spotly Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 puzzlr over on NWHikers posted this picture of the south side of Argonaut. There's a 5.4 South Face route mentioned elsewhere. Can someone point out the start in this pic? Looks like fun slab throughout - I'm thinking the 5.4 line is on the rigth side of the pic? Thanks.

Dave A. Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Beckey mentions a 5.3 route up the south face, but no pictures or topo. A quick google search yielded a trip report with no photos but described the route as directly below the summit. The face looks pretty friendly in your photo,shouldn't be much trouble finding a reasonable route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

genepires Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 do you pitch out 5.3?? jackass. take the attitude to the spray forum. technically, any 5.whatever is usually belayed as that is what the definition of 5th class is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaskadskyjKozak Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 do you pitch out 5.3?? yes, since the consequences of a fall are unacceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
