henriette d'Angeville, the first gal to summit Mt. Blanc. Not 100% on that, but I can't think of anyone else it might reasonably be.

This thread is a real treat to come back to every few hours.

Roy once again you initiate a thread that typifies what this forum is all about. Mountain sports, and the lifestyles that come from them, provide us with the experiences that, define us and fulfill our lives. We are a fortunate bunch. Everyone of us should spend as much time in the mountains as possible.

In the spirit of sharing the fun.

Here's a couple seminal shots, personal favorites,
Which hang deep in my memory as archetypal celebration of mountain & soul:


Leif Patterson, "celebrating the site of green grass at Urdukas" just moments [Edit: "months"] before he would die,
Galen Rowell's photo from "In the Throne Room of the Mountain Gods"

from Desnivel


And from Mineral's recent post of Ned Gillette:

AKDog & myself in '74,
It was his idea to start climbing.
I was skeptical, & little did I know, about that time, Hot Henry was wearing much the same hat:



I'd hardly grown into my feet:



And a reprise photo of us at the end of '06:

Great Thread by the way.

I'm wondering that myself Feelio.
I pulled that statement from an AAC review:
http://books.google.com/books?id=SIw69wFOszEC&pg=RA1-PA45&lpg=RA1-PA45&dq=galen+rowell+leif+patterson&source=web&ots=IPKibDGt4N&sig=PEajNE2SBkqQOZTBWIbsu0wyJdU

It actually says "months" not moments; makes more sense.
