Comments: Brent i put the bolts and anchors in this route. i will go up and change the anchors. as far as the third bolt there is a big jug up and just right of the undercling. it makes the third clip and this move very easy. the crux is then moving your feet out of the groove at the last bolt.

Location: SD : Mount Rushmore National Mem... : South Seas : Reef 1 : Way Cool Junior (5.7) By: Eric Fischer When: Jun 17, 2006 | view comment >> |
Comments: I was at this climb a couple of days ago. a guy came walking by and mentioned that he was the F.A. of way cool junior. i asked him if he knew anything about bolts getting chopped on it and he replied that who ever added the bolts did not get his approval so he took them out. hopefully this can clear up what happened to the missing bolts.

Comments: This is a very fun route with a good friction move about half way up. good climb to introduce people to black hills friction. having the anchors lower is nice.

Comments: this is a great route. it is a very safe lead for those who are leading 5.8s all cliping stances are solid. but of course i am 6'3". it might be a bit of a reach in some spots for shorter climbers.
