Here is the write up for Monkeyfinger.

Stopped through Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, thank you Bill Clinton.

We attempted to find the famous "Wave" rock formation, but found other cool rocks instead.

Naturally Arching

Now we are visiting a friend at The Big Ditch, washing our clothes and showering off the accumulated filth of red sand and sweat.

Too funny on the arch above the baby arch - does she get in that position unassisted? I'd need a crane!
I know how good a shower feels after a day or two of climbing so yours must have been heavenly!
Patiently awaiting the next batch

Adam, is that a photo of the Grand Canyon, or a painting?

Brad Young · « **Reply #265 on:** December 05, 2012, 06:33:29 PM »

Here's a photo from the 1970s. It was sent to me by a well known Pinns climber (I'm posting it with his permission). Of the three climbers in the photo, I know only the one on the right.

It looks like the West Side campground to me (where we park now was a campground then).

Who is it (and who's the coed in the background)?

Definitely tell it's West Side (see the rock formation behind the climbers).

Parking lot. Though it appears to be base material (aka dirt).

Don't know the climbers, but I sure like their boots. Raichles?

Great pic!

Brad Young · « **Reply #267 on:** December 05, 2012, 07:00:14 PM »

And the knickers on the one on the right.

I'm disappointed in you though, I thought you'd guess who it is right away.

Nope. but most of us on here have climbed with him.

The guy in the middle reminds me of one of my old geology profs and the dude on the left is Errol Flynn!

Brad Young · « **Reply #272 on:** December 05, 2012, 09:57:40 PM »

It isn't Errol. Here's part of the email it came with (and it should give it away):

"It was taken early in the summer of 1978, I believe. Pictured are Mike Russell, Bill (Bad Bolts) Hunt and myself. I'm pretty sure the knicks were put out by REI at that time."

You're harshin' my mellow bro'!

This is what I was doin' with rope in Ohio during the early 70's

yeah, Bad mamma jamma Bob?

waldo · « **Reply #275 on:** December 06, 2012, 07:44:05 AM »

The guy on the right is me. Aside from the knicks, Brad was kind not to mention the "Go Climb a Rock" tee shirt from YSM. Tacky.

Wow! Jon looks just like you did!

No way I would have recognized you though.

Great pic-

Yeah, I probably wouldn't have recognized Bob either if he had not told me it was him: I don't think I've ever seen him in other than jeans and that blue button-up shirt with tiny white stripes.

Brad Young · « **Reply #278 on:** December 06, 2012, 10:40:05 AM »

J.C. have you got any other shots like that with long, bushy hair?

mungeclimber · « **Reply #279 on:** December 06, 2012, 10:56:04 AM »

So who is the co-ed?
