Comments: i want to reiterate the thanks that andy gives out for those who run these sites. the information provided by everyone involved creates a setting for our endless thoughts of being out on a new route, working a problem, gathering beta, or just plain ole discussion. keep up the good work!

Comments: Phenomenal. High quality fingers to hands. A plate under one of the anchor bolts says "crack eat e rope." This is a measure to keep parties from rapping from the top of the pitch although folks obviously do. Be careful when pulling your rope if you do rap from here.

Comments: One of the nicer cracks in the area. There was a family of Scott's orioles nesting deep in the second little pod of the route as of 04/05.

Comments: the first 15 feet was the mental crux for me. a very nice right angling line in a beautiful area warrants a definite three star classic.

Comments: this is worth the hike if you are in the area. though short, a nice clean crack that required all kinds of crack techniques.

Comments: i'm not arguing the ratings/gradings system by any means. i agree wholeheartedly that a ratings system has been set in place based on certain criteria established by those (first ascentionists, guidebook writers, etc) with far more experience than most of us. it's too bad they don't want to come home after quality days of climbing and write in routes (that they've probably already done hundreds of times) at tucsonclimbers.org. i also find it strange that most of the best routes on mount lemmo... more >>

Comments: unlike some...i value fellow climbers' opinions whether they have 6 months or 20 years experience. rate and grade what you like and from your experience. such is the beauty of these sites. when myke komarnitsky and friends created these sites in 2000 it's purpose was to build a community with varying opinions and experience levels. so what is to say a particular routes is or isn't three stars? yeah, some routes are deemed classics for good reason. and others are very debateable. when it c... more >>

Comments: ahh. enter the subjective nature of rating and grading climbs. most of the juice that comes from these sites is from the participation and input that the people and their experiences give it...although this site is lacking a bit. nonetheless it still provides an excellent resource apart from the guidebooks. most of the tucson area guidebooks (at least from the relatively few routes i've done down there) do a nice job in description. however, i feel squeezing the lemmon(s) is very inexplicit... more >>

Comments: ac,

i am partially in agreement with you on the bolted crack issue for this particular route. this is the only route in the area that i know of (not saying much) that is of such debate. i could see here where two bolts protect areas of an unprotected nature...sandy, weak crack system. but where the cleaner crack is, there are (obvious) solid placements.

Comments: one of the neater routes in that area. it wouldn't be a bad idea to put an extension on bolt #2.
