Devil's Hole and the old railroad - 12 April 08

Had a total of 4 vehicles - Mr R2FJ (Josh) and Miss R2FJ (Heidi) in there FJC, and two of my long time friends Scott and Brent in there Ford Diesel SD trucks.

The photos of the hole don't do it justice. It takes a little longer than 5 seconds for a rock to hit bottom...

We looped around north and east of Ash Fork on the Transcontinental Cable road, then dropped south to the old railroad grade. After a short hike to see some of the old graffiti, we ended the day at the Welch Road interchange on I-40.

Thanks to everyone for a great trip!

Slightly off-topic, but it has to do with the area you are in:

Have any of you been to Crazy Man Delgadio's Malt/Shake Shop in Seligman?

Shackle Pin on drivers side of FJ is about to fall out, could be to late for that. Whish I could have made it, but climb competition went well.

Yup, met Mr. Delgadio many years ago - he's since passed away.

Yeah, it has been several years now.

I grew up with his various family members in Flagstaff.

I loved that malt shop. We'd stop there after hunting trips and rides to PV.

Interesting! I've never been myself. Looks like a nice place to bust out the rope and shoes :REAdvRockClimber:
