Trip: Minuteman Tower (WA Pass) - East Face

 

Date: 7/16/2007

 

Trip Report:

Had a good day on this route (East Face of Minuteman Tower, 7 pitches, 5.10a). Not the greatest route in the world given the ugly apron pitches and painful descent, but definitely some great climbing on two of the 7 pitches.

Not much info about that route out there, so we put together a detailed report with pictures, route and descent descriptions and gear recommendations.

Find the report on our website (www.ericandlucie.com).

That pitch that climbs through the big roof and up onto the 5.8 handcrack is nothing short of fabulous. We actually rapped from there back to the ground via double rope rappels...good, low-stress way to do it without missing any of the good climbing.

 

I agree with your assessment of the route, btw...

 

nice photos!
