[Hide Comment] This part of the Frenchman Coulee has a long climbing history! However all routes / problems were abandoned because of several issues and bolt chopping. This is private land (check Gaia / county GIS) and really should not be climbed to maintain good relationships / access to surrounding areas. Thanks! Jun 4, 2021
