Not to be missed! 10 Ft. right of Dead Tree Route. Crux is the first 15 feet- a thin tips crack with tricky smears for the feet on left and toe in crack scum on the right. Stab for jug above. Excellent pro abounds. Then follow very interesting crack and edges line to top. There is a second and mid way crux when making move from large flake on left up to cool mantle ledge. Upper moves are stellar as well and the whole thing is OK protected... there are a few spots one has to go a body length without protection.
Location
Right side of Dead Tree Wall.
Protection
One fixed pin towards top of the route. Small to medium wires, small three cams, Ball nuts.
A British phone booth capable of going backward or forward in time? And from what I have seen capable of geting the user in all sorts of trouble. With Daleks? Exterminate!
I have climbed at the lake a lot and thought I ticked all the 5.10 leadable routes, What and where is dead tree crack and where is tardis? Are these the correct names? Help me James or Jay did I ever climb this route.

Mattso, (or should I call you Marmatt?), I don't think you ever did this route. By all accounts, Dead Tree Wall is way, way off the beaten path. I've never done it, though I think I should have.
Jay, Dead Tree Wall is right off the West Bluff Trail just north of Lost Face. Next time you come out to WI, we will have to get you on this climb. It was really good climbing.

Good variation to Tardis starts about 8 feet right of the finger crack and bypasses the crux at about 5.9
