Location: TX : Reimer's Ranch : Serpent Wall : Blank Page (5.11a)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Feb 16, 2013 | view comment >> | Comments: I only found 2 bolts on this route. I think this is actually a great route becuase there is not a lot else like it. The bolts are pretty spaced, yet perfectly placed giving the route a bit of a heady feel but without any real danger. The climbing in the second half is slabbly in a trad kind of way that I haven't seen a lot of at Reimer's.

Location: TX : Barton Creek Greenbelt : Seismic Wall A.K.A. Maggie'... : Just For The Fun of It (5.10a)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Sep 3, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: The finish to this was really quite cool. I don't know why more people don't do this route (no one at the wall had done it the day I was there). Getting to the roof is pretty lame climbing, but the roof is a really cool lime stone hand crack running through a roof. I've never seen anything else quite like it. Great jams and good feet make for a really cool finish.

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Little Cottonwood Canyon : Albion Basin : Devil's Castle : Black Streak (5.10a/b PG13)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Aug 16, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: Near the start of Black Streak there is a mysterious looking rope dangling in a crack to the left. Wondering what it was for, I approached it and was scared away by a massive shower of fist sized rocks that fell without warning from the top of the mountain. Stay away from the dangling rope!
This climb reminded me a lot of Squawstruck in Rock Canyon: 5 great pitches, two lousy scramble pitches; lots of loose rock; massive exposure; long sport climb in a spect... more >>

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Rock Canyon : The Jobsite : Air China Flight 924 (5.8 PG13)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Aug 14, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: the last pitch is where it's at. I thought it was some of the cooler trad climbing I've done in RC, but I wasn't crazy about pitches 1 and 3. Use really long runners on the first pitch and you'll probably have a better time with it, but it's still some of the bushy-est climbing I've ever done.
I personally felt like P3 was closer to a 5.9 than a 5.7, but that's just my opinon. I felt like it was the crux of the route in terms of climbing while p2 was the crux for gear placement. Too bad more peo... more >>

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Rock Canyon : Hidden Wall : Knightmare (5.11c)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Aug 9, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: tore off a giant hold on the orange portion of the climb. Be really careful because it feels like some of the bigger pieces are a little loose too.

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Rock Canyon : Cool World Wall : Cool World (5.11a)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Aug 9, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: It looks like the route hasn't been done in sometime, so I figured I'd update the conditions a little bit.
The first pitch is still spectacular, fun and unique. The third pitch is also a lot of fun, but something must have broken off the 2nd pitch. I have done a lot of 11's on limestone and felt like the 2nd pitch crux was more like an 11+. It could be that holds have broken off, as there were really no feet up to the pocket, and even after snagging the pocket it was pretty hard to work up to t... more >>

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Bell's Canyon : Middle Bell Tower : Arm and Hammer (5.11c)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Aug 7, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: Great route. Really glad we went out to do it before leaving Utah.
Most things have already been said, I'll just add a few things I wish I had known before hand:
Approach: Once you get into the part of Bell's canyon that has the tall granit(esque) towers, they get a littl bit hard to see, and it's not the easiest thing to figure out which granite tower is the middle one. Arm and hammer is found on the thrid granite tower. don't count the tower of quartzite (looks like Rock Canyon's Bad Bannan... more >>

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Little Cottonwood Canyon : The Fin : The Dorsal Fin (5.10d)
By: Brandon Bishoff When: Jul 31, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: We did this today and had a really hard time finding one place that told us how to approach, how to identify the pitches, and how to descend, so I thought I would write it all in one place:
Approach: park .9 miles up the canyon near the gated area that houses the LDS church vault. Follow the marked cairn trail/bushwack for a long time. As you walk this trail you will pass three distinct gullies. Walk up the third one. The entrance to this gully is very close to the vault's parking lot. Follow ... more >>
