| Does anyone know if this is the 5.10X trad route in Toula's old guide called Sporte? |

| The first bolt of this climb might need to be replaced soon. Not only is the hanger spinning, but the bolt itself is loose in its hole. The crux of this climb could seem hard if you're trying to pull through on brute strength, but with careful footwork its not too bad. |

| New anchors should be finished by this afternoon, with good chains. Thanks to Stan Mish for the use of his hand drill ( he also offered up some ole "no gud" hangers but I didn't want to scare the kiddos!) and to Chris T. for saving the day with a power drill. Who knew hand drilling in limestone could be such a pain in the ass. Enjoy |

| Dean, chains are great and thank you for your community service. If you prefer I'll donate a set of MussyHooks™ for the top.

| Nice work by Dean and Chris Tatum to get new anchors put up on this route. Now it has two bolts with chains on the top out ledge. |

| Just a "heads up" literally, about halfway up this route is a block around the size of the old block on Mordor with significant fracture lines almost all the way around it. I know, I know True Value has looked like that for year, but might be good to try and avoid this. |

| Good mid-10 climbing until one move near the last or second to last bolt (it's been a couple of weeks since climbing it) unless you are tall. Seemed a tad easier than Mordor to the left. |

| Chalk goes to the right near the end. the easy on route finish is a side pull to the left left of the bolt. |
