Rising Moons
Sep 20, 2022 · Lead / Onsight. Walk in takes longer than you think,especially when it is 100°f ! I ended up dropping into the creek and up and down boulders to gain the red scree on the left side. On the way down we followed a vague trail on the right (left looking down) which avoided any scrambling at all. First pitch looks like it might be a pain but is easy and good fun, I kept going past the bushes till I was right at the base of the second pitch. 2nd is easy to start and then gets a bit run out, don't go too far right as the anchor is on the left. Top pitch looks like an awful off width but actually has plenty of small face holds, I took a #5 and didn't use it, it would only fit near the top anyway, take slings to hitch the chicken heads. The first rappel station is back and down to the left, you can't see the bolts till you are there as it faces away from the line. Next one is a sling round a tree. You could probably do another short one until you reach easy scrambling ground back to the base.

Regular Route ("East Rib")
Sep 15, 2022 · Lead. First move is the hardest, rest of it is pretty slabby, plenty of bolts and belays. Excellent rappel anchor and a bolt or two to protect the scramble down into the notch if you need them, it's a long rappel but certainly not 60m

Wilson Arch Regular Route
Sep 15, 2022 · Lead / Flash. First move is hardest, can protect belayer with a cam, rest of it is pretty mellow. I rapped with 60's but saw the half way marker on the ground so a single 60 should do it.

West Crack
Sep 3, 2022 · Lead / Flash. Super route, never too hard, plenty of gear to make it safe enough.

West Chimney
Sep 3, 2022 · Lead / Onsight. Did initial bulge then brought my mate up to reduce rope drag(one #.5 BD as anchor). Slightly awkward offwidth to get going but we'll protected. Green Metolius nut in chimney and a #.75 under the chockstone before a squirm upwards. Could maybe get a #3 or #4 on horizontal break near the top. Rap anchor is still one bolt and some Webbing round a block, why do people steal rap anchors??

Regular Route ("East Rib")
Sep 2, 2022 · Lead / Onsight. Super fun, no snakes, easiest approach is around front of arch, not round the back.
