RuMR Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 what's a good cliff to bring kids to? preferably vert to slightly BELOW vert...they don't mind hiking... Thanks Rudy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrogdortheBurninator Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 The one above the trestle at deception (write off rock - I think) is one of the better ones for kids. Gritscone (at Farside) could also be good as it is uber-unintimidating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattp Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Yes, the trestle is good. Kids seem to like the trestle itself, apart from the crags there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashw_justin Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 You sure you don't want to throw them on some 5.13's right away, so they can start appearing in magazines when they're 15, and then spend their twenties cruising around smokin dope and working proj's? ... oh wait, that's spray I guess... sorry yeah, the trestle is nice, but maybe too easy...

You better hope those guys have zero self-respect. Current Self-respect meter reading: 0 There's also a few nice short climbs over by We Did rock. The one's on We Did are all 5.9's, but to the left more there are a few short easy routes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kix Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 I just gave my self about 8-10 weeks rest. that should have been enuff to allow me to climb every day the rest of the year. right? otherwise all is well and I am HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY to be pulling again. still going a bit easy tho. the fear of pain is fresh.

tomtom Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Just drag them over to Index and they can do laps on City Park. Their little paws should jam the pin scars just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
