Location: AZ : Northern Arizona : Flagstaff Crags : Hobo Jungle : Tin Roof Sunday (5.11d) By: JJ Schlick When: May 18, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: This is one of those routes where a little beta goes a long way. In the spirit of that the boulder problem crux turning the roof is burly and somewhat confusing during an onsight. Especially if no ones been on her in a while... I left a bomber fixed wire above the roof ( the next piece of gear after the bolt). It doesn't interfere with other TCU options or your fingerr jams, but will most likely make this section more enjoyable. I also thought that clipping a single biner on the bolt might help ... more >>

Comments: Funky boulder problem start... Dirty alternate start to the Left? Once in the crack proper it seemed the best rock wanted to accommodate #1 camalots. I easily would have placed three. Didn't use the #3. Good stemming stances in the steep part. A crack jug haul....

Comments: Well now that you all have your different ways into the canyon, the Forest Service has decided to open the Kelly Canyon Rd access. The original way in is all clear.

Comments: Great climbing to about the 3/4 mark, where the rock quality goes south and so does the movement.

Comments: Really good movement on this stellar little pitch. Lots of good wires, and like 5.10+ to a great V3ish crux. .11+/.12-...

Comments: I think you are right. Bonnie did it after a foot hold broke making it harder than the original.

Comments: Ran it by the powers that be and we decided to let Renee's post stand as is. No harm, no foul, as long as it is not posted all over the place on the Cochise pages.

Comments: Thanks for sharing your story Joel, and it is that exact scenario that the FAist foresaw and tried to avoid by placing the bolts. No one likes to see bolts next to what looks like a perfect crack, but this stone is not Wingate, and no matter how solid it looks on the outside, it is all more or less sugar on the inside. In my world I would rather have a "bolted crack" than lose such a classic line because a handful of individuals want a more pure experience. Once again I would have to say the bol... more >>

Comments: Had some good times at this mini crag back in the day. If only you could get this stone in the 100' range... If you are in this corner of Iowa, this is the place for a decent pump.

Comments: To whom it may concern, Seriously people, quit running off with the fucking anchor biners. Aside from being a douche baggy thing to do, it shows a severe lack of respect to the community, and especially to those individuals who put in the effort to establish new lines. The reason I put those big lockers on the anchors is because they will last a hell of a long time, and every body gets to benefit from them.
