I've been searching but can't find them... any one have them? I've been wanting to see what it looks like from "Google Maps Satellite Imagery: http://maps.google.com/ "...

I was hoping for GPS coords for the site of the event today! I have access to many aerials of Oklahoma.

Harley,

Sorry I can't help you, but buddy, that's a cool find. I'll be jerkin with this thing for hours! Thanks.

P.S. It might be posible to pinpoint by sight.

Look for it around here, I think.

Zoom in and scroll to the right.

Funny, Roxie and I both thought about marking waypoints AFTER we got back down LB. We had talked about marking the path from bottom to top so we could chart the elevation change vs. distance(also so we could see where she'd piddled on the way up).

I can see my house from here!

I wonder how many times it refreshes. Mabye I can see when I park the Hummer outside.

Better yet we can make a rock sign in Moab.

Harley 06-27-2005 02:04 AM

It doesn't refresh... the photos are fairly recent, though, my next door neighbor's Tahoe is in the drive on my home address..

Nice find, Paragon.

Lion's Back is the fin in the (horrible) rectangle.
A is the little shack where you pay your $10 to drive it or $ 2 bucks to walk it.(I didn't ask about peeing at the base of it.)

B is the base(launching pad) where you've got to nut up and climb the blackened 45 degree+ ramp.(Most bladders empty involuntarily here- which is why I took a precautionary wizz beforehand)

C is approximately where the carcass of the wrecked Toyota resides.

D is where Team Pewter Power turned around, celebrated and started back down.

Uh ohhhh. Was that pic taken when you were at work?



Damn, just looking at the topo of that thing is making my hands sweat.

Take the road to the east before you get to the parking lot Alec mention and there is another rock with what looks like rubber on top on the inside of the curve. Any one know what that is?

Harley 06-27-2005 02:19 AM

now that is some cool ****... I'm ready for October... the wife is interested....

HaH!! As long as it's not PEWTER>>>>

Harley 06-27-2005 02:21 AM

Wait, I take that back, I'm Pewter, too....



KenP 06-27-2005 02:27 AM

Looks flat as a pancake. I've got to show this to the wife. She'll definitely let me climb it now.

That's really cool following it.

DRTYFN 06-27-2005 02:37 AM

Ok, I found Black Hole. Was it before or after Hell's Gate & the Escalator?
