dstu Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 Somebody told me there is some rock on SR-900 out of Issaquah. I have driven the stretch dozens of times and never seen anything. Does any body know anything about this mystery rock? Quote
ScottP Posted May 28, 2005 Posted May 28, 2005 It's not that easy to spot, but here's a pic of it... Quote
chirp Posted May 28, 2005 Posted May 28, 2005 Bahh hes a liar. Visualise the same thing but in Sandstone. Accuracy bro, thats the key. Quote
mattp Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 There are a couple, though I think maybe most predominantly one, bluffs along that road. I don't think they look like something you really need to pursue, though I've had a couple of friends who have tried climbing there. Quote
sobo Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 It's not that easy to spot, but here's a pic of it... Â Did you find that while hiking at work? Quote
Alpinfox Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 Despite the big tired joke about "Renton Granite" , there is actually some climbing going on there - though not on granite. Â Check it. Â Hey Dtsu, if you go out there, please report your findings and maybe some pictures here. Quote
tivoli_mike Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 There is a small cliff/bluff? near the road but on private property. I think there was just one route on it. Don't exactly where it was though... Quote
dstu Posted June 6, 2005 Author Posted June 6, 2005 I found a small rock near the Wilderness Peak trailhead that may be worth about 10 mintues of ones time. It could be top roped and rated 5.5 or an easy 5.6. Quote
flashclimber Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 I think Ive been to that crag beore...it strangely reminds me of Lake Tahoe climbing...but I could be wrong. Maybe a few climbs worth doing...Not! Quote
