Comments: Anyone have early season stories on Kiener's? I'm curious about attempts and/or turnarounds due to conditions (and what date -- early/late May, early/late June).
Thanks!

Location: CO : Canon City : Shelf Road : Sand Gulch : Free Form Wall : Barney (5.9)

Comments: Barney is a weird route. Every move truly is 5.9 or less, but it's very easy to go slightly off route onto all the 5.10 that everyone is talking about. 5.9+.
If you think it's harder, you didn't find the best way up or didn't rest when you could.
Hint: Two slight traverses.
Good route.

Comments: KTM --
It's not continuous, there are a few places (2 if I remember right) you need to hike to the next set of bolts. We spent only ~10 minutes looking for the next bolt after the two major hikes, but we had a few other people on the mountain which gave us some extra clues.
Just follow directions, and allow an extra 20-40 minutes to pick the line back up after each brief hike.

Comments: Topo is really good. Would have saved 1 hr on our trip, though the route-finding is half of the fun.

Comments: Paul, sorry to hear that.
We climbed it on 3/14 I believe, there was a nicely tied off cordalette around the pitons for the final repel, and a large nest of new and old slings for the first repel.
