Matt King going for it.  Can't remember the name of the route, but I believe it goes at V8?

Comments: My fat a$$ broke another hold off. One of the jugs in the beginning is gone. So, I suppose, that's my effort to keep the climbing more in the grade. Won't change much though, but we'll see what I pull off next time.

Comments: Bit of history: this was the first route we climbed out here. It was awesome, and a day to remember. It was a little disappointing to see so much lose rock at the top of the pinnacle, I know we both wanted to stand on top. We found a "great" 1/4 bolt up there (probably from the Baker era), and made an anchor to get down. The next time up, we went with a drill to install an anchor and start putting in routes, which ended up with us getting rained out and bumming. I remember feeling like we w... more >>

Comments: A really great route involving some wild pockets in the middle. The rating on this was a consensous rating, but might feel stiff for shorter folks. Traversing the lip out over the roof, in my honest opinion, is a really exciting and fun finish (three stars). Heading straight up is substantially easier (two stars). So if you're gonna do it more than once, try both ways and see what you think.

Either way you slice it, this route is nicely overhung, and pretty varried on some of the nicest r... more >>

Comments: Ohhhh yeah. The best, and only, warm up route for the area. I might have climbed this route almost 10 times, and it's keeps getting more and more fun!!!! If your climbing at this grade, I would recommend this route highly.

Comments: I guess I must have found all the jugs, and managed to skip the bad holds. Perhaps, someone with less reach, or shorter than me might find it more difficult. It was originally rated .11a anyway . . . so .10d isn't that far off.

Comparing this to Planet Eater, I think this route is easier. I would imagine with wet epoxy holds though, this would feel considerably more difficult.

Comments: CLIMBING IS FUN! Right?

For what its worth, in my opinon, the V7 seam to the left feels harder than "big bad wolf". I'd agree the crux of Jewl Theif is the top, but I think it feels harder when you do all the hard moves to get there. It's a little more relaxed using the jugs on "big bad wolf". But whatever, the climbing is fun and the rock is good.

I like where Joe's heads at. We've obviously gotten attached to our local boulders, and hopefully we can all co-exist in peace. There is st... more >>
