Location: GA : Mount Yonah : Main Face : Latest Edition (5.8)

Comments: I really enjoyed this route, one of the most interesting leads I've done at Yonah so far. The runout to the bolt (maybe 30') was a mental challenge but not real hard climbing. I think you might be able to get a 000 C3 in one of those seams before the bolt, but I didn't have mine with me, so I just ran it out. The bolt is well placed to protect the crux, which was the only real 5.8 moves on the route for me. The rest of the route is cool climbing and pretty well protected.

Comments: This bolt is inexcusable. I haven't led the route, but the pro is obvious even from the ground. Hopefully Jody and Michael will dispose of this very soon.

Comments: This route is nowhere near sketchy without the bolt. Oversight or not, the culprit ought to be able to see a good gear placement nearby. Someone please chop it.

Comments: I sincerely hope this was just an oversight by an uninformed party.
The bolt has got to go though because this is a really good moderate trad route, and the TCU placements on it are solid.

Comments: OK, I'm sure this was just a mistake, but someone has retro bolted this route. If you look closely at that picture (cell phone camera, all I had at the time), you'll see the TCU below and left of the bolt in the white streak. They are so close together that I could place the TCU if I was holding a draw clipped to the bolt. As said in the photo CHILL WITH THE DRILL ! Please ask around before you add a bolt to an obvious line at a place like Yonah.

Location: GA : Mount Yonah : Patriot Wall

Comments: The Patriot Wall is the small crag above and to the climbers right of the White Wall. It's very overgrown since it hasn't had much use since the early 90's.

Comments: This thing is V1 and PG13. Might as well bring a crash pad, because your not getting gear in the crux.

Location: GA : Mount Yonah : Main Face : Dihedral (5.6)

Comments: Fun route for the grade. Pro is thin on the start; I got my first piece in about 20' off the deck. After that, there's plenty of great placements on up to the anchors.
I don't know how most people start this route, but the namesake dihedral didn't have any nice crack to use down low, so I started on the slab to the right, which took me up to my first placement in the dihedral. The holds get more positive from there.
