Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : The Trad Lands : UnNamed (5.10a/b)
By: Jay Eggleston When: 5 days ago | view comment >> |
Comments: I think this is a named route in the Tradlands. There is no route with 6 bolts and bolted anchors which is unnamed in the center of the area. This route has no "ticks", and it is not listed in its real location. I think it should be removed from the site.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : The Trad Lands : Dihedral (5.10)

Comments: I agree that this is presently a top-rope line. It could be led with very small gear, but the placements would not be confidence inspiring.

Comments: I replaced the webbing on the descent tree on 5-12-13.

Location: CO : Boulder : Boulder Canyon : Avalon : Third Tier : ... : Ancient Fright (5.10c)
By: Jay Eggleston When: May 13, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: This route deserves its 10c rating and not the 10b rating it is given in the D'Antonio book. It is sustained at the 10c grade on small sidepull holds.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Winterfest Wall : Twinkletoes (5.11a)

Comments: This does have nice moves, but the line, like many at Table, seems to be forced through a strange area and is kind of contrived. It seems easier to go to the right at the crux. I know this is not the intended line, but the line otherwise seems forced.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Winterfest Wall : Runt (5.8 R)

Comments: I gave this route a star if it is done as a top-rope. I would not give it a star as a lead. The first half lacks protection. The upper half has a good crack for pro. The climbing is fun.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : The Trad Lands : Chimney Crack (5.6)

Comments: This line takes pro easily and would be a good beginner lead for someone.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : The Risk Area : Purposefully Put In (5.7)

Comments: There are new anchors both to the right and left of this so you no longer have to walk off.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : The Risk Area : Scraping The Barrel (5.7)

Comments: This is not the leftmost route on the cliff. There are at least two other routes to the left. This now has bolted anchors at the top.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Brown Cloud Rocks : Baggins' Blunt Arete (5.8)
By: Jay Eggleston When: May 6, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: This route is OK, but unless you have nothing else to climb, I can't recommend it. I doubt it has been climbed much. Maybe by Table old school climbers, but not likely.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Brown Cloud Rocks : Anti-viral (5.7 PG13)

Comments: There are several anchor bolts at the top.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Brown Cloud Rocks : Wide Crack (5.7)
By: Jay Eggleston When: May 6, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: This line is somewhat fun. but I don't recommend it unless you have done everything else in the area. If you only use the crack, and not the face, it will feel harder than 5.7.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Brown Cloud Rocks : Iraqi Road (5.6)
By: Jay Eggleston When: Apr 30, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: I thought the route was pretty good. It was not recommended in the guidebook but has no real problems. Maybe the bush on the route was thriving when the authors of the book did it. It was not bad at all.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Brown Cloud Rocks : Ypsilon (5.9-)
By: Jay Eggleston When: Apr 30, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: The rock in the upper crack near the "Y" is loose and crumbly. I went to the right at the top. The route is entertaining, but I don't recommend it unless you have done everything else in the area.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Twelve Pack Wall : Briefcase Fulla Blues (5.7)
By: Jay Eggleston When: Apr 30, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: Maybe this has cleaned up in the last few years, because I did not encounter much rubble or loose rock. There is lots of gravel on top though. I don't recommend the route unless you have done everything else in the area. I can see why it is not recommended in the guidebook, but it is not too bad.

Comments: This route has one bolt up high.

Comments: The crack is really fun when done as a lieback.

Comments: This looks a lot harder from the ground than it really is.

Comments: There is a huge jug in the center. When you grab it, your feet will be dangling in space.

Comments: The holds at the crux of this all seem to be located on the right hand side.

Comments: We placed a nut between the second and third bolts.

Comments: This route does not start the same as "Pump You Up". "Pump You Up" starts about 5 feet to the left in an independent crack system.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Twelve Pack Wall : Pump You Up (5.9-)

Comments: The route is posted here as going up the last two bolts on "Chunky Monkey", but in the Haas/Schneider book, it is shown as going up a crack from the ledge where it is said to go left on here. I guess you can go left if you want to go to a bolted anchor, but you won't be doing the whole route if you do.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : Twelve Pack Wall : See You, See Me (5.6)
By: Jay Eggleston When: Apr 25, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: The majority of this route ascends a handcrack. The crack is not very long, so I see why Haas and Schneider did not give it a star in their guidebook. It is a good crack though. The crux seemed to be the short chimney near the bottom. It is not too hard, but it is steep.

Location: CO : Golden : North Table Mountain/Golden... : MBA Buttress : Brain Dead Ted (5.8)
By: Jay Eggleston When: Apr 11, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: I gave this a star because I top-roped it. I think it deserves a bomb as a lead because there is not much gear that can be placed on it. I bet you would place about 3 pieces if leading it, so I think it is best to top-rope it.
