South Crack is sweet, as is the West Crack and Crescent Arch on Daff.

 

Cry In Time Again was fun but scary. Black Widow, memorable...

 

Never done any Fairview routes. Medlicott? NOT!

 

Any stories or stoke? Discuss.

Are you pining for long summer days in the meadows or planning them?

 

I remember great adventures on these:

 

Inverted Staircase on Fairview.

Eichorn Pinnacle (w/direct 5.10 variation).

Phobos on the Phobos/Deimos wall.

Cathedral Peak by full moon.

 

Even the oft-crowded trade-routes kicks ass:

 

Regular Route on Fairview.

West Crack on Daff Dome.

 

Still on my hit list:

 

Hoodwink.

Third Pillar.

Lucky Streaks.

Oz.

Cathedral Peak by full moon.

 

Favorite climb I have ever done! Durring the day it is still very fun but crouded. On a night with a full moon it is increadable. I would also recomend Tenya peak, Echo peaks, Mathers Crest, Anything on Conness, South crack, West Country, Great White Book, The Yawn, Gaylens Crack and on and on. Danm it has been almost 8 years. I may need to do a summer road trip soon.

Dike Route on Pywiack was pretty classic, if you don't mind running it out on 5.9 slab. Best one that got away could be the Dana Pillar route - I'd love to get back to that one.

It's lifted from the web, so I can take no credit for the pic. The route features 3 full pitches of horizontal traversing a couple pitches off the deck. Most of it is more featured and casual, but that shot is the main dish, a solid 40 feet of continuous 5.9. Not that hard, but a wee bit intimidating - I pedalled out and back to the rest a couple times before committing to it.

I'll vote for Mathes (not Mathers, Snaileye) Crest. Two 60 meter pitches to an unforgetable neverending ridge traverse - if you stay on the knife's proper edge, you're sometimes walking along a six inch wide balance beam with a couple hundred feet beneath you! For full value, do the full ridge (that adds a half mile). Worth every penny for admission!
