F***ing Warm At Pinns
« on: December 05, 2007, 09:14:18 PM »
Looking for climbs in the shade today. At one point got on black rock that was quite hot. What a difference in one week. Back to rain tomorrow night.

I thought it was pleasantly warm there yesterday at least where we were at the Gargoyle to the Shaft and High Peaks.  Today it didn't start raining until we were on the trail hiking out from the Yaks.

Yeah, and I got three routes in I hadn't done before. Thanks, Joe. But I was sure bummed about the Yaks. It looked like there has been absolutely no one there for this season and last season. The light "use" trails at the base were nonexistant. No sign anyone has been there in a long while. I guess climbers just aren't interested in adventure any more, just "moves" close to the car.

Snowing here at home now.

I'll call you tonight Factor (BTW you never answered the question I asked in my email).

I was at Pinns last season too!!!

I think my membership is about to expire though. Need to re'up. Going for the platinum membership this year. Apparently you have to have a recommendation from a prior FA'ist to get in.   Hoping Jim will sponsor me.  I suspect it may involve belay duty on some choss formation tho. ;)

It's worth a trip to the Yaks, if for no other reason than to do the undiscovered gem "in the soup".  Surprisingly, there was no wait to get on it and the climb offers several feet of actual climbing, none of which require climbing shoes.  Granted it did not pose the additional challenge of needing to thrash through forests of poison oak that "Ola Verde" poses.  Yet given an opportunity to climb Foreplay or In the Soup, no doubt the crowds will flock to the Yaks soon.  so get it while you can.

lol....sounds like a MUST DO. BTW Joe, where are you based? I'm full of vacation and don't mind on occasion bailing out of work to head to the Pinns mid-week. SO long as you talk as much smack as F4 that is.

Joe, sarcasm doesn't sound good from you. And remember, what we did seemed like it was "In the Soup," but I'm not yet sure. Maybe we did a first ascent? (If so I'll keep your name out of it, just like I promised.)

Never forget, doing a  new climb of any quality is light years  better than repeating a climb of any quality.

Have fun in Josh.

Totally a must do.  Especially if it was a first ascent. 
I'm in the santa cruz mt/los gatos and always into going out to play.

I like the Yaks, so quiet, no one around. It's been a few years.
