Comments: Fun route. Approach: Easy quick rap from straight across the gully.
Route: I led it in 1 pitch (60m) and skipped a few bolts. Rap in 2

Comments: There are 3 routes left of MBF,all of which start on a ramp about 40'
left and 15 up. The 1st is Mollie's Malecone, a trad route up a shallow crack that protects well with aliens and med. camalots, save a small piece for the horizonal 3/4s up. A bolt protects the white slab below the crack. 5:8+ 90' to chains.
The next route left is Riley's Revenge, sport 8 bolts, 5:9 100'to the chains.
Next route left is Paislie Pockets, up the slab to a right facing corner up to the horizonal, traverse righ... more >>

Comments: Basically a roped boulder problem. Feels V3/4ish, so 12a doesn't seem like a stretch. Hard to give a route grade, though.
I thought it was very fun with nice movement on neat holds. Well worth climbing. Better with the proper low start.

Comments: This route can easily be top-roped with a 60M rope. It's on slippery, slabby white sandstone with long spaces between bolts.

Comments: I agree, in a way, with both of the above posts. This is an amazing route with great technical movement. It is, however, very sandbagged in my opinion. I think this is especially true if you are on the shorter side. To me it felt 12- and a very tough onsight at that grade. It is consistently tough from the get go until the top of the brown rock. This may be why the OP didn't care for it. The sandbag gave his ego a boot to the groin. I know it did mine. It doesn't seem fair, though, to give a ro... more >>

Comments: As of 11/7/09, most of the routes on the right portion of the cliff have had anchor replacement/additions. Native Son has new anchors. Good Morning (The Burrito) has its' own anchors and no longer shares with Pain Check. Pain Check now has its' own anchors. Rise and Whine and The Healer now have their own anchors and no longer share chains. The Healer has also had ALL bolts replaced.
Shape of Things and Where Egos Dare have not seen updates as I ran out of hardware. I will replace these a... more >>

Comments: The best moderate in the Sandstone Quarry! The pockets are just killer and are made to be climbed on. Great find!

Comments: A fun route! Nice job Michelle and Richard. Don't add another bolt, it is not needed.

Comments: I agree with O'Brien. Travis found a gem of a route - really cool holds and movement. 5.9 is right on. A great route.

Comments: Nice route...definitely not a boulder problem. The link up of the first 3 bolts of this to the last bolt and anchor of the route on the right seemed to be more around 10b/c, IMHO.

Comments: Been a guide here for years never knew about the route. Just got off the route with my son Adam who is 7. His first multi pitch route, just me and my boy just a perfect evening in the red rocks. Why you you rappel the approach? Just walk in with a 10 foot 3rd class move doen the gully from the route.

Comments: Felt a little harder than Yak crack or sweet pain to me. Also rock was a little crumbly, clips were a little balancy. Do your belayer a favor and double check your stance before you call out rope. otherwise a cool route to do while in red rocks.
