Location: UT : Moab Area : Island In The Sky : Staggering Rock
By: Bryan Bornholdt When: Jan 14, 2006 | view comment >> | Comments: Crusher, your reply is deeply appreciated and I agree with the richness of the experience that the serious nature in a remote setting provides. My buddy reprimanded me for sticking my neck out on it and rightly so. We had agreed on a fun trip and the second tower was hard to pass on. Staggering Rock was a classic case of venturing into rarely traveled terrain.

Indeed, it is far more serious and the second pitch was probably the most serious free climbing I have done in many years.

It requires a wide range of gear for the free climbing and I used a triple set of brass offsets on the thin clean aid, primarily the larger ones. We used TCUS, Aliens, etc. This is a heads-up route but is enjoyable for experienced parties. The "death blocks" can be avoided by staying to the right but it is awkward to traverse in from the left. We had no trouble rapping the route wi... more >>

Location: UT : Moab Area : Fisher Towers : Kingfisher
By: Bryan Bornholdt When: May 24, 2004 | view comment >> | Comments: This is a grand experience for anyone inclined to go beyond the Ancient Arts realm. Having done this route many times, it should be noted that the quality of the crux placements (third pitch) is diminishing. In fact, immediately off the third belay, the crack leading to the first fixed piece is getting very worn. It readily goes clean but hammering destroys the clean placements.
Be prepared to feel like you are sticking your neck out a little on this route. But most of all, savor being in t... more >>
