| Does anyone know:
- What the bolted route is on the right side of Little Crag?
- Where to get more info on the routes on the South Side of the Fourth Elephant Buttress (Candelaria's Crack to Cloddy Corner). I can't match up the descriptions in Rossiter's book. Does anyone have an older guide that has a topo or different descriptions?
- What is the bolted route to the left of Huston Crack on the lower left side of Cob Rock?
- Any info on stuff on the south side of Boulder Canyon across from the Dome and Elephant Buttresses?
- Is Red Lyin' the first slab on the right after Red Lion Inn with all of the green and red stained rock and lots of dirt to either side, or is it the second slab, which is cleaner but less steep and has a big quartz dike cutting through it?
- Pat Ament's email address?

| More Boulder Canyon obscurities:
Name the rock formations depicted in these photos. Hint, the first one is a tasty candy.
This one has a name and has been climbed. It's called the Finne of _____. Hint: rhymes with "clap."

| The bolted route to the right of Huston Crack on the lower left side of Cob Rock is the 1st pitch of Night Vision I think. Sorry, can't help you on the other ones. | |

| Speaking of Scorcher at Canyon Block, anyone else see the cave with a discarded butter knife, a VHS tape, and other items? How about the cut fixed rope on top of the boulder to the South of the Block?
I also found a fixed rope around the main tree on top of the Block. Could these be owned by the same person that left his old backpack and 30-rack of keystone at the bottom of the gully?
FWIW, I looked at the green/red stained rock next to Red Lion and if that's the route then it is a choss-pile. | |

| Yeah, it is... can't really imagine climbing it. I climbed the second slab and it was ok. | |

| I got your PMs, emailed you back, maybe your SPAM bot ate them.
Crankenstein is right, it is the first part of Night Vision | |
