Early morning send session, September 3rd, 2017.

Climbing on the Mainline, which goes up about 1,000' of cracks on the huge face south of Scheelite Canyon. This thing was a lot of fun. A few locals called it 10c - I'd say definitely 5.10 and harder depending upon which route you take up it.

A big haul this time.

the bear grabbed some food, and ran away across the river.

We camped at the pullout near the creek across from the Pratt's Crack area. three "Hillbilly" type men left all of their food stacked in crates. I woke up when the bear knocked over a crate.

After eating the first crate of food, he came back for the next one.

Now he's after the drinks.
