Re: [d_goldsmith] More from Baffin
That's the mountian at the end of Sellim island in Scott inlet. It's the tip of the peninsala that forms a great bay. It holds one of the niceest camp sites around. It's one of the traditional camp sites of the Inuet. Before the goverment decided to concentrate them into towns for there own good they used to live a simi nomadic life stile moveing from seasonal camps. Now they are stuck in a town a hundred miles from the game. Since the world decided that seal fur was some how evil and decided that no one else should ever be able to buy it eather they passed laws destroying the fur trade. Now they have no way to pay the cash money to suport there snowmobills and can no longer suport there families. There is nolonger any type of economy and the traditional skills are disapearing not being passed on. but thats enough of a tiraid, stepping off the soap box.
I'm trying to remember how tall it is. I want to say it's in the 4000 ft range. That is the out faceing wall in the fiord. The back side is far less steep. You wouldn't guess the out side would be so spectacular. In truth it's not the best wall around You might be able to find a nice exit point in the middle of that hollow on the face where you could get going. I don't think you could out track that first big ledge with out a wing suit. Honestly I included it here as just a pritty picture of what the seanery is like up there. There are much nicer walls around. By the way, to the best of my knowlage it has never been climbed. There are good odds that not only has it never been jumped but that no human being has ever sat foot on top of it. But that's not unusual for up there.
