Gothamite Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 What is a "switchback"? Are they referring to the back-and-forth mountain roads, or is it also some local name for an animal?

Soarindude Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Ditch the granite, ditch the soccer ball, and ditch the "est.2015" and this isn't that bad of a logo. Its a pretty awful logo though as it stands right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they referring to the back-and-forth mountain roads, or is it also some local name for an animal?I assume it's in reference to the mountain roads. As far as I know, there is no local name that uses switchbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideRight Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The "Switchback" is a system of back and forth roads or train tracks used to climb mountains, since neither a train nor a car could climb a straight road at steep angles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
