Trip: Tumwater Canyon - Clem's Holler

 

Date: 5/1/2010

 

Trip Report:

Spent a sunny Saturday cragging with Tim, Ian and Amanda. The list:

 

Nettlesome, p1 & 2 (5.9)

Honky's Lament, p1 (5.8)

Gun Rack, p1 (5.9)

Poultry in Motion, p1 (5.10c)

Playin' Possum, p1 (5.8)

Nettlesome, p1 (5.9)

Perils of Pauline (5.11c) (TR)

 

Sent everything clean except for Perils of Pauline - worked the crux several times on TR, but eventually resorted to pulling past it on the rope. Felt good onsiting Poultry in Motion though.

Gear Notes:

All quickdraws except for small rack to 2" on Honky's Lament

 

Approach Notes:

No big deal

Good times! Next time, be sure to do the 2nd pitch of Honkey's. IMO it is still the best pitch of climbing at Clem's.

Nice job, it was a great day out there! I was one of the party of four that walked under you guys. We warmed up on the 5.7 and 5.8 on Retardant Rock and then his up the Special Spot. The Javelin, Opening Ceremonies, and Semi-final were all classic and super fun!
