All you Rob!

Part of a scattering of crags in the area, this popular route earns it's name in my experience, having come down with bloody hands and fingers. 

Mush maker?

Bloody fingers?

First Blood?

I guess you’re up BrianO, looks like Portland rob has gone weird on us

Yeah, not sure what's going on. But let's keep this going.

Next clue: If you don't let your nerves get the better of you on this runout slab, you'll be greeted with a big hug on the next pitch.

Ahh! Sorry!! Totally forgot I posted a clue and stopped checking in for a few days. The route was Meat Grinder.

BrianO - I think you're talking about SW Rib of SEWS and the Bear Hug pitch. If I'm right, I'll cede my turn to whoever wants to post up next as penance.

Yeah, that the one, Rob! You can go again, I forgive you.

Alright, I've set up reminders to check MP so I don't ghost y'all again!

Clue: FA'd by the PNW hero himself, this mammalian pitch is visually striking but rarely done, and never on the news. A rack of gold Big Bros and #21 C4s sews this one up nicely. 

Sounds like the Dolphin Chimney, on the SEWS not the NEWS

That's it! Nice Zachary. Take it away.

By 2012, it was discovered that there was only one person left in British Columbia who had learned Chinook Jargon from Elders. That person was Jay Powell, a University of British Columbia anthropological linguist who had dedicated himself to the revitalization of Indigenous languages. I don't think Jay is a climber, but if he was, he might say that this route is the breast Index has to offer.

What is... Tatoosh?

Faster than I expected. Send it George.

Zachary, I thought "breast" was a typo until I realized it wasn't :)

This I-90 route is often wet and muddy at the base so you wouldn't be too surprised if its name was referring to the band who's 2nd most popular song could've been an alternative name. 

Maybe that was too weird and a hint is in order.

Warm up by pulling your lizard on the right, and drinking your orange juice on the left. Pull the roof and head up a crimp ladder to an often-wet jug. 

Hurricane?

Not Hurricane, another hint:

This climb was FA’d the same year that a world famous Bellevue bookstore might’ve been named after the crag that it’s at.
