LOL.

I guess they're trying to mask the fact that Robin was part of the FA team on The Feather - he's going under the alias "Rubin"

My advice is to tape up for the Feather pitch, also bring three or four #2 Metolius cams (yellow TCU). Also routes showing as projects are done and there is a topo somewhere out there, they all go at about 5.11. The climb straight from the second belay of the Feather (before 11d traverse) looked great!

The Feather pitch 11d rating is a bit of a sandbag imo

Saw someone on one of these lines from my house the other day... look cool! I have another new line spotted too.... cool area!

Bob, you can't call it the "Squaw" anymore, you have to call it "Slhany" in order to be more respectful to Native women - you stupid polack.
