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.

Location: CO : Gunnison : Black Canyon : North Chasm View Wall : Movable Stoned Voyage (5.10) By: Kipp Schorr When: Apr 25, 2005 | view comment >> |
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!!
