The first and third bolt on Suzies have been damaged to the point of being unusable. The inconsiderate person who did this left the flattend bolts in the rock. It is to bad some A-whole finds the need to damage a great route and leave the rock with unsitely damaged bolts. Becareful there are other routes at Mission Gorge where there has been bolt damage.

Shame about this as it's a fun route, but perhaps this is retribution for Art's actions at El Cajon Mt. ?

As of 2/24/07 the bolts on Suzie's Wild Ride are new and usable. Thanks to whoever got out and replaced the hangers.

Sweet climb! Love the balance, the thin edges and that traverse!

Pretty good deck potential from a couple spots and requires trust in your hands and feet especially in the traverse section. Not a great route for someone not comfortable on lead.
