Brett getting in some pro before pulling the roof (crux) of Soylent Green Jeans. Fun climb!<br /><br />Taken 6/27/07

Brett getting in some pro before pulling the roof ...

If you want a little extra fun after doing Soylent Green Jeans, you can have a beautiful top out by continuing on some easy, fun 4th class, and low fifth class terrain (a few pitches long) You can descend via some really fun down climbing of the gullies, and a couple of short raps from natural pro to get you back to the base of SGG. What a blast!<br /><br />Taken 6/27/07

If you want a little extra fun after doing Soylent...

This is an excellent route! Start at the base of the upper large pine tree and follow the corner past a small pine, over a roof and belay atop the corner under a large ceiling(55m+/-). Walk east about 25' and scramble down to a tree with slings and rings. If you use this rap I suggest you bring a sling to replace the one there.

Okay, I can't hold back anymore.

This route is brought to you by Soylent red and Soylent yellow, high energy vegetable concentrates, and new, delicious, Soylent green. The miracle food of high-energy plankton gathered from the oceans of the world.

Sol: There was a world, once, you punk.
Det. Thorn: Yes, so you keep telling me.
Sol: I was there. I can prove it.
Det. Thorn: I know, I know. When you were young, people were better.
Sol: Aw, nuts. People were always rotten. But the world 'was' beautiful.
