I'll have to tell you all my Brown Mountain Lights story sometime.

What I can tell you is that i was camping with my wife once when we went to Wisemeans view at night. On the way back Fire And Rescue was at Babel Tower Trail head. Back then I camped up there frequently and used to talk with the guy that ranthegasstation acRoss from Louse's whenever I was in town. He told me some one fell off Babel Tower in that night. I commented that it must have been a hard job to bring the litter up that trail at night. He said, No, all we needed to do was put a strainer in the river to catch the pieces. Having camped on Babel Tower before, I wasn't sure if he was serious or not.

The Neusiok Trail. A few of us tried to hike that end to end in 78 or 79 on Fri Evening to Sun trip. Got close, but did not finish

There have been lots of improvments to the trail since then. Come on back and hike it again. Lots of places to hang along the trail and at the shelters.

A putty knife might be a better tool to scrape up what was left after a fall from Babel Tower.
