Yossarian Posted May 22, 2001 Share Posted May 22, 2001 The Climbers Guide to Squamish book gives little info about University Wall. If anyone has any route information or can direct me towards a good resource I would appreciate it. It looks as if it would be a good solo wall.

Dru Posted May 22, 2001 Share Posted May 22, 2001 Do you have the first or second edition? Second edition has relatively lots of beta. All c1 with short cruxes, take two baby angles for hand placing and a few cam hooks. Bivi at the tree top of p. 4 or 5 or fix lines like real squamish hardmen and bivi in the pub. Shouldn't this post be under BC and not Alpine Lakes????????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimL Posted May 22, 2001 Share Posted May 22, 2001 Funny, I was getting ready to post something about the U Wall myself. How are the anchors on the climb? New or rusty 1/4 funk. I have the same Squamish guide and it seemed rather vague on the approach. Also, do you rap the route? Any info will be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted May 22, 2001 Share Posted May 22, 2001 The anchors are "good enough". You walk off on Bellygood, typically, or you can rap the Ben's rap line (need 55m +60m ropes at minimum) At this time of year best to set up on a weekday as every bumbly in the multiverse not on Cannabis Wall will be doing U Wall on a weekend and learning how to haul and top step 1 pitch in front of you (while their girlfriends learn how to jug and clean ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
