dmcnair Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 Are any of the pitches on Heart of Gold protected only with bolts, or do all require placing gear? I'll be taking a "sport only" buddy and I was wondering if they could lead some of the pitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dberdinka Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 First pitch is bolts and maybe 1 piece of gear depending on when you start. Second is hard-to-spot traverse on gear and bolts. Third is all bolts. Last is bolts and maybe 1 piece of gear. Doesn't deserve *** rating in new Leavenworth Guide, but still a decent route. The 3-pitch arete above it is excellent though. Again all three pitches are bolts and just a few pieces of gear. Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
