Name That Route, Volume VII
|
|
Crescent Crack? AZ somewhere |
|
|
Crescent crack on table mountain is right. You're up Rob. |
|
|
Ah crap. All I ever take pictures of is obscure choss:
*Not Tooth Rock. |
|
|
More Sand Than Stone on Tooth Rock? |
|
|
Obv folks, unsurprisingly, need a hint. Contrary to the assessment of the (recently departed) second ascentionist, this has not become the route of choice on the formation. |
|
|
Did Ed Webster do the second ascent of the West Face of Castleton? I have vague recollection of one of the early ascent parties expressing the route was quite good.. |
|
|
I dunno, but that’s not germane to this pic. I just listened to Jimmie Dunn on some podcast and you should hear the NH accent on that guy, still! |
|
|
Well, Jimmie did grow up in NH and then later guided there for a number of years, so the accent isn’t a surprise. |
|
|
dunn route? |
|
|
How about the Dunn route on Moses. |

Rob Dillonwrote:. I've never heard that one. Just looked through the entire listing and can't see it there either. Could it have been a different podcast, or perhaps the one that Kalous had before the Enormocast? Thanks. |

Rob Dillon wrote: Hi Rob. No problem, and sorry if I put you on the spot. Climbing history is a major interest of mine, and Dunn is certainly a huge figure in US climbing history - albeit somewhat under the radar nowadays; if he's been a guest on a climbing podcast I'm very keen to listen to it. I'll do a search - and would obviously appreciate any relevant input from the MP 'massive'! |

Ok, so this is going nowhere. That one is the Hydrophobic Coyote, a 3rd-rate adventure on Bridger Jack Butte. I'm glad no one recognized it. Bit more of a softball, but you'll need to look closely: *Not the Cruise. |
|
|
Looks like the Black but I’m not super familiar with the routes there so I’ll have to throw out a most basic guess with The Cruise. |
|
|
Journey home? |
|
|
Checkerboard? Kinda hard to tell from that angle.. |
|
|
Maiden Voyage? |
|
|
or maybe Black Shadow Arete? |
|
|
Opening pitches of Atlantis / No Country for Old Men? |
