I hope this one is hard enough that it doesn’t get guessed by the first person like my last few…


Not Frustration Syndrome, although it is in the trapps.

this is a tough crowd (not including myself) to stump, Ezra!

It looks like Frustration Syndrome, though it has been a long time since I have been on it.

Gorilla My Dreams! Third pitch

That's it. I would argue that it's the best 5.5 roof in the gunks, and for some reason no one does it. The linkup of ribless into the last pitch of gorilla my dreams would probably be the best 5.5 in the gunks.

And the app gives it 1 star for some reason… the last pitch is incredible for 5.5 in the gunks.

This should be nearly impossible to identify…

So obscure it’s on a guidebook cover!

The next one is not in Colo…

… because it’s in California.

Man, looks a lot like Woodson granite but a little tall for the area. Very curious about that one.

The Crucible?

I'm curious about this one. JTree? Buttermilks? Pine Creek?

Sierra Eastside?

George Bracksieck · · Unknown Hometown · Joined Oct 2008 · Points: 3,920

Not the Crucible. Not at Woodson.

Not Jtree, Pine Creek, Buttermilks. 

George Bracksieck · · Unknown Hometown · Joined Oct 2008 · Points: 3,920

Not on the East Side.
Not in the VOM.
Yes, the Fang, Easter Island, Deerhorn Valley, south San Diego County.

Something at Valley of the Moon?

Lets see AJ... another Deerhorn jammer or something equally obscure and potentially not even land with public access?

I kid - I'm just being salty because I miss the SoCal winter hangs
