Roof Garden path

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Roof Garden path

From the top of either Lemon Twist or Frank's World step across to the other end of the large ledge to build a gear belay at the base of the big crack under the looming roof and climb through to glory above, exiting through the slot between the two big buttresses. A bit easier than it looks but still featuring a challenging (well protected) move or two.

Target Practice

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Target Practice

Leader at the lower face section of target practice near the first bolt. Probably a good idea to place a piece of gear to protect moves through the chossy rock guarding that bolt. Enter via a shelf out left and traverse in. Route crux is in the orange face about 20 feet above just before you move left to approach the roofs.

Blue Balls

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Blue Balls

Topo pic of Blue Balls. Looks a bit kooky due to the wid angle lens I used. Wander your way up and exit through the V slot, top center. Many possibilities.

Walk Don't Run

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Walk Don't Run

Shot of a previously undocumented line we thought looked fun. Just a short ways down from "Blue Balls" and "Turdslinger" but before the large cleft in the rock that contains "Relapse". Shot taken with a wide angle lens, so it's a bit foreshortened.

Bottom to Top

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Bottom to Top

Picture of the line, after we had tweaked it straight on a subsequent TR. Pardon the wide-angle lens stretchification of the bottom of the route and my partner!

Working through the overhanging bit near the start. This is a view from slightly up the gully looking down towards the trail.

Borrowed time/Amputee

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Borrowed time/Amputee

Looking up from the start on Borrowed time at my friend Sue. Not the best topo, but I think it looks kind of neat.

blue balls area rap station

Average Rating = 0.00/5 blue balls area rap station

Slung (and then some) chockstone forms a rap station for the topout of blue balls and whatver else puts you up on top of the pillar peninsula. Rap drops you down into the split/gully about 100' down. I'm fairly sure a 60m will get you down but I *know* a 70m will.

P2 Dromedary

Average Rating = 0.00/5 P2 Dromedary

Part of P2 on Dromedary, up and left of the second belay. Getting up to where I got the second piece of gear felt like the crux, although the 3rd piece is a #5 C4, which you'll probably want if you go this way. Alternate line goes out right to the arete (not shown, far right) which I'll try to get in a wide angle shot next time I'm up.

Getting underway...

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Getting underway...

Starting up A Walk in the Light. Work the hard move off the ground, move left and aim for the crack, then head up the face to the decent sized ledge.

getting casual before pulling the crux

Average Rating = 0.00/5 getting casual before pulling the crux

After the bouldery start, catch a break to set pro and consider the next moves through the crux roof. About as casual as 5.10 gets.

upper flake on Unknown 5.7+

Average Rating = 0.00/5 upper flake on Unknown 5.7+

This shows the upper section of this rather long route. From the top of the wide crack start working up towards the base of the flake, following the path of least resistance and the best gear. The crack is probably 5.4ish, possibly R if you don't take wide gear or G if you load up. Optional belay at the top of the 5.4. Above, the climbing becomes noticeably more difficult, probably 5.7+ to 5.8ish. Possible to dodge left over the chasm onto the easy part of step and fetch if you don't like the look of things or the slightly dubious rock quality+lichen creep you out. Airy moves up top!

Mrs. Workman's Corner

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Mrs. Workman's Corner

General line if you go left instead of straight up. Bottom 10 or so feet is cut off but you get the idea. Look closely to see my goofy but effective tree sling pro.

little

Average Rating = 0.00/5 little "friend"

This little fella found it's way into my partner's helmet when he left it on the ground for a few minutes near the base of this route. Thankfully it fell out when he picked the helmet up to put it on. Their camouflage is incredible though; we were looking for it for several minutes before we found it, about 3 or 4 feet from the dropped helmet. Things would have gotten a lot more interesting if my partner had gotten the helmet on with the snake still in it...
