The University of Oregon Outdoor Program used to have an extensive guide that detailed every route at the butte. As I recall, every possible manifistation of a route had been done there, and several "contrived" routes had been put together where you would use only one hand, etc. None of these routes required pins...

I have climbed at Skinners many times, and that is definitely not the place to be nailing.

I am a newbie, and I am wondering the same thing... (I know, another FNG)

Unfortunatley, yea. I can arrange to do some three day weekends, but of course, I have to plan ahead for that. But no three day weekends yet as I just started my job yesterday at the Hutch.

Heading there on Wednesday this week around 7 or so. Would go this weekend, but the good weather demands a trip outside

My girlfriend and I just moved here from the midwest. She and I both climb, however, she likes gym climbing and easier top roping, while I prefer some more adventurous climbing. I have been climbing for 14 years and I am looking for someone to go climb some rock, ice, mountains, whatever Some stats: Rock: Lead Sport 5.10, Lead Trad 5.9/10- Ice: Lead WI2/3, second WI4 Mountains: Adams, Baker, Hood, Kilimanjaro, many others -Matt PS. I just joined up at Stone Gardens (in Ballard), and should be there 2 or 3 times a week.
