roboboy Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Climb: Vantage - Running with Sage Date of Climb: 3/26/2006 Trip Report: ams and I went to Vantage to do some moderate sport routes. We started out at the Feathers. Here is ams leading Shake It Dont Break It: We moved on to Mandatory Suicide and then Jesus Saves, both also in the Feathers. Mandatory Suicide: Jesus Saves: At this point ams's dog named Sage became unimpressed with human tricks and showed us what she can do - run away and go swimming in freezing water: We left the Feathers and hiked to a different area and climbed Little Red Rooster: Pigeons in love at Vantage: We finished our tour of moderates with Sisterly Love, a sustained 5.7 that ams did a great job of leading. robo at the top anchors: After this we went to find MCash, catbirdseat and bwr who we had planned on meeting. MCash, ams and bwr: catbirdseat was busy leading Go Cat Go: ams and MCash top-roped: We got the extra exercise we needed chasing Sage around all day and ams finally made a leash for her out of runners. It was a great day at Vantage, a great day anywhere: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weekend_Climberz Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Rock sweet rock. It's that time of year again. How were the crowds over there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catbirdseat Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 If crowded means seeing other people, then yes. If it means getting on the route you want, it all depends on whether you climb trad or sport. Trad climbers seldom have to wait in line except for three or four routes: Air Guitar, PIYP, Crossing the Threshold and sometimes SVAAM.

ams Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Nice TR Rob! I felt like I got my extra exercise trying to keep up with yer super speedy long legs and tracking down the elusive Hen House wall! But a good time was had by all (including Sage), and it was nice meeting you, CBS, MCash, and bwr. Alicia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
