Comments: Pretty fun actually. Deserves more traffic. A poor man's water saps with an engaging landing zone. Felt kinda hard for the grade.

Location: UT : Maple Canyon : Left Fork : The Pipeline : Golden Boy (5.12c)
By: Tim Steele When: Aug 4, 2010 | view comment >> |
Comments: The crux of this route is at the top and involves a long lock off to a sloper at the lip. I broke a major right hand sidepull down low (2nd clip) on 8/1/10, but the grade is still the same. Fun route!

Location: TX : Hueco Tanks : East Mountain : Dragon's Den : Hobbit in a Blender (V5)

Comments: It's pretty obvious to me that the starting holds are chipped, having done the problem before and after the chipping. The chalk does little to hide the obvious chip marks. The original crimps were not that great, now they are finger buckets...

Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Owens River Gorge : Central Gorge : ... : Aurora (5.13a)
By: Tim Steele When: Mar 7, 2010 | view comment >> |
Comments: Honestly, this route is an overhyped pile. People like it because it's juggy, steep, and really ego-boosting for .13a in the gorge. It's probably .12c. Aurora is chossy and unpleasant at the bottom and is a drilled and gluey pile at the top. There are many better .13s in the gorge not to mention better easier routes. I guess the headwall to the right would be "classic" too if it was chiseled or had modular holds bolted on.

Comments: Heel hook your left heel and it becomes about V6.
Not the problem it once was since both starting holds down left broke of the scoop broke off.
FA was Dustin Sabo and Vic Copeland
