Comments: Is this "Shark Teeth 5.6" from the plaque at the bottom?

Comments: Since the top after the mantle onto the ledge is only 3rd/4th class, I just leaned over and clipped the single anchor at the top of Shark Teeth, though it's a bit harder to clean after yourself.

Comments: May 30, 2009 - it appears as though all but one of the bolts on top of the 5.6s are missing - - (edited 6/9/2009)
they are gone, closer inspection reveals they were pulled out. The one left is spinning, so it needs to be pulled as well. I didn't have tools with me, but next time I go, if it's still there, I'll pull it.
Is there any need to replace these? Does anyone care?

Comments: I was emailed and asked today about the "plastic holds" that used to be under the little roof under the .9/.10 area. They are no longer there this year in case anyone is interested.

Comments: Unless I missed a set, the second set of anchors has a bit of rope drag - the first set (out over Numbers) has a much better line.

Comments: Gave it a one-star because near the top as the crack heads right of the anchors there is a fun spot where you can either balance leaning left in the crack or stick your right toe in a small pocket and reach up for a small crimp and step out on the face to the right - then suddenly you find the hidden jug.
Too short, but beautiful approach and scenery from the top.

Comments: Summited July 4th. 1st ice pitch a walk-up after the first semi-vertical 40', 2nd required one tool but quite a bit of front-pointing. Felt like solid Grade 3. There were loops of webbing left on the penitentes which made good anchors.
Was cool at the end of the day to sit in camp 2 and watch the fireworks all around.

Comments: Took the kids (4 and 6) there in early Nov. and it looked cleaned up (mattress was there still in Oct - thanks whoever cleaned it). Great place for kids, with lots of short scrambly routes on the boulders downhill from the traverse wall (and one cool 4th class chimney perfect for kids). If you drop by on a ski trip, it would be a great way to break up the visit for the kids.

Comments: According to the Forest Service and ReserveAmerica, the Campground Host is there only every three days or so. Last time I was there the pay envelopes were all gone and the pay tube was empty.
The group site is nice.

Comments: Bottom was V-easy (touch bouldery). Last 10' two options - left crack, right face (mild exposure). TR from upper (left) anchors reached by trail, there's an anchor there to protect while setting QD's.
