    Morning Star Peak, Vega Tower, Marvin's

    AAC Publications Morning Star Peak, Vega Tower, Marvin's Ear Washington, North Cascades During the Fourth of July weekend, a planned climb on Vesper Peak (6,214’) turned into an alpine picnic due to my wife Shelia experiencing first-trimester morning sickness. But another piece of rock had caught my attention during our hike over Headlee Pass: Vega Tower (5,480’), a sub-summit on the north ridge of Morning Star Peak (6,020’). [Editor’s note: Vega Tower is looker’s right of Vegan Tower, another sub-summit along the ridge that’s home to the popular route Mile High Club (see AAJ 2016)] Vega had one technical route listed in the Beckey guide on its western aspect, called Starshot Ridge (5.8), said to have been established by Jerome Eberharter and Reese Martin in 1981. Martin passed away in 2004, but I was able to contact Eberharter, who said he was actually down in Yosemite during that time and wasn’t Martin’s partner for Starshot. As best I could tell, Starshot stayed to the right on blockier terrain, but the aesthetic west ridge proper appeared to be unclimbed. A couple of weeks later, I returned with Imran Rahman. In a gully right of our intended line we thrutched our way through cedars and kicked our approach shoes into matted heather needles to a ridgeline notch, where an exposed low-fifth-class pitch brought us to the top. We rapped the crest, establishing the anchors and route line from the top down while friends hollered in the mist on the neighboring Mile High Club.

    Geologic Map of the North Cascade Range, Washington by Ralph A

    Prepared in cooperation with Washington State Division of Geology and Earth Resources, U.S. National Park Service, and U.S. Forest Service Geologic Map of the North Cascade Range, Washington By Ralph A. Haugerud and Rowland W. Tabor Nontechnical pamphlet to accompany Scientific Investigations Map 2940 Looking south from the North Klawatti Glacier [Mbse]. In the right foreground, the glacier breaks into a heavily crevassed icefall where it descends steeply. Rock in the foreground knob is Eldorado Orthogneiss (unit TKgo), a 90 million-year-old stitching pluton, which here includes numerous dikes of light- colored pegmatite. Mount Buckner on the left skyline and Mount Forbidden hidden in clouds are also eroded from the Eldorado Orthogneiss (photographed in 1987). 2009 U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey CONTENTS Introduction.....................................................................................................................................................1 Using this report ....................................................................................................................................1 Map preparation ...................................................................................................................................1 Major sources of new data .................................................................................................................1 Acknowledgments ................................................................................................................................2

    Human Adaptation in the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains by George Sabo III, Ann M. Early, Jerome C. Rose, Barbara A. Burnett, Louis Vogele, Jr., and James P. Harcourt Prepared by the Arkansas Archeological Survey Fayetteville, Arkansas 1990 Arkansas Archeological Survey Fayetteville, Arkansas 72702 First Printing, 1988; Second Printing, 1990, by the Arkansas Department of Corrections, Wrightsville Third Printing, 1998, by University of Arkansas Printing Services Forth Printing, 2003, by University of Arkansas Printing Services Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 90-80912 ii ABSTRACT This overview provides a synthesis of the current state of knowledge concerning archeological resources in the Ozark Mountain—Arkansas River—Ouachita Mountain subregion of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Southwest Division. Basic information on the environment of the study area is provided, followed by a review of the history of archeological research in the region. Prehistoric culture history is then reviewed according to the conventional framework of Paleo-Indian, Archaic, Woodland, and Mississippi time periods. Historic Na- tive American, European, and American settlement history is also considered. The history of bioarcheological research in the region is summarized, and a suggested framework for future bioarcheological investigations is provided. Bioarcheological data pertaining to the Archaic, Woodland, and Mississippi periods are then reviewed and several interpretations are made. The overview concludes with a synthesis of the archeological and bioarcheological data and interpretations in terms of four prehistoric and five historic period adaptation types. The basic features of each adaptation are identified, along with specification of important data gaps and signifi- cant research questions.

Forest Service United States Department of Pacific Agriculture Northwest Region Cover Photo credits: After a month of low snow levels that hovered mostly between 2 and 4000 feet and 100-120 inches of snowfall, the April Fool‘s rain event and associated warming that began on March 30th and extended into April 1st produced freezing levels reaching 6-8000 feet in the central WA Cascades and 2-day rainfall totals ranging up to 5 to 7 inches near Stevens and Snoqualmie Passes. A very significant avalanche cycle resulted in the Pacific Northwest, including 6-10 foot slabs releasing from control within the Crystal Mt ski area, 10-20 ft. natural slabs on the higher elevation east slopes of Mt Hood, and these large wet slabs that originated in the Old Faithful slide paths and blocked the US-2 highway corridor at Stevens Pass. The slides included both controlled and natural releases which damaged a blower and closed the highway for much of the day. In response to the anticipated warming and increasingly heavy precipitation, the NWAC had issued avalanche watches and warnings that began on the 28th of March and culminated on the 30th and 31st when extreme danger was forecast above about 4000 feet.
