First climbing trip in the new car. Reasonably succesful once we stopped trying to climb specific climbs, and just climbed what we found instead. We were over on the west side, which in my opinion was far far superior to the east side, though no where near as sporty and convenient. Wayy more lines that said, "DO ME" though. Unlike the east side, which had very few.

pinnacles-08.JPG "Lava Falls" (5.9) Looks amazing, we waited a bit to see if these guys were going up or down, but they took to long and we ran out of day. |
pinnacles-09.JPG Flumes North wall. Much nicer, we did a few climbs here, then found out they were all new since the guidebook. Some very nice stuff here. Kibbles & Bits, and Rebecca's Sailing (both 5.9) were both enjoyable. |
