Comments: You can skip the bolt and place gear in the crack to the left. Kind of thin but fun.

Comments: I love the hand jam. I couldn't commit to the right hand below the hand jam the last time I was there. It really sucked because I had climbed it at least three other times.

Comments: There were two numbers on the sign 303-838-2720 and 800-571-5938. All the flyers were gone. Buy it Tony, then let everyone climb it again.

Comments: Lead this route tonight after work. It was my second time on it, the first was following my friend Walter about six years ago. Nice fun route not an easy 5.9.

Comments: Fun route, my first in the area. This route will let you know just how well your shoes stick to the rock at Thunder.

Comments: I climbed this route yesterday, it was a pretty good route. Gear up to a #6 and take doubles of #3 and #4. There can be some run outs depending on your gear placements. Less than an hour approach with mountain biking.

Comments: I agree with Eric, I think I may have even used a #6.

Comments: This was a very exciting pitch. When you go left onto the face it is a little run out and there really is a lot of lichen.

Comments: The map in Hubbel's book shows this area to be east of Da Butts when it is really west of Da Butts. I have not climbed there yet, but it looks like a fun place.

Comments: I wish I read about Joshua's mistake before going up the Standard route yesterday. I thought I was on the hardest 5.10 slab in the Platte. Did a little aid climbing at each bolt but still had to make some free moves between bolts. Took a couple long falls. The bolts really look like they are part of the Standard Route. Nice job Kevin, I hope to free it sometime down the road.

Comments: Very sad. I know it is not the best ice around, but it is always nice to get some quick climbing in with a two minute approach.

Comments: Jay, I also drove down from Bailey and blew off work. I did get tickets and they did not start selling them early at Neptunes. I was about the sixth or seventh in line and I waited an hour for them to open. It is very lame that the online sales did start early.

Comments: I lead this about a year ago. I call the area Tweaker Rocks because there was a guy living there cooking meth about 6 years ago. I call the line to the right One Last Fix 5.9. It was my last climb of the day after bouldering a few hours in the area.

Comments: I've climbed that problem on the right too, pretty fun ow practice. The 25-30 ft. one you describe sounds like another one that I've done but with a rope. I don't mean to down grade it but it didn't feel like 5.10 to us. I'm sure it felt that hard not being roped up and getting pretty far off the ground.
