Found a beautiful dome in the gates pass area. I have not found any info or records of previous ascents. Looking for someone to check it out with and maybe try and put up some routes. Available M/W/F all day. I have 2/3 of a rack (Hexs, 2xNuts, half set of cams) and a bunch of pins but someone with a drill kit would be nice but not needed. PM me or TEXT me at 52Zero.24One. Four3Two0. I am hopeing to do this ASAP.

Not sure where you are looking to go exactly, but the faces I've been up close to in that area are very chossy. Be safe

Checked it out. Rock was solid. Bigger walls 15 min farther uphill once this rock is devoloped. Available MWF.

The rock/dome is aproximately 50' and climbable with a little but not very much loose rock and what was loose was easy to see/remove. I put in one pair of top rope anchors yesterday and am looking for someone to go with me TODAY (or WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY) to put in a few more anchors and grab 1-3 more FA's. Climbing ranges from 5.6/7ish to probably 5.11/12ish. If this someone is you call me at 520.2four1.432zero.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
