Exit 38

Does anyone know what kind of condition Exit 38 is in? Has it dried out enough to be reasonable yet? Much Appreciated.

Do you mean from winter??? Yeah, you can climb there.

Do you mean from the rain today??? No, it's still raining.

 

Also, there are plenty of routes that you can do up there in light rain... it's so blocky, you don't have to worry much about your feet.

Great, that's what I was hoping to hear.

Speaking of which...I was up there yesterday and led this little 5.7 trad route at Chainsaw Wall. There was this 200+ lb. block hanging over the belay chains like a sword of Damocles. It was loose to the touch, waiting to be pulled down on the belayer. We trundled that baby. Kaboom! That route was a lot better than I thought it would be. A great little beginner route. Take a small rack and do that one plus Ultramega Crack, 5.8 on Slumbersome Ridge, and Salutiferous Exaltation...blah, blah, blah, 5.8 on The Peannicle. Do them in that order.
