sobo Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 I think that's why I gave up Miner's. But then, it might be cuz I added fries to that, which probably put my gut over the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertm Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 Climbed "Ride the Lightning" a couple of weeks ago -- overall a good route. The dihedral pitch is great (no bolted cracks) and the next pitch after that one is cool too. One point to add is that the rappel is located about 100 feet west and down from the top of RTL and not 300 feet. There is some orange flagging still about where the rappel anchors are but there are no cairns as it states in the description and you cannot see it from the pine tree (everything looks like a cairn up there). I am suprised the entire top of goosegg mountain hasn't slid off -- super loose stuff. Next would like to try Shock and Awe. It looks like there are several new routes up there all recently manufactured with a crowbar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 at tieton the route is manufactured with a crowbar and in the case of retrobolt of DD the reverse is true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertm Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 Indeed, it appeared as if the route had seen significant "cleaning" by prying exfoliating flakes off. There was one pitch where many of the holds were incuts from missing rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
