too late, the locals explained it to me one day that every year so many buckeyes must be sacrificed to the gorge gods so that life in slade may continue. It turns out that half moon is the prefered alter but the gods really don't car.

I camped near the top of Whistling arch once. We woke up to find a group of people walking through our campsite to rappel off. One of them had a cat on a leash. It was a pretty weird way to wake up.

you definitly can't camp on top of the arch w/out mass amounts of people walking by. I remember going up there one weekend to find a large group of bikini clad girls sunbathing up there, and while we were on the trail one went chasing after her dog with un teta popping out of her bikini top. That was the best trip to whistling arch ever :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Yeah, that is true and it wasn't a big deal or anything.

BCombs, not sure where the cat ended up, but we did see a few hawks that morning and couldn't help but think...

isn't sport rappelling not only stupid but also now prohibited in the National Forest?
climbing is dumb
