Peter_Puget Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 Anyone else been on this route? It has the most painful freaking jamming I have ever done! Didn’t redpoint it but thinking of working on it this fall. PP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't done nnc but it looked like the crux was getting into it...if my memory serves me right....been a few years since i was there. Definitely looks cool, lets climb it soon.

Jens Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Has anybody else beside Skinner done it? Wasn't there a reference to it on climbingwashington.com about how it was really supposed to be a 13 but skinner wanted to rate it stout becasue he was eyeing the real prize city park and didn't want to be called a soft grader? Looks like lock off strength will be critical for nnc--- to make the long reaches between the workable jams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Puget Posted May 21, 2003 Author Share Posted May 21, 2003 Jams are pretty technical unlike the cracks on Midnight plus the sucker really overhangs. I need to get back on the Gutbuster too came pretty close to doing that sucka! PP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 what about maybe maybe crack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimL Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 What never never crack like. I think I'll lead it this weekend. I've looked at Gutbuster. Whats the climbing like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Puget Posted May 21, 2003 Author Share Posted May 21, 2003 Very overhanging crack. It’s short but really hard! You need two ropes to TR because it overhangs so much. Gutbuster is right of the road and very easy to TR. Short overhanging flared finger hand crack with, for me at least, mega reaches between jams. Perfect end of the day project. Hasn't anyone else tried or done these? PP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_White Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Hah, I've put my hands in the first jams, that was enough. I liked the slanting underclingy thing to the right though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
