Looking past the Sun from Teepee Tower Crack on Wigwam Dome. Note the beautiful water grooves. And note that rock formation in the distance at the end of the valley. We hiked past that on our first time approach to Wigwam.

The mantle may have been 10+ when I first climbed this in 1975 when this photo was taken. Since then a key hold has broken and the foot holds have become way more polished.

Chuck just about done struggling with the finish to P3. As with P2, the crux is not the overhanging layback, but getting established on the lower angle rock above. The piece above Chuck is a good green Alien. A good idea to keep the rope from running over the top cams if the second should fall. Shortest approach in Boulder! That's our car below. Just like the old days when you could park at the base of the Bastille.

Chuck going back up for another try at the 10+ P2 layback. The crux is transitioning from the layback to a mediocre jam at Chuck's high piece and then pulling over to stand on a good foothold on the left. It's not too bad on TR, but hard to stop and place gear. The piece above Chuck's right knee is a fixed hybrid Alien, and the piece above that is a big fixed stopper (fixed as ot 6/27/04).

The main thing I remember about our ascent in 1975 was the 4th pitch which was much harder than it was supposed to be. EBs, painters pants, 60/40. Not sure how it was protected in those days with no cams. There may have been some more pins.

The route from a diferent angle. It starts right off the tree in the middle of the photo, angles left connecting the successive vertical cracks, to reach the crux pitches up the obvious crack through the overhangs in the orangge rock at the top left of the photo.

At the 2nd bolt, perhaps the P1 crux, although the pitch is pretty sustained. Clipping this bolt is a bit cruxy also. The first bolt is down and right with gear below that. Psycho goes straight up from the first bolt to a pin and then traverses right.

Matinee, P1, 1976 approximately. Photo by (I think) Hardie Truesdale, now a successful landscape photographer. Classic! Flip-flop stoppers (2 on a single cord so that you can flip one over the other as opposing wedges), 2" red swami, home-made leg loops, green Shoenards (stiff like cinder blocks), all ovals, and, of course, painters pants.

The face left of the climber is Paris Girl, 13a. Left of that the crack angling left to the arete is the top of P1 of Disappearing Act 11a. The left facing corrner left of that is P2 of Sunstar.

A close up of Wigwam in the afternoon on a cold bleak October day. I won't draw in the routes, since I've only done Teepee Tower Crack, and that's out of sight on the left, but...<br />The huge arching roof is On The Edge. Rambling Rose traverses below that roof and then up into the left leaning left facing corner. Trail of Tears is further right, near the skyline I think. The big tower on the left is Teepee (or TB?) Tower. The big corner on its right is Hill's Route. The smaller right facing corner just right of the left skyline is TB Buttress with Warpath climbing the narrow (in the photo) face on the skyline. Teepee Tower Crack is the left facing corner (not visible) formed by Teepee Tower.

Below the 5.9 crux on P4. It's runout but relatively easy off the belay, then you get small but good gear up to the crux. This crux move seems easier to me than the P1 and P3 5.8 pitches.

High Plains Drifter continues up the slab above. Howling in the Wind climbs the wide crack in the large corner right of Chuck at 5.9 and then moves left at the large triangular overhang into the left facing corner.

1981. The Fat City Direct crux en route to the first continuous ascent of Requiem via the Fat City Direct variation. Fat City Direct climbs straight up to where I am in the photo. Requiem climbs a wild feet dangling hand crack over a bright orange roof just out of the photo to the right. The true Requiem crux, originally aided, first went free at 12 something, and then a hold broke (but maybe still free). The large right facing corner at the left of the photo is Gelsa, 5.4.

Just layback it! Yes, but then it's hard to get gear. Luke is placing a cam blindly. Hopefully he'll take a peek at it before he continues climbing.

P1 has some fun stemming. You can do P1 and P2 as a decent 5.9 climb and rap from good sling on horn anchors.

The route from a diferent angle. It starts right off the tree in the middle of the photo, angles left connecting the successive vertical cracks, to reach the crux pitches up the obvious crack through the overhangs in the orangge rock at the top left of the photo.

Starting the hand crack. Cozy Hang traverse to this point from the right. There's a photo in the Rossiter guide of Nancy Pritchard from above in this same position. It looks like she's soloing.

Looking at the overhang blocking the way to the upper slab. This overhang looks forbidding from the ground, but it's pretty small and pretty easy, maybe 5.8.<br />Photo by Chuck Graves.

Above the crux on P2. The crux is the thin crack and tiny left facing corner through the overhanging headwall below Luke. The climbing is easy up to there and very easy but runout above. The final large red corner is about 5.7.

Approaching the P1 crux. The flake my left hand is on is suspect. You can get one good big brass nut just above this flake in the main corner. The gear below is dependent on the flake holding. If you're tall, the crux is getting stood up where my hand is. If you can't reach the jug from there, the next move may be the crux. I Did it My Way is just to the right.

On the 5.8 or 9 first half of P2. The white streak to the right is bird shit. It gets worse, much worse.

The regular route (see Dihedral), goes left at the flake. The direct goes up the corner to the top.
