Featured Route For Sunshine Wall
near the anchor

George and Martha 5.10a  WA : Vantage (Frenchman Coulee) : ... : King Pins
This route is in the central/left part of the Stems and Seeds area. It is the 2nd crack to the right of the fairly obvious Seven Virgins and a Mule (5.7) chimney. An excellent handcrack with some faceholds that provide very nice stances for placing pro. It gets a little wide at the very top. This is the route to climb if you want to toprope Red M&Ms....[more]   Browse More Classics in WA

That approach gully is a 5.7 down climb with scree on every foothold. I wouldn't even try to bring kids or dogs this way and go around to the left the long way. I'm thinking about putting steel rungs in the descent gully for an easier approach.
