Comments: Hah, I figured if I were going to be in radiology, I may as try to find a place that had half decent weather. And residencies are equal parts slave labor everywhere. :) Also, I'm close to a few half-decent climbing areas. Ironically, though, you're "closer" to climbing than I am; the nearest "real" cliff is 2+ hours. Then again, they are some pretty decent cliffs. Give your patients to someone else for a week and come visit! ;) JW

Comments: Chris E, can you help me delete the photo of the old parking spot? It has a comment on it, hence I don't have "the power." F Skemp will be updating with a nice new beta map when he is ready. JW

Comments: "X" rating here is a bit exaggerated. If you fell from the top, and put a pad on the rock, with a good spotter, you'd be fine.

Comments: I think that the true line on this follows directly along the bolt line. We were able to do the the route without breaking left into Blackout, and although you can traverse off the bolt line into larger holds, the direct line is hard, sustained knob climbing. Felt more mid-12, but I'm new to Tuolumne so perhaps I'm just weak. Fun line, although more interesting in its technical sequencing than much else.

Comments: Nope. Permanent anchors are not allowed in the State Park. A few old bolts are present over less popular climbs, which the park is particularly displeased about. There is extensive adequate trees and cracks for setting up topropes over all climbs. Top-rope setup skills required.

Comments: HUGE sandbag. The first moves are for sure tricky. And it'll scare the bejeezus out of you, despite being a perfectly safe landing.

Comments: Just to the left of Rock Pigs (with the "elephants foot" at the start-- and which is just to the left of Light My Fire), in a scoop/hueco, that is 3-4ish feet across or so. Hard moves off the ground including a long lock-off/momentum move to a good edge up left. It goes straight up, some hard sh!t in the middle, I couldn't do it

Comments: This problem is an easier right exit of "Spread Eagle," and starts halfway through the problem. It would be probably V1.

Comments: No bolt needs to be added to this route. Respect the first ascentionist and every ascentionist thereafter. If you can climb the crux on this route (and everything up to it), then you can easily clip the last bolt from jugs. There aren't any tenuous moves between the second to last, and last bolts. There's no reason that a person would deck from this route unless they are doing something stupid.
