[Hide Comment] Did a 5.10ish sport pitch to start this one, (looked new)then did the next two pitches. Very good and fun climbing on all 3 pitches.
However, if the crux pitch of War Hippies is 5.11c, then the crux of Submission is .12a. War Hippies is way easier than Submission.
Again just my opinion. Nov 2, 2007

[Hide Comment] Warhippies has a trad first pitch, next to the bolted line, easy wide crack to the ledge then up the finger crack behind the oak tree (5.9+).

The sport start,Slate's Day Off, 5.10a, climbs the bolted arete/slab to the rebolted face above (moved one bolt, added a 5th) that Jimbo climbed. Apr 11, 2008

[Hide Comment] It is possible to rap these climbs (Gone Grey, War Hippies, Peacenik) with a 60 m rope. 60 m reaches the main ledge from anchors on top of first pitch of War Hippies and Peacenik. It also reaches the start of Peacenik from the top of the second pitch, after which it's a moderate downclimb to the main ledge, or a second rap. This second pitch anchor is what you need to stop at when rapping from the top. May 8, 2011

[Hide Comment] Ok, so it's the third pitch of this that is great to connect with the first two of Peacenik. A natural link up. It's a sweet 10+ juggy roof pulling pitch that is absolutely exquisite. Oct 21, 2020
