You know as well as we do from the national trend
of inflation that prices will go up again before next
summer. You will be doing yourself a favor by
getting now (October, November, December, and
January) what you will need for next season.

Under the present policy at Mount Rainier, 2900
persons have been denied their camping requests in
1973 and 1974. Can we assume that enjoyment of the
Park for those people was impaired? If so, the denials
were illegal. This is the issue being tested in court.
A lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court, Seattle,
on 7 August 1975, C-75574-S. The NPS has until 7
October to reply. The case will then be assigned to a
judge. The trial may not take place for six to nine
months.
We have appealed for funds to support the lawsuit,
since this is an action to preserve the legal rights of
all citizens, as a community action. We are willing
to take the lead, but we do need help.

Some more money is coming in, but not enough.
Any lawsuit in Federal Court will cost about $5000,
even though our lawyer (a climber himself) of the
firm of Preston, Thorgrimson, Ellis, Holman &
Fletcher is giving us a reduced rate. The NPS,
having unlimited legal services, can be expected to
fight all the way.
The NPS has gone even further. They have
recommended to Congress that 90 076 of Mount Rainier
National Park be locked up legally under Wilderness
Rules, leaving only 10% for the 1.4 million other
visitors.

Unfortunately, growth at that rate brings problems,
and those problems are not what MSR was organized
for. Our primary purpose was and is to have fun by
applying basic engineering and physics to mountain
safety equipment and methods.
We started out Consumers Union style, testing and
reporting on what we found on the market, offering
free engineering help to certain key manufacturers.
However, they were too busy selling to consider improvements. The only way we could make our work
effective was to manufacture and market the better
products ourselves.
For example, we found many weak wooden-shafted
ice axes on the market. We improved by changing to
aluminum shafts. To introduce the improvement
quickly, we sold our aluminum-shafted ice axes at
$13. 75, about half what they cost us.
Those happy days of subsidizing the new developments are over because the numbers are getting too
large. MSR has to pay its own way. As increases in
the cost of building rent, materials, tooling, workers,
interest on inventory capital, and 'governmental
charges" hit us, we have no choice but to pass them
on if we are to be here to serve you in the future.
We can keep up our present rate of production and
even increase somewhat. WE HAVE ADEQUATE
PRODUCTION CAPACITY OCTOBER THROUGH
JANUARY. BUT WE SEE NO WAY TO HANDLE THE
EXPECTED SURGE (ABOVE THE NORMAL MONTHLY
RATE) NEXT SUMMER. WE SINCERELY URGE YOU
TO ORDER NOW.
Lawsuit against the Park Service
After five
five serious discussion meetings (in Seattle,
Longmire, and Washington, D. C.) and many letters
transmitted at first through Senator Jackson's office
and then direct, spread over three years, it has
become clear that the present administration in the
National Park Service is dead set on closing down the
parks as much as they dare.
Gary Everhardt, the new director, is quoted in CSM
3 September 1975:
preservation will be the first
priority.
In other words, he feels parks are not for people
and that he is above the Laws of Congress 1899 and
1916. These laws established Mount Rainier National
Park "for the benefit and appreciation of the people'
and instructed the Park Service to promote the use of
the parks for the present generation, provided only
that the parks not be impaired for enjoyment by future
generations.
Everhardt is not only impairing enjoyment of the
parks by the present 'future generation" but shows he
intends to impair enjoyment by future "future generations" as long as he is in control. The only way left
to preserve the parks for the people is in court.

