ericandlucie Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 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). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goatboy Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
