"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Southwest RidgeLittle did Gimpilator know that I had summited Goat Peak via the southwest ridge only five days earlier than his visit. We each had figured out the same route... but the heat in-between our visits melted many of my tracks away so he did not know anyone else had tried the same approach. I really enjoyed this route and peak.
In fact, I spotted and reported a fire to the Methow Valley Ranger Station from the summit, proving that this is a great destination to spot fire outbreaks. Unfortunately, I later discovered that this is also the first year that a full-time lookout will not be stationed atop Goat Peak; "Lightning Bill" had to find new employment atop Mount Leecher. :-(
