Location: CO : Gunnison : Taylor Canyon : Second Buttress : Chucky Cheese (5.8+) By: Scott Krankkala When: 16 hours ago | view comment >> |
Comments: I think some rap anchors up there would be a great idea. Although the walk off is pretty easy, it seems to make sense as there are anchors on the second pitch. I looked at a place on the face right above where the boulder with the rope is that could work as a rap/belay for both the left and right variations. Let me know if you want to throw some anchors in up there and I'll go with you.

Comments: As it turns out, you can scope this climb from the North Rim of the canyon. After Pioneer Point, there is a large switchback that passes by Curecanti Ranch.

Location: UT : Moab Area : Castle Valley : The Rectory By: Scott Krankkala When: Apr 7, 2010 | view comment >> |
Comments: Does anybody know why there is lumber on top of the rectory. While on top we found a 4ft 4x4 and some other smaller pieces. I know that the lumber on top of Castleton was the result of a car commercial does anybody know why there is similar stuff on top of the Rectory?
