Comments: Last weekend we were able to drive a Subaru 1.6 miles up the wash. There's a pullout on the right at that point. It didn't seem to bad to me just a couple of tricky spots due to low clearance, of course it wasn't my car either.

Comments: I didn't read the description very well and went right onto Tag Team after the 5th bolt on the 1st pitch so I'll have to go back and do it straight up. The crux at the third bolt can be climbed 10a by staying to the right of the bolt, or if you use the holds on the left of the arete I thought it was 5.9. Of all the pitches I've climbed on Tonnere I felt this route was truest to its original grade.

Comments: Fun outing for a multi pitch sport climb. I'm a tad over 5'6" an felt the reach on pitch two warranted a 9+. I'd rate climb as 5.8 for pitch 1, 9+ pitch 2, 5.9 for pitch 3 ( I thought the right hand crack variation was much better then the left variation) and 5.7 for pitch 4. Easy to run pitch 1 & 2 together.

Comments: Fun route, not over bolted and for the most part bolts are where you want them. Light rack of stoppers and one each of gold Alien to #2 Camolot is all that is needed to lace up.

Comments: Tree sling raps were available when we climbed the route from the top of the 1st and 2nd pitches. Raps for 2nd pitch are in the small bushy trees down and climbers right from base of third pitch. Raps for 1st pitch are in the trees on climbers right above the snow gully above the little rock band.

Comments: I followed this pitch and thought it was really hard for the grade. Lots of laybacking and strenuous right off the deck. Good rest after first crux then what I felt was the layback crux if you have normal size fingers. Great pitch - continuous........ 5.10+ or harder (at least on that day.)

Comments: Be careful of rope drag linking pitches 1 & 2. We did the right hand variation on pitch one which is a little awkward and strenuous for a move or two moving over the block. Pitch three takes a perfect blue Camalot from the start of the crux thru where it kicks back to 5.8. It felt 9+ to me, steep but perfect cupped hands available the whole way.
