stevetimetravlr Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 In the route description for Head Case, it says only 2 bolts. The route I saw had at least 5 bolts on it. None of the route descriptions lists 5 bolts. Quote
JosephH Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 I wasn't saying it was Head Case, just that Head Case is a great and particularly interesting route. It isn't Head Case or Siege Tactics so it's one of the other newer lines. Quote
billcoe Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 So no one knows what that route is on the west face that has 5 bolts on it??? Looks stellar. Did it look like this? Ivan check yer PMs Quote
stevetimetravlr Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 It looked more like a 5.12 sport route, except a couple sections of gear right off the ground and possibly higher up. Im sure its one of the new routes listed, I'll just have to measure how far off the trail it is next time Im there. Quote
JosephH Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 I sent Shane an email asking about. Will post up when he replies. Quote

stevetimetravlr Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Hey guys, on the El Cap report it looks like Plaid made El Cap Tower today on the Nose, and was climbing strongly all day according to Tom. Here is the link to the report! Go Scott go!!! http://www.elcapreport.com/content/elcap-report-92610 Quote

denalidave Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 The Dude Plaid abides! Think of the pounds shed if he clearcut them nostrils! Might even help the vids, too! Quote
denalidave Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 *cough* Not that the vids needed any help. Quote
stevetimetravlr Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Bailed. Dang. They were rocking so hard. Quote
powderhound Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Hey Ivan/Eric and I climbed Jensens Ridge this last weekend. When you finish the 11a pitch that makes you want to puke you are right below a set of double cracks that are crappy looking. Ivan/Eric explained that is the regular way to finish. To the left of these is a beautiful arcing and overhanging fist to hand crack that arc left to right and joins the standard finish. I climbed it and it was amazing....anyone else wanna help with a grade? I didnt onsight so I beleive it would be harder to do it without hanging or falling. Thinking 10c/d? Quote
geoff Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Wholy shit I thought he was in for sure. Suck. Quote
