Olsons guide has YW listed as 5.9, if that is the case then the SE corner (which is listed as 5.7) is 5.6.

[Cobra_Commander]

OMG how dare you

[JosephH]

I'd say it's by and large a 5.7 with an occasional moment of 5.8 (p1), 5.9 (p2, p3), and a 5.10ish one-move boulder problem (p4).

So if there is one move of 5.10a. Then it has to be rated 5.10a.....

 

 

[JosephH]

Yeah, I'd agree with that. But how many people actually do that move versus the slab walk-around to the left?

[ivan]

how many times have ya'll kicked the rating of yw aroudn?

[kevbone]

You missing the best part of the entire 450 foot line if you skip out left IMO.

How many times have you been reminded to lead by example with your spelling? Teacher right?

[geoff]

He is a Camas teacher after all.

 

But really, only true masters of the language have license to twist it.

[ivan]

yes, the interwebs are clearly the place to let one's diction n' grammar shine

 

highly contrived to call yw 5.10, even 5.9 really

coming from you that is true considering you freely admit you go left at the bolt.

[JosephH]

I suppose it's possible the variation of the p4 crux I do is harder than necessary and different from some 5.9 variation I missed that others may do, but it is secure throughout the move though definitely a solid 5.10 move.

DaaaBulls! DaaaaBears!! DaBeaconnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!

a climb is contrived if you can super-easily avoid the difficulty that you hang the rating on - skipping the .10 part of p4 is so easy i imagine must folks don't even realize it could be harder

[JosephH]

I wouldn't argue the contrived point by any means given it's a shuffle to the left and you're up. How was it done on the FA? Up and over or stage left?

Maybe, either way, going straight up over the bolt has all the excitement in it. IMO. 350 feet up with no handholds. Yikes…..super fun move. I think I have gone left 2 times in 14 years. It did take me a while to sack up and lead the 4th pitch because of that move.

 

Good times to be had.

 

I give that move 10.a

 

[geoff]

If we bump it to 10b it will really help my scorecard.

[JosephH]

...350 feet up with no handholds. ... I give that move 10.a

There are definitely small, but very positive handholds on the variation I do of it. I agree with the 10a rating on the move, though.

[denalidave]

[kevbone]

[denalidave]

Since were changing ratings now, I vote Blownout should be 10d.

Not that it will help my scorecard as I always get my ass blownout on the damn thing anyway...

[billcoe]

1st pitch or 2nd?

 

 

How many points on 8a do ya get for 10 laps up the SE Corner?
