Description Suggest change

Istanbul has been cleaned up and the extension awaits your passage.  Climb between Istanbul and Wild Turkey and avoid the left crack until past the "X" marked block.  Then enjoy the wide cracks and hand stacks while thinking poorly of your partners who will get to simply Lie-Back the moves.  When you arrive at the Istanbul anchor, leave your trad gear behind and enjoy the lightness of being that is Sport Climbing.  Pull around the roof and move like a gecko up the arete and slab.  Baseball sized knobs await near the top.

Location Suggest change

Private Idaho, Far Right side.  Look for the line-ups on Senior Citizens in Space and Battered Sandwich, stop just before them, skip the queue and start up Istanbul.  Conversely, one could got to the Bosporus Straits and go back in time to pre-1930.

Protection Suggest change

Cams up to #5 through Istanbul, QD's through Constantinople
