Comments: Add the subsections and then let me know which routes to move where. I'll take care of the moving for you.

Comments: This area needs to be split up into subsections -- it contains lots of routes not really near the Watchtower and in easily separated sections.

Comments: The 1st bolt (crux) isn't exactly inspiring. Hard to read is a major understatement, that things is ridiculously hard.

Comments: R in its current state. Lots of opportunities to break a hold and beef it. If it happens before reaching the 1st pin you're in the trees. If it happens before the bolt you might keep your ankles. If it happens on the way to the 2nd pin you'd better kick as hard as you can, that way you'd avoid tapping the ledges at the base and end up somewhere in more trees.

Comments: A selection of no nuts and cams from BD .4 to 3 with doubles on #2 and #3 would be more appropriate. It's a handcrack after all... Tape useful. Helmet for the belayer who will get doused by a shower of choss. The rap tree is dead, the massive pine tree 20' back on the ledge will force your ropes in a slot and get them stuck, rap off a small solid pine to the right. Beware of the huge dead pine and large pieces of choss ready to be dislodged when you pull the rope. As grungy as it loo... more >>

Comments: I broke a huge crystal off this a few years back, and took a nice whip. Seemed harder than 10a after that...but I'm a cupcake.

Comments: you can combine this with hellfire for one of the longest pitches in fergy and still rap off with one 60m rope.

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Ferguson Canyon : The Cathedral : Skinny Len Crimps (5.11a) By: triznuty When: Sep 28, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: Good fun must-do route. I also stayed slightly right between the first couple bolts.. Which seemed like the natural way. But if you want to get to the third clip, you'll have to bust out onto the crimpy face at some point. I wouldn't of wanted to of blown that third clip either...

Comments: So, Brian, what say ye about the bolts, then? Ok or not?

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Ferguson Canyon : The Watchtower : Repeat Offender (5.11a) By: Alec When: Sep 27, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: This needs its own anchors. Traversing left after the last bolt is chossy, lame, and creates all kinds of rope drag. Otherwise, it's another pretty damn fun route on this wall!

Comments: My partner and I both thought this was a bit soft for 5.10d. There are plenty of rests all the way up. Unfortunately it's a bit overbolted.

Comments: Tried this today and got sucked to the right after the 2nd bolt where a good hold appears. Was fun but not the route I was going for, next time I guess. Could this be a new variation? LOL

Comments: A #3 and a .4 + a cordelette help make the belay considerably less shitty. The route is even better than Concrete Jungle. 6 stars.

Comments: Bring your best set of crimping fingers for that one. Stout.

Comments: Awesome route. Great moves, great gear and longer than most in Ferguson. Thanks for putting it up. Single rack to #2 camalot. But does anyone have beta on where to go on the topout? After clipping the last bolt before the chains, heading straight up above we found sandy slopers with no feet - stout for 5.11. Seemed like going right would have put us on drunk punk oi and going left using the rail would share the 10a sport finish...
