Comments: Also, if you plan on knocking out some climbs on the east face, you can scramble easily over to the Toe Jam/bearded cabbage anchors directly across on the opposite side and rap from them.

Comments: A #4 camalot didn't do much good (didn't fit) but a old 4.5 camalot or new #5 camalot really works well in the wide section.

Comments: I think the couple of bolts or so from the shoulder was chopped by Jimmie after Greg Childs had freed it.

Comments: The bottom 2/3's is some of the best quality climbing and rock at the ledges. The climb has unexpected beta and keeps you thinking every time you climb it.

Comments: caughtinside is right about the 70m rope--my guidebook warns you to bring 2 ropes or a 70--but is one of a tiny, tiny minority of Cali granite climbers who just doesn't "get" limestone. Many have told me that the last pitch was their favorite!!

Comments: Don't pay attention to caughtinside. If you are expecting nothing harder than 5.9 you will be sandbagged. Nobody in his right mind will tell you that the 10th pitch is anything like the 7th, or the 3rd, or the 6th.

Comments: cool route! blew a foot right after I got that first finger lock and somehow stayed on without losing the finger. the OW at the top is fun too! Every route we did on The Wall this day went through all sizes with the crux on small gear. So Fun!

Comments: A little choss at the beginning to another great narrowing crack. A little thin up high to be a warmup for me. Double zero c3 holds it's first of 3 falls for the day!! Who woulda though?

Comments: The very top hold on the route broke off sometime around 1990 and now the new hold that was created makes the route somewhat easier.

Location: CO : CO Ice & Mixed : RMNP - Mixed/Ice : Glacier Gorge : Reflections (WI3-4) By: Jim Davidson When: 6 hours ago | view comment >> |
Comments: Climbed Reflections 11/24/09 - ice is good. Snow on approach is not good. On the main trail I busted through into a small creek even WITH snowshoes on. Wallowed in powder & depth hoar on final approach. West Gully looked good. Could not see Jewell lake or Black Lake Slabs.

Comments: I don't know if this is already your plan, but when you organize the clean up, it may be worthwhile to get the park involved in it before the clean up happens, versus just stopping by after the clean up and showing them the trash.

Comments: They removed access stairs and forbid climbing because drunk kids with coolers of beer, in the park at night illegally, have trashed it up and fallen down or off the cliffs too. THAT in their mind was related to the use of cliffs for anything vertical. Senseless. But climbing had not yet become a widely known indoor sport back then; no X Games, no MTV or action sports media, so nothing for them to relate to except guys who fall off cliffs with coolers full of beer.

Comments: Paul, pretty sure I got that name from Rusty. Greg, I had heard that name as well, but since I had heard of no competing name at the time, I went with the name Rusty gave it. Can't make everyone happy.

Comments: maybe it is 12b. comparing this climb to disfigured foreigner, gettin off the porch, guardian's edge, and the wizard--all of which are 12a--i think this climb is significantly harder than all of them.
