Comments: Best of my knowledge 'Scott' never used Buttonhead Spikes! Also most folks I spoke with don't have very accurate info about the history of this place.If anyone has the most accurate info about the history of FA's here its Scott.

Comments: This route has been here long enough for many too enjoy over the years, so removing its existence now would be kinda stupid. I'd bet a poll would lean towards leaving it alone. If a route crosses a trad route as this one does it should have been removed a long time ago.

Comments: Slab technique really helps on this one. Pretty much sustained down low with a short slab crux up top. Great climb!

Comments: Thank's to "Scott Ayer's" for getting out the proper info and some history for this Awesome Wall! As noted this place is very complex and would have been nearly impossible to figure out without firsthand knowledge.
The only thing I really remember about this wall is following most of these routes! With some professional guidance I managed to make my way up some of the harder climb's here while "Pouring sweat, grunting and cursing." Oh ya, falling too.

Comments: I guess that was you "Guy's" I saw hiking in sunday morning? I was riding my bike up the access road. Still working on getting that old knee strong again.
I doubt anything will change out there? Talking about making an old hardcore trad area more accessable most likely won't happen here, but you never know who is willing to make it happen.

Comments: Just because it was rated a "Bomb" by the FA party doesn't mean everyone will hate it. I have rated some routes a "Bomb" myself in the past and a few Climber's said they enjoyed the routes with the "Bomb rating" regardless. However Braxton I understand your comment, Hell Climber's and FAer's are not all that normal in my opinion!

Comments: I like bolt's 3ft apart or closer. That way I can yard my way through all the crux's when I get my old ass out climbing again.

Comments: Hey! That little thing look's unprotected, I'd at least use a Lambskin. Great personal photo and it seem's to be getting a lot of attention already in a short time. I think you should place a bolt there though!
Oh ya, forgot to mention you Folk's in "Sierra Vista" are as crazy as us in Tucson.

Comments: Don't know how high Peppersauce is, but I've been told that those Black Rattler's live 5,000 Ft and above. Seen one at the Summit Crag's and one at the Prison Camp. They sure are pretty in an eerie way. Actually named a climb after one at the Bugspring wall. Great shot of that Beauty!

Comments: This area is downhill NE of the BoneYard! The area has some nice route's with modern hardware and has a lot of potential for more! Eric Rhicard is right about the approach though! I remember (The Steepest Bushwack From Hell) Need's some work to make the area worthwhile. Undocumented area's with no trail's seem like a good thing to some Folk's. May head down there again someday when I feel motivated.
