Description Suggest change

The only reason I put this piece of crap route on here is because it was my first ever trad FA.  I had just bought $1000 worth of gear and hauled it out to the Gulch and of that thousand dollars of fancy shiny shit, I only used one tiny brass wire, behind a chossy flake, that probably wouldn't have held body weight.  I would put an X rating on it but I don't think you could fall off of this route even if you tried because the offwidth crack sucks you in, rather than spits you out. In all that gear I had no big cams, I would guess that you could get a #4 or 5 to stick and render the X rating mute. The route is named after the dead cow bones that were back behind the buttress.

Location Suggest change

Obvious hideous looking off width in the corner of the very obvious dihedral at the end of the swoop wall. 

Protection Suggest change

One small brassie wire.  Chains and Lowering Carabiners
