mountaineering.

Not entirely supprised with your comment about
not having a death wish to climb.
In reality, climbers do not have a death wish, far
from it, more of a lust for life in my experience.
Rock climbing scores quite low on the fatalities
scale compared to many other seemingly less
hazardous sports.
The whole ethos of climbing is built around safety
and whilst there are extremists as in most sports,
climbing for most is a relatively safe sport.

Oh and by the way.... there have been just
five fatalities on Devils Tower since 1937.
Three of them whilst rappelling on the way down.wow

Must be some really old intel?!
more than 15 have died there since the beginning of 2000.
when I lived in Rapid city, it always came across our local news,, and 3 fell and died one day when I was there.

I think they may not want it to be well known knowledge so as not to scare off tourist.
big business there!!!
oh well.
the whole state is just Beautiful,
so are the black hills in South Dakota and Custer state park.

Has there ever been anyone killed? Yes, there have been five climbing fatalities since 1937. Three of these fatalities occurred while descending (rappelling) the Tower.

Source- National Park Service, US Dept of the Interior.

Maybe your right and they want to 'muddle' the figuresdunno

But in the UK our National Park figures in a matter of this
nature would be accurate.

Would love to visit the area though.thumbs up

exploration of Botanic gardens .... local landscapes ... trying to find some bizzare plants to bring back home.


Culture/History: I do like to go into the small vilages and towns ... it is where the real Culture and History can be discovered. Big Cities are for tourists ... they do not give real feel and understanding of History. They made for tourist's attraction. They are just a show bussiness. barf

You can't see it in the picture, but on the south side there is still part of an old wooden ladder that was built all the way to the top.

Bro- I was just trying to share a park with you, All I can tell you is what I know from living there,
I can't tell you their reasoning for not giving factual info.

I would be inclined to believe the figures you have
quoted rasgumby.
I must admit, when i read that report i was suprised,
5 fatalities over such a long time in a large climbing
area as that seems suspiciously low.
Anyway, thanks for the info, maybe i will make it there
one day.thumbs up





cheers
