In reply to: have to be out of the canyon by 7PM.
Actually, you have to be out by 8PM. They won't let you in after 7 and you must be out by 8.

We were booted from Little Eiger around 7pm about 2 weeks ago. The guy sat there honking his horn till we got off the wall and in our cars. It was a bummer. :(

That sucks. I was there last week and the cop drove up the canyon around 7:30 saying everyone had better be gone by the time he drove back down. It is starting to get dark around 8 anyway, so it doesn't really matter anymore.

Hey Rylan! Last night was the 1st night that I witnessed them enforcing the 7:00 time out as stated on the sign. We were climbing up at Little Eiger and they came by as usual, pointed at their watch and told us to leave. That was 7:10.
BTW. . . the new 10 at Little Eiger are among the best in the Canyon. Really, really nice movement over stone!

In reply to: Here are a couple of pictures from Maple Canyon, UT. This place is SWEET, without a doubt my Fav in the SLC area.
Careful there, young Jeremy. Maple Canyon, Utah is full of polygamists. You might wake up and find yourself with 6 wives. The horror!
And as Josh pointed out (my new favorite quote, I might add):
It's a slippery slope, Jeremy. Don't let your friends do mormons.
Thanks Josh for that hysterical post. I laughed my ass off. Well, not all of it as evidenced by the pic posted by Dave. :shock:

Hells no. I don't mess around with the law. The last thing I need is to find myself in the clink. Or worse, shipped off to Missouri.

It's route 241 on Bulge Wall in Rossiter's Guide, p. 327. The route joins Anthill Direct at one point and then apparantly crosses Anthill Direct. Rossiter's topo doesn't really show the final pitches and you need to reference at least three of them.

I left a shiney gold BD quick draw halfway up the new 11... :( I think we should mobilize a covert team to sneak up the canyon by the cover of night and blast loose some more rock or dynamite a bridge, thus keeping the road closed for another month or so. Who is with me?!?

Two things - Please dont make up your mind about Red Rock Canyon till you get a chance to climb on the Wailing Wall!! The hardest stuff Ive ever done. Rock quality is 100% better than the rest of the canyon. Make sure you have the latest guidebook however because everything has been upgraded (as we found out today.)
Also if any of you up in Denver get a chance drop czmielon a line. He is looking for partners during the week. Solid, safe and a nice guy. caught many a fall today.

Ditto on czmielon, good dude, good belay. BTW, did green spur today and they is muchos loose rock on the higher pitches, lots of fun none the less.

Yeah. We did some cool routes on Blob and then headed to Flagstaff. It was funny because when I was waving at you guys, someone pulled over to help me. He thought I was flagging someone down for help.
So you guys should go to Young and the Rackless on Blob after work. It's an over-bolted, mellow 5.9. The approach isn't that bad and the climb gets you nice and high over the canyon. A few notable crux sections on P2 & P3. Aside from that, it's pretty mellow. Highly recommended!
I got my Flagstaff cherry popped this weekend too. The rock out there is really, really cool. It's nice and frictiony. But to the schmuck who smeared poo on the Monkey Traverse. . .you're an ass.
Anyone interested in doing some alpine, long moderate at Lumpy or something 3rd or 4th class in the high country on Thurs? I get to take a mandatory 3 days off sans pay due to budget cuts. Thursday will be day 1. I need to be back in Denver at 4:30.
