Hey all, I've been exploring a lot of the Reno-area/region climbs since COVID. My wife, who is not a climber, has agreed to belay me but I'm only doing top rope with her since she has no experience/training on anything else. I've been trying to hit the bolted top rope spots around the area but there just aren't that many and they aren't that great. I was wondering if anyone has any places where they've set up natural anchors. It would have to be something I could walk/scramble up to and set then come down. I wonder if there are even existing sport or trade routes that have a solid boulder or tree at the top where I could do that. Any suggestions on locations would be great. Even drop a pin on a Google Map and put the link in and I can hike in, etc.
88 is where it’s at. A lot of the climbing out there is undocumented and really good. Woodfords the closest with plenty of trees to sling and even quite a few bolts. Or put on your adventure hat and head west.
Get some time in at 90 foot wall before it gets too hot. It's south facing. Excellent climbing with a ten minute approach. Very easy to walk around to the top. Opportunities for tree anchors and solid gear anchors and IIRC there are a few bolted anchors up there too (too lazy to look it up in my book).