The Doctrine of Fairness
We at MSR favor wilderness, but point out that
1, 100, 000 acres of Washington State have already
been placed legally under Wilderness Rules, 300, 000
more acres (Alpine Lakes) will undoubtedly be going
under Wilderness Rules, and therefore Mount Rainier
should be retained as a Park for the use of all the
people, not just an elitist group.
Mt. Adams Wilderness Area
Goat Rocks Wilderness Area
Glacier Peak Wilderness Area
Pasayten Wilderness Area
Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area
(Before Congress)
TOTAL
32, 356 acres
82,680 acres
464,258 acres
505,524 acres
300,000 acres
1,384,818 acres
- versus Mount Rainier National Park
237, 000 acres
The NPS would strip this down to only 23, 700 acres
for the general visitor. The wilderness advocates
already have more than their fair share.
Blisters!
No one reading this article need be reminded that
blisters can spoil the expected joy of a hike or climb.
Worse, they can halt a whole party when one member
gets a really severe blister. I can remember a trip
20 years ago when my whole heel became a blister,
and I barely made it back to the road.
After that one healed, I used moleskin on the entire
heel and up the back two inches, cut at the corners to
form a heel cup. That helped, but I finally went to a
full coverage of the bottom of my feet. This stopped
the blistering and also relieved the 'burning sensation.
After some years of using that preventive method,
a climber told me she used girl-type nylons inside the
heavy sock to form a slip surface between the nylon
and the heavy sock. So I tried man-type stretch nylon
socks under the heavy socks. Presto I could stop
using the moleskin.
I didn't really understand what was happening until
Wilderness Camping Vol 5, No 3, 1975, described
the blister-forming process in an article by Robert
Ross. Comes the dawn We will review that article
and then go on to suggest specific trail-tested preventive and treatment methods.
(Wilderness Camping is a worthy magazine. Send
$5. 90 to them at 1597 Union Street, Schenectady, NY,
12309, Dept. R, for one year, six issues.
From Ross' article, the top layer of skin (the
epidermis) is made up of five layers. Four of these
layers are parallel to each other, like a layer cake.
The fifth layer includes "finger" cells that point outwardly through the other layers, pinning them together
to inhibit separation and lateral shifting, performing
the same way toothpicks do in the layer cake.
The finger cells do not have unlimited strength.
When there is too much shearing stress, as when a
boot and sock continue to rub an area at high unit
pressure, they fail. The layers split, fill with lymph
(fluid), and a blister has been formed.
HOW TO PREVENT BLISTERS
1. Break in the boots to your feet. Soak them in
water (room temperature) for two hours, then wear
them while they dry, changing socks several times.
At the same time, "train" the folds in the leather
over the base of the toes so that the fold is upwardoutward, not downward.
It will be necessary to omit using some of the
lacing holes at the bottom. The first cross-lace
should be diagonal and just back of the diagonal line
over the base of the toes. This instruction refers to
boots having a sewed-in gusset of soft leather which
prevents water from running into the boot.
2. Remember where the blisters formed on the last
trip, and apply adhesive tape at the start of the next
trip, not three miles later. When a "hot spot" is
apparent to you, it is already too late. If the previous
blister had been large or severe, use moleskin instead
of tape. The covering will spread the load and reduce
local shear stress between layers of skin.
I
Page 10-3
3. If a minor hot spot (red and tender) has already
formed, placing adhesive tape directly over the injury
is a dubious matter, because the tape will adhere to
the separated layer of skin and be pulled off when the
tape is removed. It is better to adhere a small piece
of plastic film on the tape first and then position the
plastic spot over the beginning blister. The tape can
then be removed without pulling off the top of the
blister. But see next.
4. Where a definite significant blister has or will
form, a bridging technique is used to relieve the
pressure. Cut a hole the size of the blister in a piece
of molefoam say 2' x 6'. The hole is located over the
blister and the surrounding molefoam holds the boot
away from the injured spot. Molefoam is 3/16' thick.
Two layers can be used.
If you put a small piece of molefoam directly over
a blister, it increases the pressure and makes the
wound more painful.
If adhesive is applied directly to a blistered area,
better leave it in place for four days until new skin has
formed.
5. Wear a slippery thin sock inside the heavy one.
The foot will slip around inside the boot a bit more,
but there will be much less layer-type stress on the
skin, hence reduction of blistering.
6. Fix any pressure points inside the boot. If a
blister recurs at the same spot on the heel, for
example, the problem is likely due to an inwardly
projecting bump of leather. Most boot shops and
some shoe shops have a ring-and-ball device which
can push the bump outward and thus eliminate the
pressure point. Be sure to use a leather-softening
liquid (alcohol will do) to avoid tearing the leather.
7. Choose a non-abrasive sock. Some wools and
polyester socks are harsh to wet skin. Test by
rubbing the material between thumb and forefinger.
The feel should be smooth and soft. Some hikers can
use a coarse knit sock, but I much prefer a fine uniform smooth material. A mix of nylon, Orion and 10%
cotton made by Wigwam is excellent. But note that
Wigwam also makes some 100% acrylic ski socks that
are abrasive.
8. Ross mentions a coating material, isoamyl
cyanoacrylate, to be painted directly on the blister or
mucous layer after the top layer has broken away. It
is one of the instant adhesives. Sounds interesting.
Let us know how it works. Tincture of Benzoin is
used for the same purpose. So is Nu-Skin, a collodion
coating.
9. Change to dry socks frequently. (Sometimes
easier said than done.
10. Drain the blister? Yes. Ross reports on the
work of T. A. Cortese, who found that recovery was
quickest when the blister tops were left in place. He
also found that draining a blister relieved the pressure
and hence some of the pain. Further, a drained
blister does not increase as much in size.
