from a ridge overlooking desolation peak jeremy wilson sings "over/under" as a tribute to jack kerouac who spent summer 1956 in desolation's fire lookout cabin as a firespotter/seeker/seer of all. filmed by nic with an oldskool vidcam in 1988. at the time jeremy was a member of 'the dharma bums', the great northwest band out of the great northwest. rebeat!
I had the CD this song was on. Somebody stole the CD along with the player I had it in. I gotta get the CD again sometime. I really like the song "Boots of Leather" too.

I hiked up desolation last year. That's a damn good hike, i'll tell you that. I was pretty surprised by the switchbacks. Seeing the "void" was great, I yelled so loud up there, no one around. I loved it up there. take care.

your telling me! we hung around the little camp near the summit too long. the weather turned as we made the final bid for the lookout & we had to turn back. photographed a big ol' battlescarred buck (in rut) who wandered into camp & bugged us all nite along with 2 of his does as we lay on the ground w/o a tent, sleepingbags covered in snow. do not underestimate this climb.
