[Hide Comment] Are Little Guy and Big Guy the same route with Big Guy just avoiding the right crack in the upper section? Although frequently debated, it is common practice to just include variations in the description/comment section of the obvious route. Being an eliminate, I would move Big Guy to Little Guy’s page.

It also seems like poor form to be leaving tat/carabiners when there are numerous bolted anchors to rap from or an easy downclimb on the north side. Jun 27, 2022
