Trip: Three O' Clock Rock - Revolver

 

Date: 9/22/2010

 

Trip Report:

This is more of a shout out to Otto for refurbing the route. We only got to climb the first three pitches due to water on route:

Can't wait to try it again when dry. With more traffic Revolver will really clean up.

 

FYI, after two dry days and partly cloudy skies, there were plenty of running seeps on the north buttress.

 

Gear Notes:

Blow drier

 

Approach Notes:

Approached via 1st pitch of Silent Running moving left after first bolt on second pitch to reach the anchors at the base of the first pitch of Revolver.

Good route!

Last summer we encountered a few avoidable wet spots the day after a thundershower. A good rule might be to give it a week after significant precip.

It varies greatly from one route to the next. Silent Running usually dries up pretty quick but Revolver not so much.

Glad you enjoyed it! I was out elsewhere in Darrington that day. It was a beautiful day to climb, if you could stay in the dry sections.
