Location: CA : San Diego County : El Cajon Mountain : Left Wall : Leonids (5.9) By: ccross When: Jun 25, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: You no longer clip the anchor to Meteor on P2. Someone added a bolt for Leonids a few feet left of that anchor. It took us 4 rappels with a single 60m rope to get to the ground instead of 5. From the top, we skipped the anchor at the top of the Triton Tower and rappeled to the mid anchor on Triton, then the low anchor on Triton, overhang rappel and a little left, last one to the ground.

Comments: A rattler was on the trail this Saturday not too far from the Standard Deviation Area. We gave it a minute to slither away before passing.

Location: CA : High Desert : New Jack City : Boy Scout Wall : Three Giant Steps (5.10a) By: ccross When: May 5, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: The Southern California Sport Climbing book labels this route as Make a Way (763). The route name Three Giant Steps (764) would make much more sense, I am assuming MP is correct.

Location: CA : San Diego County : Mission Gorge : Middle Earth : Dimrill Stair (5.8) By: ccross When: Oct 5, 2008 | view comment >> |
Comments: The San Diego County Climbing Guide by Dave Kennedy and Chris Hubbard suggest this a 5.7, and the pdf guide by Art Messier suggests 5.8. Shares anchor with a sport route up and left 15' from top of crack.
