Drederek Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 Climb: Cushman Cliffs-?????? Date of Climb: 6/26/2004 Trip Report: Took my daughter to the rocks today. Found some new to me climbs up and right from X-crag. As I rapped from some chains I was intrigued by the line, an arete to the right of a lfc with a couple roofs lower down and one piton 20 feet off the deck. So I TR'd it and I think its the best line by far that I've done in this area. Seemed to be solid 5.10 with some great moves and sustained difficulties. I was wondering if someone was going to bolt this or if someone had headpointed it and it will be a TR forever. There were 3 crappy placements in the 60 feet above the piton so I'm hoping it'll get a few bolts and it'll be leadable someday. Its so much better than the other routes around there. Quote
MTNEER Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 There has been a good bit of new development in the McCleary/Cushman Cliffs area lately, especially to the right of the Open Book Area. Since McCleary/Cushman Cliffs will be included in the 4th edition of the Climbers Guide to the Olympic Mountains, I would very much like to have new route info to include in this edition. You can provide the info on this site or at the olympic Mountain Rescue website: olympicmountainrescue.org Thanks MTNEER Quote
