Location: CO : Boulder : Boulder Canyon : The Boulderado : Jam It (Variation) (5.5) By: Justin Brunson When: May 11, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: This is the most convenient way to the Ho Hum anchors if you're stting up a TR for beginners. It's not that fun, but there's no rope drag.

Comments: I agree with John, something is amiss on the upper section of this route. Also-- why was the anchor chopped? Seems very strange to me, but I don't know any SSV history.

Comments: Because it's not in Boulder, and you should be damn thankful for that... haha I'm getting so sick of R rated trad.

Comments: The crux mantle is quite puzzling till you do it, and then it's super fun. Great route. Good for strong beginners to learn some new techniques.

Comments: Super fun. I almost sent, but I tipped over near the top and had to catch myself. Also a great route for first timers--set your TR with large stoppers in between the two sets of chains.

Comments: This route reminded me why toproping can be SO MUCH FUN. Do two or three laps, trying all the variations!

Location: CO : Boulder : Boulder Canyon : The Dome : Cozyhang (5.7) By: Justin Brunson When: Apr 22, 2012 | view comment >> |
Comments: I linked P1 and P2, rope drag was minimal. I found it hard to protect the traverse, which really caused my second some stress. Something to think about if you bring a friend who's uncomfortable smearing.

Location: CO : Boulder : Boulder Canyon : Happy Hour Crag : I, Robot (5.7) By: Justin Brunson When: Mar 7, 2012 | view comment >> |
Comments: I loved this little route, reminded me of the City of Rocks. Anyone know where I can find a similar but longer version around here?

Comments: Spend some more time getting used to the area. Locally, try southpark, the playground, or midget widget. Maybe take a trip out to box canyon, palisades creek, or teton canyon. You'll forget all about that rotten cliff band. Unfortunately there's not a ton of traditional climbing out here, but you can find good lines in and around the sport routes.

Location: ID : Heise Rock : Northeast Wall : Trad (5.12b/c) By: Justin Brunson When: Sep 24, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: i quite enjoyed figuring this route out, too bad it's so darn short. As a boulder problem I would probably give it V5-6, and jump off at the first big pocket; at that point the route is over.

Comments: Working on some similar slabby boulders in colorado makes me wonder if this is more of a stout V2. Either way, it's a fantastic route-- one of my favorites.

Location: ID : Crank Cave : Powder Finger (5.9) By: Justin Brunson When: Mar 10, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: This route goes pretty well on gear.. We used a loweball and a #8 stopper for the bottom section and green and red C4s for the hand crack.

Comments: I checked out the route mentioned in my previous comment today. It's scary. very dirty and chossy at the top. good gear to about half height and then nothing. i ended up bailing onto the bolt line because it just wasn't worth it.

Comments: As of 2010, climbers are required to check in at the pizza parlor before climbing. They have also specifically said no climbing after dark. As always, pack your trash out and don't be obnoxious when campers are there.
