- Small Gods (Wikipedia)
Small Gods is the thirteenth of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels, published in 1992. It tells the origin of the god Om, and his relations with his prophet, the reformer Brutha. In the process, it satirises religious institutions, people, and practices, and the role of religion in political life.
- Silvertip Peak (summitpost.org)
My climbing partner and I will sometimes refer to a particularly nasty climb as a “one-n-done”. Silvertip Peak, 1.5 miles southwest of Monte Cristo, is the polar opposite of a “one-n-done”. With a ghost town to explore, pleasant approach hike, good camping lake, easy and brush-free route finding, and outstanding views, this is a peak you will want to come back to. Theoretically, the peak should be called Silver Tip (after the Silver Tip mining claim), and the Cascade Alpine Guide refers to it as such. On the USGS map, however, it is labeled as Silvertip, which is probably the more “official” of the two names.
