value village - Leavenworth

[Tyson.g]

Anyone been up to the value village crags?

wondering if it is worth the steep climb up.

Looks pretty cool.

[Tyson.g]

No one has EVER been there?

I really want to know if the routes lead up to their multi star ratings.

nope, sorry, but if you go please report back; I was wondering the same thing myself last weekend.

[Tyson.g]

Will do.

Ron & Brad have put up some of the best L-worth routes of the last decade. They also weren't afraid of a bit of hiking. I am sure you'll find the routes great as long as the approach doesn't kill you.

[Tyson.g]

I am definitely not afraid of or likely to die from the approach.

thanks for the input Puget.

May have to bore the CC masses with a Leavenworth cragging tr.

Three + years later, I finally made the trek up and what a trek it is.

 

The climbing is sweet, steep, varied and fun.

 

The bivy is super sweet, particularly after the effort of schlepping those loads up there.

 

I can't believe I am typing this but I will definitely go back again. Once my legs stop being sore.
