Yeah, but who wants to be over there with all the drunks and riff raff, gimme ticks anyday...

We didn't take snowshoes...the only time they would have been useful was the slog out, as the snow got real soft as it warmed up on Saturday.

Considering 4 screws are tied up in anchors, that leaves 6 screws for a pitch of climbing, which seemed reasonable to us...not sure why that's ridiculous??

Nice! Can't wait to get back out on all that beautiful granite!

Nice dude, I can't wait to get back out there! You retrieve the portaledge??? How'd Vitamin R look?

Looks like good times man! Wish I coulda rolled out that way to meet ya'll...next time! I'm probably around for a bit yet, so we'll have to get out again soon

i could comprehend something going on in that bed full of men, whilst passed out on the table... fuck yeah boys, good times! helluva bar they got up there on that mountain...

right on dudes! super stoked to get on this one next summer!

nice man, me an a friend just did that route 2 weekends ago and had a blast...we bivied down at the giant boulder and got a 7am start...think we topeed out around noon and back to the car at 5. that descent is a real slog with lots of slippery/loose fun...i imagine doing it in the rain and dark was good times indeed!

helluva route, slab daddy-o!

nice dudes! sweet line indeed...

Road is now open to vehicles all the way to Squire Creek Pass trailhead...no more bike/hike...

nice dude, that's a fun route!

Nice going Tyson, looks like ya'll had good times! I had some stuff to do Saturday night, but kayaked over to Jetty in the snow on Saturday!

because climbers at vantage are typically more sober than at most other climbing areas... Lies!!! I don't think I've ever been sober there. My roommate: "if you're sober(at vantage), you're doing something wrong" good quote indeed, and applicable to most situations, i would venture to reckon...way out is the way out, otter...

hey mark! anytime in early summer after things dry out a bit would be great for the tour! let us know when you can make it up and we'd be happy to show you around...

Wow dude! Glad to hear you're OK and good to see you're getting out! The climbing looks amazing!

We got a few sun breaks on Saturday, then fog/rain rolled in for the night and next morning...good to be out though!
