Darn... wish I had a good piece where the climbing was difficult. Might as well run it out, if you make it past the deck. The finish is rewarding 'city o rocks' elaphant ears all the way!!

Fairly interesting for a 5.6

The crux is the descent.

I shouldn't record this ascent until I have led it clean. But, consider this an announcement I'm gonna get it!

Getting to and past the first bolt is NOT the crux. However, I did fall there numerous times. Due to the difficulty of getting to the first bolt, I did not pull the rope for a clean climb.

(Upper Exum only)

Breathtaking route. Many variations exist. We stayed on rock as much as possible, while some parties scrambled up gullies in haste to get to the top.

Simul-climbing is an essential skill, as one could easily spend all day on this route.

Beautiful.... The approach was a little difficult, due to rough water (canoe) and a little routefinding.

Drizzlepuss is an obstacle that cannot be ignored. On ascent, you scramble over and rappel. On descent, you have to climb over Drizzlepuss roped.

Very neat experience at the summit of Mt. Moran

<b>SOMEBODY</b> Chopped the pitons just this last week. I climbed on Friday, and was weathered off. I returned tuesday to find the piton at the bottom, and the piton at the begining of the second pitch were chopped. <b>evil, rude, ignoramus</b>

Finally, after two failed attempts, the thumb is in the bag.... the view is spectacular, and the descent is much smoother/safer around the opposite side of the thumb. Copy the route, and bring the map..... route-finding is not trivial on this climb.
