To put it bluntly, you're screwed (on this one route).

Keep in mind that the crux move, on a fairly blank face, is a very long and balancy reach to a good edge. Anyone who can't clip the lead bolt would also have no hope of reaching the edge (that's why I went ahead and put the bolt high).

Can you access the top of the wall? Place a few bolts on the way down?

Please note that if Tuff Chik climbs granite too her Pinns membership will be revoked. All FA fun escheats back to Mungie.

With all this granite talk Mud may need to change the dns to point to a new domain name.

Granitencrud.com


Post “DIE” coming in 3...2...1..

My membership may have to be revoked - I'm going to drive up after work tomorrow and enjoy another weekend on the G word.  This Tuffchix still loves Pinnacles, but I don't like climbing in 100 degree weather.  I'll give Pinnacles plenty of love later in the year.

Get creative - like we always do!  :)
The "best" climber is the one having the most fun.

Only if you get your lily white butt up here and help with the FAs....

Right now, the 150 foot route we've started right up the middle of The Mother Slab (right of the corner seen in J.C.'s first two photos - that slab) is gonna get the name "Mom." And a nice face-to-crack right of that will get the name "Kay Louise."

Lots and lots more to do, lots more "mom-themed" names to use.

clink - I have two small weirdly-shaped red patches (slight sunburn) on my giant forehead where the sun was shining through the vents in my helmet while I was looking up into the sun most of the day.

 Not sunburn, your horns are starting to grow. I hope they are centered.
