Tradition to White Room
I was told that it is traditional to carry a small rock to the White Room the first time you go and add it to the cairn there that is a memorial to Steve. True?
Possibly, but not a good idea to move rocks around in a cave.
Rocks
I agree and didn't do it, but someone must have because the last time I went there (2 years ago), there was a pretty good-sized pile. I was just wondering how this got started?
White Room Rocks
I have visited the White room a few times and each time the rock pile has been messed with. Sometimes it is a nice pile and other times its scattered, I guess some like it neat and some don't. Anyway I have never added to the pile just looked, next time I guess I'll take a photo and document the movement.

This time there was a pile with a pvc tube inserted into it and just past it a ring of stones.
That's the way it was two weeks ago, far side had a painted rock (painted on one side so you just noticed along the edge as the paint was on the down side).

Took my first trip there yesterday. There is a pile of rocks in the middle with a piece of PVC (8") laying in the middle and a rock circle just to the right of the pile. Oh, and lots of skid marks coming in....
pvc
Maybe the PVC is an 'historic" survey marker; otherwise, why would it be there?
