Newly Established and Found Routes (Since the '07 Guidebook)

[JC w KC redux]

I think both areas will be dry.  The Voyeur Wall has an easier approach but it is shady.  If you choose to climb there remember the climbs go right to left: Sticky Monkey, OCD Overdrive,  then Cutting the Rug,  
Have fun!

Agreed, both areas will be dry.

There hasn't been any precip since 2-27 at 10:30 am - not that I am keeping track or anything  

NOAL - I thought there was one more hard route done to the left?

I think the Kid should have to help you and Mud finish Piggyback Relay Race before she climbs on Voyeur  

I've got plans to kick it old school tomorrow with KC and anybody else that's interested - do some climbing and rebolting out where the wild things are.

Too bad it is supposed to rain Sunday - I was looking forward to 2 days but I'll take what I can get.

Now the question is - will the Kid check back here in less than a year

NOAL - I thought there was one more hard route done to the left?

Yes, but there is not an anchor on it . That's one reason why i wanted to clarify the order.

No problem dude. I just seemed to remember some talk about another harder route there that Steve climbed.

I DON'T GET ON HERE ENOUGH! At least seeing and/or replying to your quips late is better than never

Real question: I'm looking for directions to Old Man and Voyeur crags and any other new stuff in the 5.10-5.11 ranges. Has anyone written anything up or are you guys still protecting your secrets and potential lines or am I just incompetent at navigating these forums? Also do you think that stuff will be dry by tomorrow?

I'm not sure if you made it out to either Old Man or Voyeur, but if not, drop me a line. I'd love to head out to either area with you on one of your free days.

For Voyeur, hike up the High Peaks trail until just before the first tunnel.  Just before the tunnel the crag is on the left, there will be an oak tree in the middle of the trail and the Sew What Needles will be off to your right.  For the full tour, ping Gavin : )

I added four more routes to the list today:

-  196.8  Hard Knocks  5.8

-  325.213  Mud Bath  5.8 ***

-  388.91  Pow!  5.3

-  388.92  Boom!  5.3

Note that the Russ involved in the first ascent of Hard Knocks is the same Russ who’s new to this site. He and his friend David had extra room in their campsite the night before this climb and shared that room with me. One comment led to another and before long they were both sucked into joining a morning of first ascent foolishness on Pinnacles rock (thanks for joining in guys).

Well the mystery has been solved for me. I thought maybe you guys finished your project elsewhere.

I also made the following modifications:

The route previously named Dumpster was renamed Dumpster - Right Chimney (self explanatory). The routes in The Outback were reworded (since Fixtures is the first route that appears on this list now), and what was The Central Outback - North Summit is renamed West Summit. Finally the Primrose Pinnacles description was reworded slightly.

The new phone book is here...the new phone book is here...I'm somebody!

Nice.

I can modify this quote a little for today's Young family news:

"The new Learner's Permit/Provisional Driver's License is here, the new Learner's Permit/Provisional Driver's License is here... Tricia is somebody!"

Now don't that make you feel old?

[Brad Young]

Public shout out too to J.C.  He reads all the new entries looking for inconsistencies and errors. Behind the scenes he's helping to make this list better. A lot.

Thanks John!

(And BTW, I can post a photo of my poison oak patch if you want to see it. It's almost the size of a quarter and if I scratch it hard it would show....)

No problem dude.
I just finished my walkabout in the Outback and it looks good.
I did however develop a bad case of motion sickness from all the lumps, bumps and summits 

There is no mention of PO but that goes without saying...

I'm an excellent driver...Dad lets me drive slow on the driveway every Saturday...

Please make sure she learns to drive a stick. 

[mynameismud]

sticks are dead.  Go electric.

I's rather be dead than go electric.
