Comments: I did a route that looked to be relatively well traveled but that I haven't seen listed in any guides or on here- it is on the left side of the boulder- sit start underneath on a rail then a hard pull to gain a crimp then over the lip and up on easy holds. It felt about v3+ to me but I can never tell...I would love to hear from anyone else who has done this.
Thanks!

Comments: This is a fun route but I would say for the new leader, the crux move is a bit committing since blowing this move could cause you to ledge out with one or both feet. My wife had an easier time though and she is short...I am 6'3 and it was a real stumper for me.

Comments: I dont see the point in having a bolt at eye-level (when standing on the ground) and then a 18 foot run-out to the next bolt. Its illogical as well as unsafe.

Comments: Hi folks, I am going to be heading out to Spearfish in a few weeks and I was just wondering what the camping situation is like- especially dispersed camping/free camping. Any info/help is greatly appreciated. That said, I am totally psyched to come out- it seems like a wonderful area with a great community.

Comments: That sounds awesome. I am coming out in a few weeks to learn the ways of the offwidth (and history, if someone is giving dissertations on how what now is once was).

Comments: Question, since I see mention of the simul rap here... I am not adverse to simul rapping, however my belayer is about 90 pounds lighter than me...we will be visiting this summer by the way... and I have done a couple simul raps with larger partners who wont be on this road trip...that said, is it possible to simul rap with that weight disparity?
