Comments: True, the chipped/beat-out pinscar pockets are a shame. the route would be quite a bit harder without them.

Comments: I've seen this called "fairy tales," and that the FA MAY have been done by Peewee, from Quebec.

Comments: This is a good alternative start for the three finger pocket problem. Makes it alittle bit harder. Sit start on the obvious holds to the right, and traverse into the three finger pocket finish.

Comments: Some further location beta, as it isn't super obvious:
From Middle Crack, continue right along the cliff for about 5 minutes- if you get to warmup hand crack, you've gone too far. Look for a thin, right arching, narrowing splitter on a short, steep, and streaked wall... above 50 feet of rotten choss. Despite this first pitch, its a super worthy line.

Comments: Larry, the perpetrator to said inscribing is a well known desert hermit (whose name rhymes with ralph). I doubt he spends much time on MP, so you might have to track him down in the field. While his practice of "inscribing" route names might not be the best idea, keep in mind that he has done a lot of work for Technicolor Wall, including building a trail.

Comments: Drive into canyonlands, via the 211/Indian creek entrance. Once in the park, drive until the pullout for the potholes trail. From the road you can see some obvious wide cracks on the big mushroom formation.
Has the first roof to the left of NWO been climbed?
Heres a video

Comments: A third pitch could probably be pushed, but the crack looks like it seams-out. Might want to warn people if you're getting on this route, we cleaned it up pretty good, but there is still stuff that could go...
