Comments: Word, Willa. So glad to see there is some new development happening in the valley in terms of bouldering. I knew some awesome stuff would go down in Lost Canyon as well, never made it out there enough (too much trad climbing while I lived in Gunny). Also, good luck on that sport route, thing looks rowdy. Have to check it out when I'm back through that way.
One other question, did someone ever climb that super pretty red face over by that HOFNAR problem? I tried it a little bit and got super ... more >>

Comments: Are you sure this is in Taylor?! Ha, looks way better than anything I saw there. Would be psyched to check this out if I'm back in the area. Good effort, looks amazing.

Comments: What's up, dudes? I was randomly looking through the ol' Hartman's area stuff and saw this line. I climbed this thing from the low back in '05 or '06. I probably didn't do it first, as a lot of hardmen were around lonnng before I was there, but we jokingly named it 'Rimjob' and thought it was around V7/8ish. Just a little heads up on this great problem, not many good slopey problems at Hartmans, and this was imo one of the best! Seems like you guys are putting up a lot of quality stuff in the ar... more >>

Comments: Rad route.......crux pitch was hard! Get your stem on........definately have some blue and green aliens ready. Might want to have some fist size gear if you want to protect the splitter 4th pitch. Cheers. Rap the face rappel route or be prepared for heinous bushwack-rapping and rope eating cracks.

Comments: Definitely a classic, with some peggy climbing in the middle. It takes a pitch to get the the "start" of the route described in the guidebook. Aim for the splitter right facing dihedral. On that dihedral pitch, don't climb to the top of the pillar, rather belay just past the horn halfway up, and you'll see the traverse pitch out right. Enjoy.

Comments: Great route. Definitely bring a few extra finger sized pieces for the 3rd (two roofs pitch). Other than that standard Black rack. The climbing is rather moderate despite the rating, short crux. Enjoy.

Comments: Anonymous Coward, Try a kneebar with the right leg in the big hole and left hand to a little crimp thing, then up into the crappy holds of the route. Seen it work wonders for tall people. Cheers.

Comments: This thing is sick ! Fav route at Rifle so far. Solid 13a as well. Get on it. Quick link at the second crux (5th bolt) should be replaced soon! I'll get in on the next trip back if not done yet. Cheers.

Comments: Also, on the first pitch, don't tug on one of the left hand flakes too hard, looks good, but it may turn things into a slaughterhouse! Cheers.

Comments: Great Route!! Had an incredible time on it, although felt that when compared to Comic Relief, the pitches of 10 quite a bit harder, but overall pretty nice!!
