yeah ive wondered about that same thing both times out to goode. but it seems after tromping through the woods only to walk/ hitch on the highway for the remaining mile didnt seem worth it even if you did park your car off the hwy. really, if your coming from bridge creek whats another mile or two?

dude that is a sweet route. i climbed it my first year of trad climbing. infact i had to lead every pich because my more experienced partner was freaking out. killer route that has good exposure in spots and great rock that climbs an integral feature of whitney. my advice is to acclimitize. we had been climbing in Toulome meadows for a month previous so we were honed. we were up there in oct, had perfect weather. go for it /c

Racer X is the first sporto route put up there,its 10c slab. there are others too check out Sky Valley Rock by Daryl Cramer. have fun

i use shoeler pants w/ shorts as backups for hot approaches. a hat. 1 t-shirt or tank top.1 pair of long johns top and bottom. 1 change of socks for trips more than 3 days. a light wind jacket unless im climbing ice or snow then i bring my marmot alpinist jacket, its pretty light gore tex XCR- keeps the rain from pounding on your head. for around camp when its really raining a tarp or if you want to go really tech, silicone impregnated nylon tarp with a bivy sack, or sub bivi sack for BD mega mid or mega light it makes for a more social event. have fun this year, light is right

nice work! was there any ice?

I have had the same thing, if you are on your feet alot at work try new insoles (superfeet). i did and it really helped!

nice TR Mark, any more photos?

yo! we need a weather report. we afre poised to leave b'ham right now but arent sure of the weather. were going to eat a big b-fast and check to see if its worth the $20 in gas or not.thanks in advance

Climb: index-sagitarius Date of Climb: 10/1/2004 Trip Report: we climbed sagitarius to the base of the roof-super fun. i was wonderin bout the 11b version to pull the roof. the falcon guide(sucks)says that there is required nailing and is therefore rarely climbed. the sky valley book says nothin about nailing. so whats the deal? has anybody climbed it latley/ever? what about the 5.10 variation, poor pro? let me know- thanx in advance
