Christa checking out and approaching the chockstone on pitch 5.

Easter 2013- Frogs low, bunnies high. Serious fun.

Chunneling

I got to lead the fun, squeezy pitch. Thank you awesome party ahead for snapping some photos!

Such a cool tunnel through!!!

the 5.4R pitch per Supertopo (doubtful on both the 5.4 and the R)

Obi follows up what we made the first pitch. The recommended pitch is to use the trees to the right of him, however starting from the white column with a 60m rope you can make it to another nice belay ledge higher up that takes nice 2 and 0.75 cams.

Looking down through the chockstone on Frogland, this pitch is a lot of fun, and you once past it, you can use the chockstone as natural pro!

Starting up Pitch 4.

Jascha on P2

The parking area from the top of frogland.

Descent gully. Follow the cairnes to the left of the gully to avoid large patches of brush. Fairly straightforward

Watch out for a couple of loose holds near the top of Frogland Pitch 4.

John on the traverse pitch. 'X' marks the bolt before moving to the traverse (feet low, hands across the dotted line). Small pro to be found in the vertical crack to the left of the traverse.

The belay shown lines up with the 5.7 variation to P3, the classic line is the corner to the left of the shown belay.

Ready to chunnel

Taking a look before heading up the arete. This pitch and the one following (chokstone pitch) were my two favorite pitches of the climb!

Brett comes up Frogland. May, 2015.

nice exposure near the top of third pitch

Location of the start of Frogland on Whiskey Peak.

At the start of Pitch 5, pretty damn thin and tricky to get to that first bolt!

Pitch one of Frogland starts on the white flake and continues up the corner to the trees.
