for me, maybe The West Side, hahahaa

well, probably Nexus. Trippy place up there, and no one climbs that thing.

I don't go to any obscure areas, but so it will have to be tailspin, which I did finally manage to do. Everyone should go do it 20 times and break all the loose shit off. Some day I will do obscure scary stuff and become a master

... or dead or injured...

totally just kidding Burner.

Tailspin counts. Not a classic route, so there's two.

Feather Canyon

oh, nice one. Still gotta get on that.

does "The Hatchet" qualify as an obscure climb?

Perhaps I enjoyed the overall experience more than the actual climbing...

My picks of a few:

Condor Condiment, long, little loose, cold as hell if it froze over.

The stuff on the 2nd-3rd Sister.

Heavens gate, loose, but you get into a cool position on the arete.

AquaCruda on Knuckle ridge.

St. Valitines Day Massacar (sp?) is one of the best due to the view.

Am I supposed to pick one?

Hey Jody, how bad/ wide is Feather Canyon? Might have to do it this year before the closures.

It was quite a while ago when I did FC. I don't remember having any trouble on it so it must not have been too bad. I just like the isolated nature of it. The crux is finding the beginning of the climb. Oh, and my dad was the FAer so that makes it kind of cool.

That page of the guidebook is now done. If either of you want a copy, give me a snail mail address, and when I can find time I'll mail you a copy (and a copy of the map that covers the area too). I think my photo and description will make finding it and then doing the climb very easy.

E-mail on the way. Thanks Brad.

Shoot the Tube comes to mind. It is cool, not real hard but never easy.

F4? · « **Reply #13 on:** December 14, 2006, 07:47:14 PM »

Always wanted to do Shoot the Tube. Split Infinity as well.

The Big · « **Reply #14 on:** December 15, 2006, 10:20:01 PM »

right now I am thinking what ever route I happen to be on at the time.

Jody Langford · « **Reply #15 on:** December 19, 2006, 03:19:07 PM »

Wow! Thanks for the sneak preview of the guide Brad. Very nice! Now hurry up and publish it!

I must say that Bills bad bolts should be considered. Except if you are 200+, some of them bolts are going to rip.

Now for new routes I've yet to do (except rap down) would have to be Rock around the Clock. Damn, Clint and Bruce did a nice job putting it up.

Mr Mud/ Munge, there's more potential up there, except the rock will need to be cleaned.

PS, they replaced the key-chain bolts on Gary and Phyllis.

Damn....now I get to toss my small nose carabiners. :-)

Note quite yet. Bruce "preserved" the character of the route by only replacing a couple bolts so you won't deck. 1/2"ers on some. Pretty beefy.

Long live Bonati death beaners and Wild Country's!
