Saw this beautiful creature while exploring new routes at Derrydale Cliff with Romain, in October.
Matthew Fienup climbing at Derrydale Cliff, October 17, 2008.
My wife nearly put her hand down on this little creature as we were scrambling up the hill to the base of Exilis Dihedral. At just 5-inches long and thinner than a pencil, this must be a very new arrival to the area.
Derrydale Cliff:<br> Red - Exilis Dihedral (5.9)<br> Orange - Mammoth Poaching (5.10c)<br> Yellow - Grand Old Pachyderm (5.9)
Looking up at "Mammoth Poaching" today. <br> Did anyone bring ice axes?

Belaying from a narrow ledge, the "Elephant Walk", that runs atop all existing routes at Derrydale Cliff. This grassy ledge is a comfortable place from which the leader can belay the second, and it has an outstanding view of Sespe Creek. <br> Photo by Matthew Fienup, February 2009.
Area "B"<br> This part of the cliff is home to a line that is approximately 100 feet tall. The line climbs a steep face past one 80s-era bolt and a series of pockets to a horizontal break. From the break, there is a heavily-featured face that climbs up and eventually left below a small arch.
Area "A"<br> This part of the cliff is approximately 50 feet tall and contains very hard sandstone within an obvious black streak. The top of the cliff is equipped with what appear to be shiny, new Fixe Supershuts.
