...or the Love Route, also on Hallett.

Jason Killgore · · boulder, co · Joined Sep 2008 · Points: 165

Love it is. Nice work.

The rock looks like Hallett's. I'm not sure how I initially convinced myself it wasn't...

Here's some more Alpine climbing. It should be easy.

Well, nobody got that one.
Here is a different one to try... Not all I.C. routes look the same. Can any one name this relatively popular "5.10++"?
(That is what the plaque at the base of the route grades it.)

Hmmm... Bolted crux on below vertical light granite.
Something on the Spearhead, since as I recall it Chiefshead bolts are not so modern.

Jeff G · · Colorado · Joined Feb 2006 · Points: 1,098

Spearhead is correct. What route?

Tony B · · Around Boulder, CO · Joined Jan 2001 · Points: 24,665

Spear Me the Details and All Too Obvious are both protected by bolts at the crux, so it is one of those. In my best estimate, it must be the former. I am just guessing, however, since there isn't enough background in the photo to triangulate and I haven't done that route.

It's the crux pitch of All Two Obvious. One of the best routes on the Planet!! You really need to get up there and do it Tony. Spear Me the Details is also amazing. Go do them both. ;)

OK, here's a shout out to the left coast:

Aerial at Snowshed wall. I cheated and browsed tick list but I finally got one!

Since I know I'm right here's another.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
