nice pics timmy, did you do the section that goes through "hole in the ground"?

[gapertimmy]

we put in at rome, and took out before the reservoir. i don't really remember a hole in the ground, but just lots of really big basalt cliffs and 2 kegs of mirror pond and kind green sagebrushes

I was in Rome at the put in two nights ago on my way back from Bishop & Death Valley. I was thinking of all the bullet stone down the canyon whilst fading off to sleep to the sound of the cows across the river and the sparkle of the stars. Looks great!

Anyone know anything about routes in leslie gulch? when i was there i only found a couple of old looking routes(star dryives and the likes, with mabey kim schmitzs hangers?), then one wall that looked like it might have been chipped... I assume its probably boise climbers in the know. whos got the beta, this place is by far cooler looking than smith and 10 times bigger. but no bolts!

there's some very cool looking rock out there

 

 

 

 

(I know nothing about routes in Leslie Gulch, though)

[letsroll]

Dan maybe we need to head out that way

Is leslie gulch an old tony yanior playground I thought I had read in an city fo rocks guide and they had this section in the back that had crags in the area and I think leslie gulch was included as a tony chip ground. But at this point my memory is a little foggy, anyone else have any info to validate or invalidate my claim.

[dan_forester]

yeah, will, we should talk about that.

 

Leslie Gulch = new cc.com Flavor of the Month? thanks for the stoke, corvallis!

i think your right, i remember reading/hearing that somewhere too. thanks for sparking my memory. i'm pretty sure thats what i was looking at then... so who wants to go back there for a few days with me??

I think that Tony lives here in bozeman, maybe I can get in touch with him and try and get some info to post.
