summitchaserCJB Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 Trip: Castle Rock - Saber, Damnation Crack, and Angel Crack. Date: 2/22/2010 Trip Report: Todd and I headed over to L worth for the day. We wanted to hit up some multipitch but one look at Midnight Rock and we decided otherwise. We first headed up Saber to warm up. I've had my eye on Damnation for a long long time. I decided to do it, despite the fact that it was 30 degrees when we left the car and the route was in the shade. I made it up with no serious problems. Gear isn't really too big of an issue on that route, surprisingly. You just need a comprehensive rack including small cams and nuts. Seriously a great route and a test of the leader's ability. We headed a few feet over to Angel Crack because Todd hadn't led it yet. He did pretty well and led it a couple times. I also led it clean. We headed back to this side at 3:30 pm. Todd has a few picture of me leading Damnation. I took some video of him leading Angel. Maybe he'll cross post. Gear Notes: Full rack for Damnation. Small cams and one number 2 or three for the upper section for Angel. Approach Notes: Walk up the trail. Quote
nkane Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 I can't believe the Northwest is sunny and nice while it's raining here in New York.... This seems wrong. Quote
