Trip: Pete's Pile - moderate stuff Date: 8/15/2008 Trip Report: Went out to Pete's Pile to escape the heat and found a superb cool morning and great moderates. Climbed Even (5.7), For Pete's Sake (5.8, favorite of the day), Dunce (5.6) and School Room (5.9 TR). First time out to Pete's and I was very impressed with the development including the top chains and the killer spectator/belay seat in the schoolroom area. Thanks out to the guys that made this place happen. Sorry no pics. Gear Notes: normal trad fare. Approach Notes: dusty 100 yards or so.

Does anyone know if Beacon opened on the 1st or the 2nd? The park website and phone recording still say closed. thx
