This pitch follows a series of discontinuous cracks, which are difficult to see from the belay, and takes much more gear than you would expect. Apr 6, 2012

It was quite a busy day on birdland yet still enjoyable. There were 6 people total hanging from the two bolts atop pitch 4 just prior to taking this photo......

Birdland, pitch 1 variations. The first pitch as listed in the Brock guidebook follows the leftmost crack system (yellow dots). An alternate start follows a wider crack to the right (red dots). Both variations are about the same difficulty.

Birdland is also covered by String Cheese Incident on their "Carnival 99" album.

The joy ....

Birdland awash in climbers on March 23rd. Fun route, but very crowded -- even on a weekday!

Selfies are a good way to avoid butt shots, right?

Slabish final moves
