This is a detailed picture of the first pitch of Plumber's Crack. The pitch is located on the east face of the large left facing corner on the north face of the buttress. This line was chosen for a reason.

This is the Booty Buttress as it is viewed from the north. It juts from the talus on the south side of the river, directly across from the west end of Identity Wall.

This thin face is technical and powerful. The identity wall is a nice change of pace from Kottenai's other walls.

This is a shot of the Outernmost limits wall.

Joe on Venus deMilo (5.11d)

ive only been climbing for three months and already have surpassed my teacher.

Great climb with plenty of protection before and after the roof. Don't let the last move get ya just look left!

She just didn't want to give up on this one. It started sleeting later and she had to come down.

Long route with 13 or so bolts. Bring two ropes!

If your short you might need a hand at the start. At under 5 feet Sebena has trouble at the start.

This is Jeff on a trip to Missoula visiting from GreatFalls!

Took a couple of kids from GreatFalls out and hooked with a local climber. Nice day even if it rained.

My friend Alex cleaning my gear after a intresting lead!

Shailesh taking off from the chain anchors. Clipping the 1st two bolts on Kyles 12 and then moving over the roof to get back onto the 2nd pitch of Ironmonger. A nice varient to the route that allows you to climb pitch one at a full 60m.

First hook up with Fredo on a nice March day. Stay to the right and it pretty straight forward.

This was the warm up for the day. Fire drill was next then the botulism.

Fine March day in Montana! New Folks at crag always nice to see! Great problem with some nice moves.

Last climb of the day for this luckly fellow. I hard pull with two little crimpers before a huge jug. Well protected so no worries.

Outermost Limits wall is a super nice spot to climb. The route Outermost Limits is the farthest left and closest to the bouldering. This is a photo of my brother Pat doing an onsight lead the first time in the canyon. Fun route for sure.

The route is located in Kootnai Canyon. Its at the first Buttress. The climber is a local. The route is bolted and is 80' long. There are two cruxes on this 5.10.
