New routes at Lava Point

Deadhead wall, the first climb coming in from the east. Steal your face 5.10-C named after the lighting bolt skull emblem of the dead thumbs_up.gif FA Lucky and Mary

Dream wall, to find this wall continue west along the top of the cliff till you find a karn on top of a stump and the descent gully. This wall has the biggest Lava jugs you have ever seen thumbs_up.gifThe second climb as you head west, Imbibing Neon Dream Emerging Ever Despondent( INDEED ) 5.10-B the name was inspired by LW, climbs jugs of frothy lava rock to thin power move FA Lucky and Yoder. Further west toward the end of the wall the route going out the largest roof NOTHING ELSE MATTERS 5.11-B climb straight out the roof to a bolt on the lip, has been led clipping the bolt on lead but unless your solid on horizontal 11-B moves or wired it on top rope like I did, I would advise a stick clip, ring anchors down from cliff top FA Lucky Mary and Rusty. Way steep and way fun this route rockband.gif

At the west end of the wall you find a set of chains (Marys project)the second climb to the right is Lava Sundae 5.10-A ,the first climb put up on this wall, start with a bolt on a large black face continue up past two closely spaced bolts than to a black lieback corner ,up to a bolt on a small roof, up to ring anchors and a comfortable belay.

This area has seen a lot of routes lately and for more beta you will have buy the new Tieton River Canyon guide coming out soon thumbs_up.gif.

Lucky, Mary, and Rusty's routes/FA's are absolutely incredible. They were cleaned well, the rock is very unique ("Frothy Lava" as Lucky calls it), and are a blast to climb. Thank you's go out to Lucky and others for letting some Yakivegas natives tie in on their ropes at Dream Wall during Labor Day weekend.
