| Dmitriy leads Barndoor onsight on Halloween day. A cold snow flurry day. Sun just wouldn't come out. | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Barndoor (5.8) | Burt Lindquist | Nov 3, 2009 |
| P3 A nice casual solo | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| The final pitch if you use the Turks Head chimney option instead of Weissner's. Someone will need to post this thing in full winter conditions! | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| Magic Ed likes the solid rock - been climbin' the Potrero limestone way too much! | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| If you bring a rope, finish on Weissner's, if not, go North around the base of Turks Head tower, then up this chimney - easy and interesting | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| P7 Magic Ed - most guys his age like to watch golf on a Sunday afternoon - Ed ain't afraid to do a little soloin' | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| P7 - the double cracks to the left are really fun- I'm doing the face to the right - easier variation | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| P6 I like to do the corner left of the 5.4 crack on this pitch - seems like one 5.6 move. You can go further left and do it at like 5.2 | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| P5 Starting out on my favorite pitch, the 40 footer. Take the left crack system up to a big ledge, then an airy traverse right to the right corner | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| P3 The inside corner is easy on this pitch - the 5.8 crack is just to my right, and 5.6 on the far right of this wall. | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| P2 The way I like to climb this pitch - very easy and cleaner than the corner, just more exposed | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| P1 The first tower | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |
| You can do this route as 5.4, or maybe easier, ALL YEAR LONG! Here is the boulderfield at the start - first tower visible top center. | WI : Devil's Lake : ... : Turk's Head Ridge (5.8) | Paul Jones | Sep 28, 2009 |

Location: WI : Devil's Lake : West Bluff - Cleo Amphithea... : Cleopatra's Needle : Cleo's Needle Southwest Dih... (5.6) By: jay.kalamazoo When: Oct 19, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: i got the top and the my second was coming up. the tower starts to wiggle....i think...i'll jump into those trees if this thing falls...that will help break my fall. And then i realize....i'm anchored into the top of the needle...and if it goes, i'm going with it.
much like the gendarme at seneca, climbing this thing is a must and a exercise in faith.

Location: WI : Devil's Lake : West Bluff - Cleo Amphithea... : Turk's Head : The Green Slime (5.10c) By: Paul Jones When: Sep 29, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: Another way to locate this is by climbing Turks Head Ridge - this is right around the corner on P5, the 40 foot inside corner. Goes to show that you can do Turks Head Ridge at a more committing grade.

Also, I have a copy of the guidebook you should be using: "Climbers and Hikers guide to Devil's Lake" dated 1970
