| Well jimmy rated it 12 c/d I'm pretty sure and that was 23 years ago.The first pitch of Mordor he called 12c, how many repeats has that had ? |

| Good point. I remember trying Steak Sauce once but it was always hard to find someone motivated to walk out there and belay 15 feet of climbing. |

| Out at steak sauce today. Those two routes are still in good shape. Anyone know anything about the routes that John put up as well as the climbs that the Smith brothers did up there? There is an upper tier and I think they must be up there somewhere? |
