yeah, it is amazing. i have been working in the area for about 2.5 months and keep finding new treasures everywhere. the routes are a few short cracks that look pretty nice and are anchored. they are one the left hand side as you head up Ferron Canyon ~ 1-1.5 miles past the mill site reservoir. i have not had time to check them out yet. i saw them on the way into the field area from the road so no idea difficulty or anything. will try to check them out in person soon and will post.

Dave, I'll let you know when I'm going to be there. I'm actually going to price to visit family. I should be able to stay a few extra days to climb. What's your August schedule look like?

If you drive to the top of the canyon to Skyline Drive, there is a limestone cliff composed of rock similar to that of the Hellgate in LCC. Probably just as chossy too. At least the view is nice and the air is cool.
