ClimbingCowboy Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Round River 5.4 *** on Koala Rock is a nice-n-easy multi-pitch. After rap'n down, you could stick and do some other stuff below 5.9 on the back or front sides, or head over to the Marsupials do the Cave route 5.6. It makes for a day of easy climbing with just quickdraws, a sling, and a sport anchor. The views are great. Ginger Snap, Easy Reader and the Pioneer Route on Monkey Face are others that shouldn't be intimidating. 'Course these may be beneath you according to your sport-leading ability. Good Luck. I'm a slave to the almighty dollar this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt_warfield Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 RuMR: Don't you mean "right" of Karate Crack? If so, you are probably talking about a second pitch to Cinammon Slab, of which there are several options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordonb Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 I liked katherine finds an edge. It is in the suppliment book. just uphill from dancer and jete. It goes right up the ridge from asterix pass. It is an easy 5.7ish climb with more exposure than most climbs since you can see both sides of the ridge. If you want to TR use lots of directionals because if you just lower off you end up near the top of dancer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...my bad...to the right IN THE CORNER...the second pitch that i'm talking about then veers off left and finishes up the slab trending to the right of the arete...it is bolted face climbing...

Cinnamon Slab is an easy 5.6 crack; if you don't have trad gear, that ledge can also be reached via Ginger Snap. I saw people on that route the last time I was there. The double-rope rappel looked fun! Is there a walk off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuMR Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Walk off?? HAHAHAHA yeah, just down climb your pick of routes to the climbers left ...or hike off the backside and back around asterisk You can also single rap off of headless w/ a 70m...

erik Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 or rap the route you came up with a single. one note tho...lotsa loose rock up there and lotsa people down below..... walk gingerly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's that chossy gulley with that tattered white handline hanging down to climber's right of those slab low-5th dihedral routes if you want some adventure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, Dru has bad aim and I was able to dodge the debris he rained down on me. The third pitch is a traverse to the left, so don't get suckered by the bolts to the right (but Dru just said that). Other than that, fun and easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 the 5.0 route on squaw rock is pretty good too!!! but at the bottom it feels harder than 5.0. there are lotsa vultures and cougars and stuff out there in the wilderness beyond the bolted too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
