What may you estimate? Which direction have they decided for Spirit?
http://www.greuti.ch/spirit/which_route.jpg Thanks Phil for this map! I put my money on 3. This post has been edited by Tman: Jun 2 2005, 07:59 PM -------------------- |

Well, I hope it is not back down the hill the way they came! Though I note you did not number that route, just put a smiley face there

Number 3 gets my vote.

I think you're right - looks like they're making for the top by going to the left of the area Spirit tried to climb before they noticed Methusela.

My inclination is like Doug's: 2.75 Those bluffs look interesting and it would be easier to start high and work down. Then on to Homeplate!

'Onward and Upward!'
Never the word Ultreya made so much sense... Here's my first guess on a probable date for the summit's takeover. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v352/ustrax/ascension1.jpg -------------------- "Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied, "If you seek for Eldorado!"
