Raoul Duke Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 Hey all: I'm planning a Bugs trip this summer, and I'm looking for a grade V to aim for...something a little more commiting than the Becky-Chouinard, maybe something with more of a "wall" feel, but also as few pitches of 5.11 as possible, and definately none of that A3 crap. Anyone have any favorites that fit the bill? Tanks in advance... Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 Try Sunshine Crack on the NNE face of Snowpatch. I think it's only a IV though. Every kind of crack climbing you can think of and think there's only a pitch of two of 5.11. Quote

Howser...how's the aid on those "11+" pitches mentioned in the guidebook for All Along the Watchtower? Would I be leapfrogging bomber cam placements or playing with micro nuts for 2 hours at a time?
