Historic Hood River
Crag Rats Field Trip
6-6-2022
Notes
On July 5, 1931 the Crag Rats ventured a little ways out of their home turf to climb South Sister. This is probably a large percentage of the founding members of the organization. Can anyone pin some names on these characters?
[Ed. note: the names were on the back!] Photo by Josh Pierson. T.J.(?) Annala, Dr. Nichols, Eino Annala, Arvi Annala, Bill Hukari, Mace Baldwin, Paul Hoerlein, Harold Davis, Geo. Sheppard Jr., Oscar Alajoki, Andy Anderson, Danny Pierson, Josh Pierson, S. Annala.

Some shenanigans going on here- these probably are many of the founding members, since it 1931.
Andy Andersen, Bill Cochran, Maybe Hoerlein, some Annalas and Hukari’s… I don’t like the looks of the ice axe pointed at the head of the fella sitting in the foreground…
South sister is a leisurely climb, you can see middle and north sister in the background.

Great pic to share ! Thank you ! It looks as if a few limbs are contorted for fun and on purpose…. Hope the all made it down safely ….

Shenanigans if a good word for this.
Somehow I forgot to look at the reverse of this one– with all the names. I'll add them to the notes section.
