colt45 Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 The rappels should be totally straightforward: all the belays are in a direct line, and the wall is pretty steep with few flakes or cracks--just lots of nice, positive edges for the climbing!

layton Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 (edited) next time try unimpeachable groping for some fun alpinclippin'. it's soft for the grade and lots o' bolts. super fun. 6 or 7 pitches if i remember. tops out same as ginger cracks. only a rack o' draws are needed too.

Drederek Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Inti Watana is indeed easy to rap. We rapped it last week to avoid the walk off Mt Wilson, not the final pitches of RA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
