Crackbolter Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Did anyone mention Dr Sniff from Princely Ambitions? Good 5.10d route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crackbolter Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Dr Sniff leaves the belay at the top of the first pitch of Princely. You work right to a thin crack and enter a slot which presents a fun layback or grovel into the slot. It then meets back up with the top of Pricely again which is why I think it would be a good toprope. It might need one directional just above the crux although I don't think you would swing far. Someone was also kind enough to replace my manky slings with chains and new bolts. The slings I left were there since 96' up until last year I think. Now there are wonderful and safe bolts and chains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crackbolter Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 The other 5.10 would be Gorilla My Dreams. If you haven't lead it yet, you should consider it a necessity after toping out on the lower wall left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was real fun: tiny finger locks and some brutal stemming. It's only about 30' tall, but it was fun. I watched in amazement as some egghead type soloed that corner in mt. boots (and no chalk)about 10 years ago. I took several falls before I got it in rock shoes (and copious chalk.)
