p.s. mike, nice meeting you at martha - who was your shirtless leader again?
Shirtless leader was named Rob, who is a damned strong hiker for a guy approaching 60 (or any age for that matter). Here he is - as well as my wife - at your referenced "hashpipe" lake. Likewise, I was unaware of a register there...something to look for on a future visit.

(I'll spare you the photo of him sunbathing in his speedo at our near-Martha camp...)

Your about 15 feet from the register in that photo. That small patch of dirt to the left is the only camp.

The two notches with snow on the far left are the ones I came down. The one on the right is the one I thought I would die in.

Weird red metamorphic rock on the shelf between Goddard creek area and Ionian Basin. This is part of a crimson seam that runs vertically up the wall of the shelf. This area is a jumbled, twisted geological wonderland. August 2012.
i saw some pink veins in that region.... wonder how close my patch was to your patch?

Probably the same vein. You can see it from 500 yards.
