Late start is more likely, but how would that matter to you if you are swinging between 108 and Castle?

it would matter in terms of my decision making to resolve "probably" into an action plan...

Later start rules out Pinnacles.

Work will dictate ruling out 108.

Castle as the fall back to either option.

We signed up for trail work on Sunday.

It's after 9 and we are  still sitting in a resturant in downtown San Jose waiting to be served. A late start tomorrow is definite if we get out at all.

Perfect temp at the Pinns. Late start, 8 routes. Mr Mud did well, no hang on Feed the Beast.

In transit to Coe. CruxLuv, Coe is like the Pinns. People either love it or hate it. We happen to love it.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

We hit the West Side up into the High peaks and did the Cone, Photographer's Delight and Monument - all super fun and a fab day.

Not sure how well I did not Feed The Beast.  Got this clean on TR just barely.  Kept thinking, just keep moving.  Fell on Rocket.  Felt real good on Broken Arrow so I know my foot work is coming around and I have a bit of crimp strength.  Temps were really good on Saturday.

Coe was hot on Sunday.

At sometime we should get a few folks together to ride there.  Mudworm knows the place very well.  I can get around ok.  The new Jim Donelly Trail out of Hunting Hollow is a good way to get into the park.

Only ridden there once.  Gotta fix that.

Hunting hollow is fun. Best to ride on a full moon..if they still allow it.

great pics - nice angle on the Regular Route - that one was an especially satisfying lead for me. haven't tried the others yet - i'm working my way back up through the grades for now collecting stars...

I was looking at/referring to the second pic with the big eye bolts.

I'm assuming Cantaloupe Death is the overhanging beast in the third pic.

Wrong! Please try again...  ;D
Title: Re: Pinnacles East Side tomorrow April 28
Post by: JC w KC redux on May 01, 2012, 02:43:09 PM
so the Regular Route isn't the only one with those big eye bolts?
Title: Re: Pinnacles East Side tomorrow April 28
Post by: JC w KC redux on May 01, 2012, 02:44:42 PM
the overhanging one is Feed the Beast?
you can tell i don't spend much time on the East Side...

Maybe others want to give it a try before the answer is revealed?  ;)

The second picture with the eye bolts is Cantalope Death.  The third pic is Rocket in my Pocket.  Rocket is a bit over hanging and is a bit of a beast, the pic makes it look more over hanging than it is.  The First pic ( black water streak) is Plague which is a real good 5.9 especially since it has been rebolted by Clint and Bruce.

Post by: mynameismud on May 01, 2012, 04:50:16 PM
Just to follow up on the Plague picture.  The rope on the left is Wet Kiss 10a, the rope on the black water streak is Plague, the corner to the right is Trauma 5.9, the crack that continues straight out the roof instead of traversing out left is Traumatize 10c, the buttress on the right side of the picture is Zippity Do Da 12.? .

Did I win?
