Comments: This is a really great climb. The runout's more scary than the flake - don't let either deter you.

Location: CO : Boulder : Upper Dream Canyon : Lost Angel : Technical Remote Viewing (5.11a)

Comments: I was climbing with some friends this weekend, and I got lost trying to find the gully for the Lost Angle (something I do every other time I visit Dream Canyon). And saw this route while hiking back up the gully. So, we went ahead and got on this one. It's a fun little route, well-protected at the crux, and is really worth doing!
My only criticism would be the first bolt seems a little close to the ground.
Seems like this could be a good warm up for the routes further down the rock.

Comments: Knock test all the flakes under the roof before you place pro under the roof. There's a flake that takes a #1 BD nicely, and seems solid; there's also a yellow alien placement a little farther towards the lip of the roof that I have taken several falls on. Have fun climbing through the roof and up the face; we sure did! ;)

Comments: I seconded this... This route, like a lot of slab routes in LCC has bolts above good stances and pretty good run outs (PG-PG13). I think this would be a heck of an exciting lead! And I don't want to try it any time soon.

Comments: The last 2 pitches are amazing! My partner called these "slabby and insecure". Damn right, a serious lead for sure.

Comments: Umm... I climbed the first three pitches of Stiffler's today. And I noticed that most of the bolts on the first two pitches are removed... Just FYI for anybody headed up there.

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Little Cottonwood Canyon : Perla's Ridge and environs : Perla's Ridge (Satyr Ridge) (5.8 R)

Comments: Wow! Bobby nice topo. I'd like to add on the last pitch, the handcrack to gain those traversing ledges is probably somewhere between 5.8+ to 5.9+. It felt harder than any of the moves on Satan's Corner (and very exposed). Will try to get pictures up next Tues, Weds...

Comments: If the arete is off, this climb doesn't seem like it would be as much fun. But definately harder - as I couldn't figure out the lower face moves; and used the arete ala "Fat Albert". Fun climb
