Off_White Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 In a thread last year Alex mentioned the Bunker-Preiss route on the NW Buttress of Sloan. Anyone have any info about this route? Quote
Off_White Posted February 17, 2018 Author Posted February 17, 2018 That's great, thanks. Looks like Steph Abegg's work? Quote
Dannible Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 I did that route a few summers ago. It's a good Cascadian blue-collar adventure kind of thing. Some choss and vertical bush climbing, and some good rock. We intentionally got a late start and bivied on a ledge somewhere in the middle just for fun. I think the crux went at about 5.10; I don't really remember, but I think my girlfriend led it and she's pretty resistant to french freeing. 1 Quote

Off_White Posted February 26, 2018 Author Posted February 26, 2018 No, I don't think she would mind. After I asked I noticed the first one has her name on it, answered my question. I think when in doubt best to give credit, but I have the sense she's all about getting information out there. Quote
