Location: CO : Boulder : Flatirons : North : Gregory Canyon (including T... : ... : 2nd Pinnacle, NW Corner (5.0) By: John M Brooks When: Oct 11, 2007 | view comment >> |
Comments: Rate this fun route 5.1 due to 1st move and final face moves. Rappel from eye-bolt down same path. Getting rope down a bit tricky from that angle.

Location: CO : Boulder : Eldorado Canyon SP : The Wind Tower : Wind Tower - SW Face : Tigger (5.5) By: John M Brooks When: Aug 14, 2007 | view comment >> |
Comments: Great variety : face, lieback, undercling, roof, crack; just enough to make this 5.6. Great holds/feet in conjunction with the right moves.

Comments: Fun route with good rest stops. Last portion of upper dihedral requires key stemming sequence. I think route is tougher than the 5.2 if you strictly follow the corner all the way up.

Comments: First chockstone made me nervous (really plans on staying there?). Did come across giant loose boulder at top. Rating 5.3 because of nice rest stops, but move through slot above cave really tough. First tried stemming on left side, but had better luck going right up the inside face on the right. Had to haul up my pack and rack from the cave (could not fit thru slot). Great views into the amphitheater and on top of East Bench. Downclimbed back to eyebolt and rapped (left backup sling).
