bobbyperu Posted July 8, 2003 Posted July 8, 2003 (edited) vivache got me goin this monday morning for a little drive out to the sky valley to meet up with uncle tricky for some sunny granite. reiter road wound along till the little river spot had me pullin over in warm sunshine for a splash, hung around in the sun till trickster arrived, had a safety meetin and decided to find some action on the lower wall. rogers corner was perfect! doin breakfast of champions from the dirt makes a great warm-up of steep jammin' with an overhangin' splitter hands finale... sooo good!, then another lap for good measure, and were off on one of the better raps at index, steep freehanging fun. then another session beckond so we chilled and decided to bounce to the upper wall. we arived wet after our humid jungle hike and tried to wait for the sun to move off the wall, but being a little hyper i headed up 1st pitch of town crier, then tricky sent the sweet corner above clean and quick, then i headed up the 3rd pitch to the top of D/H. dicussed more safety issues, chilled out till the sun swept around and off we headed up sweet super exposed climbing, awesome stems, laybacks and jamming lead to a rad chimney with good wide stems to a little stance. then steep traversing to face cracks with the whole route falling away below,linking this with the last pitch makes for a long exposed pitch with cool juggy steep quartz face holds that climb past a bolt and occasional cracks to a thrilling mantel to top out. Davis Holland/ Lovin' arms is such a good way to climb 5/6 superquality pitches one on top of the other with high e! go get this... sooo nice!!! INDEX gotta love it!-bp p.s. its so cool how good partners keep it together when shit gets messed, ie: rappel hell- stuck ropes, disapearing gear, stuff that could turn a perfect day into drama, but instead just works out with "a little pa-tience, yeaaaahhh-ahhh" and doin what ya gotta do... thanks tricky, another great time climbing with ya' Edited July 8, 2003 by bobbyperu Quote
