Other Directors As the new NCCC president, I really am standing on the shoulders of giants—from the Zaleskys to the Mannings; from the Goldsworthys to the Dyers, and all of the Bruce Barnbaum board members, and indeed, members of the NCCC past and present. I am aware of the deep and rich history of the NCCC, and will endeavor to uphold the integrity Polly Dyer and purposefulness of this organization. We’re here not to make money or gain fame; we’re here to protect one of the most amazing landscapes on Planet Earth. Philip Fenner A native of Washington, my personal connection with the North Cascades began Dave Fluharty in June of 1983 with a climb of Del Campo peak (see page 10). Since then, I have summited more than 70 times in the North Cascades, and I’ve come to find that Anders Forsgaard being in a place, experiencing and understanding the landscape is far more reward- ing than getting to the top of a mountain. More important, I became aware early on Karl Forsgaard that there was no balance to the land use, with an emphasis on resource extraction. I was shocked to find roads and clearcuts right up to the headwaters of nearly every Ed Henderson drainage. Where there wasn’t timber extraction, there were mining tailings continu- Dave LeBlanc ing to pollute streams and rivers. It was no mystery to me why salmon runs were de- clining. Thus, through direct exposure and experience with the landscape, I became Rick McGuire an active conservationist. I believe one of our biggest challenges is getting people aware of and engaged Thom Peters in understanding, exploring and caring for our North Cascades. Too often people Thom Schroeder think of the North Cascades as something distant—apart from us—when in reality those mountains literally provide for our lives and livelihoods in the most direct sense. From the rivers that power our modern lives to the food we eat, from the fruit Advisors orchards to fisheries and recreation, we are inextricably linked to our Cascades. In this era of “smart” phones and virtual reality, we must get people to participate Charles Ehlert in the physical world, the one with real consequences for actions and inactions. I used to assume North Cascades National Park, the Glacier Peak Wilderness Area Kevin Geraghty and similar protected lands came about through common sense—I took for granted Fayette Krause these protected lands as “the way things are”. Thanks to the NCCC, I have come to find these glorious places are protected Dave LeBlanc though incredibly hard work, dedication and perseverance by people just like you and me. I must admit I am a bit daunted by the prospect of following in the foot- Betty Manning steps of all of the conservation greats who have been a part of the NCCC, but I take this presidency very seriously and will do everything in my power to continue the Laura Zalesky NCCC’s focus on preservation of the landscape for the sake of all living things that depend on a healthy ecosystem. I am humbled and thankful for the opportunity to lead the North Cascades Conservation Council.

    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR TO ACCOMPANY MAP I-1963 U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY GEOLOGIC MAP OF THE SKYKOMISH RIVER 30- BY 60 MINUTE QUADRANGLE, WASHINGTON By R.W. Tabor, V.A. Frizzell, Jr., D.B. Booth, R.B. Waitt, J.T. Whetten, and R.E. Zartman INTRODUCTION From the eastern-most edges of suburban Seattle, the Skykomish River quadrangle stretches east across the low rolling hills and broad river valleys of the Puget Lowland, across the forested foothills of the North Cascades, and across high meadowlands to the bare rock peaks of the Cascade crest. The quadrangle straddles parts of two major river systems, the Skykomish and the Snoqualmie Rivers, which drain westward from the mountains to the lowlands (figs. 1 and 2). In the late 19th Century mineral deposits were discovered in the Monte Cristo, Silver Creek and the Index mining districts within the Skykomish River quadrangle. Soon after came the geologists: Spurr (1901) studied base- and precious- metal deposits in the Monte Cristo district and Weaver (1912a) and Smith (1915, 1916, 1917) in the Index district. General geologic mapping was begun by Oles (1956), Galster (1956), and Yeats (1958a) who mapped many of the essential features recognized today. Areas in which additional studies have been undertaken are shown on figure 3. Our work in the Skykomish River quadrangle, the northwest quadrant of the Wenatchee 1° by 2° quadrangle, began in 1975 and is part of a larger mapping project covering the Wenatchee quadrangle (fig. 1). Tabor, Frizzell, Whetten, and Booth have primary responsibility for bedrock mapping and compilation.

  • 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.
