Otto Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Climb: Chianti Spire-East Face, aka Rebel Yell Date of Climb: 7/11/2004 Trip Report: I would add this to the list in that great thread on Good Offwidths and Chimneys in the Northwest, but someone already mentioned Rebel Yell. I was worried about the 2nd pitch 8" wide 5.9 with numb toes and fingers. But I got through it, and the sun came out during the next pitch. Also, the crux pitch 5, being odd, would go to my partner so I knew I had it made! That pitch is truly amazing, a real jam fest, Jake did it in fine style. Pitch 6 stays just as wide as the top of 5, a little wider even, and goes on and on. I liked how when you think it's over, then come to a short detached block that is arm-bar wide, or a wild layback, or some wierd combination of the two. Big fun on a great route.
