climber outline against the heavy texture of Wasootch Slabs

This is me on my frist trad like lead .. there were 2 bolts (throug the 5.11 crux) the top was 5.9 gear. Lots of fun.

Here is me practicing some friction climbing. The route actually uses the broken features, but for funs sake I just climbed ontop of the plate.

This dual humped ridge is just south of Wasootch, above Kilowatt Crag. forty minute approach up the creek-valley to where the ridge is seen as 2 humps. Nice scrambling up the gash to pitch1. Climb up a slab to a bolt, go right around a corner and pop in the vital 3" cam then up to bolted belay(50m)5.7+ Pitch 2 go up ridge, 5.6 for 35m to belay. Pitch3 go up ridge for 35m on 5.6 ground to 2 bolt belay on grassy ledge. pitch4 goes left and up to the summit(5.4) for 50m. descend down the easy ridge to the road.

Here Lynne and I did a very short multi. It started with a short free climb. Thank you to the people on the ground that grabbed our camera and took some pictures.
