Grippedclimer working up the First pitch of Coatimundi Whiteout.

This is the easy 5.9 traverse at the top of the 3rd pitch. I got to onsite the 5.10 pitch. I even went back down and got the old fixed 2 1/2 friend out. 12/18/04 Granite Mountain, Arizona.

The 4th pitch of the Coatimundi/Candyland route traverses out under this great route. Jon leads this very fun, exposed pitch.

This explains the hissing noise I heard while climbing Coatamundi Whiteout on Granite Mountain. This little fella didn't like seeing my fingers on his front porch.

Andy deserves a beer if he finds it. This route feels like a stout at 5.9-. But the January snow should keep whatever he finds ice cold.

Jared leading the Great Roof pitch to the right. This joins Coatamundi Whiteout with Candyland to keep the rating at 5.9 The roof pitch leading right is 5.7. There's actually some good feet and protection possibilities beyond the bolt and piton. Belly flopping onto the ledge around the corner makes a neat sound and points your face straight down.

Instead of kickin' it on a big ledge, Mike opted for a hanging belay in cramped corner in order to take some very nice shots; we were both handsomely rewarded.

Absolutely exquisite roof exit.. A must do route if find yourself in Central AZ

Me heading up the crux 2nd pitch of Green Savior. THis is the Cisco Way variation and is super easy 5.8 and highly recommended!

Joe totally running the rope out on the 2nd crux pitch of Coatamundi Whiteout 5.9 variation.

Leading out on the Roof traverse. Joe was bummed I did not leave much pro, I was gripped.
