corvallisclimb Posted April 12, 2010 Author Share Posted April 12, 2010 I don't really know what we did haha, Alan put it in the book as this... "Adams/Emde Variation (5.8 X) Mixed to 3 inches. You can make and already bad route much worse by following this dangerous variation. From the anchor atop The Quickie, step left past two bolts before stepping back right to a flake system. Climb a freaky, hollow sounding flake the size of a Boeing 737's wing and traverse left across a crumbling slab, arrange a sketchy belay anchor. Traverse far left on easy rock (5.4) before joining the third pitch of the regular route." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billcoe Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 LOL! I got it. The raincoat is the giveaway....that and the name on the tag. I don't think I would have gotten it without cheating, have done that route perhaps 4-6 times...maybe more. It's a good one when you go to Smith and find the unexpected rain.
