Comments: Here's a video for this project we were trying today. It will be really quite hard. With a lower start possible but well into the double digits I think.

Comments: Chip, my description was from an old timer and it is a high quality problem as I describe it (I have done it, although not today). It's interesting that your guide doesn't seem to have the problem I describe: maybe I'm just not reading your guide right. I'd like to know the correct name, as it's a great problem IMHO.

Comments: pfwein ... Your description for Reverse Consideration is incorrect. 39 problems on Cloud Shadow Wall and a couple additional variations are documented in full with descriptions, FA information, photos & beta here:

The ~800 problem Flagstaff Mountain Bouldering Guide remains a work in progress, but 2/3 of it is complete and may be found here:

Comments: Just as Roy mentioned, there is a hueco in the left wall at the upper crux that is difficult to see from the ground. I tagged up a #4 C4 (IE new style) Camalot and it was bomber. Definitely takes the edge off the top runout and makes the route reasonable for someone solid at the grade, probably PG13 if you are persistent. Thanks to Tony Bubb for getting me psyched up to lead this today!

Comments: Did the route, had a blast, the final 5.7 pitch is fantastic climbing, 5.7,5.9 whatever, it's a stellar pitch. Moutaineering with sport bolts, fun fun fun. We rapped the route, you can learn a lot by doing this, don't be lame and short change your self on this valuable experience.

Comments: Mike, thanks for the bit history. F. A. information is pretty lacking save you, Jeff, and Jim Disney. It would be great to talk sometime and document what you know of the history of climbing in the Big Thompson canyon. It is a mildly popular place to climb now days sporting over 70 routes in the narrows alone. Any chance you have any pictures to post? Allen

Comments: Kinda liked this route not as bad as i thought it would be from the guide book. I've clipped far worse bolts and much more runout stuff. Give it a try.

Comments: This is a great route. I would have to say that it is one of the best face routes that I have done at Potash. If only it were 100 feet long or longer.

Comments: Interesting bug in the consensus rating algorithm. V grades and 5.whatever grades don't seem to mix. The folks with who write up these algorithms are working on this one.

Comments: Hadn't climbed this route in quite a few years, and someone on the ground told me that 'avoid rope drag on the last pitch by climbing 10-15 feet higher than the ledge just after the crux.'
So I did this and it puts you right underneath the big hanging flake corner. The crack in the corner at the '2nd' ledge is very hollow. I had to tap around for quite a while to find sound placements to belay up my second.
I would suggest belaying just after the crux at the first ledge.

Comments: I climbed it for the first time on gear today and thought it was excellent. Fun mild climbing with plenty of bomber placements. I didn't feel any flexing holds. In my opinion it is better than "Slippery When Wet".

By: pfwein When: 8 hours ago | view comment >> |
Comments: Someone should add Reverse Consideration: I'll try to do that when I take a camera there. Basically you go up to the first ledge with your left hand, and then directly to the "left trending rail" with your right hand. You don't use what is described as the bad crimp. Getting your feet arranged properly is important.

Comments: Were you on this route today?
I may have spoken with you from the ground after taking a detour on my way down from the Prow.
If so, good on you for getting out, despite all the wetness.
