Never been to Mt Spry and the guide makes it look choice. Not much info on MP, making me wonder about the routes: Dances with Zulley and Sandblaster. Anyone done them or heard good things?
I've done sandblaster and central pillar with zac--I think central pillar was a FFA. They were both so sweet. Go straight up the "lightening" off width on the huge pillar on pitch 5 or so-where sandblaster and central pillar cross-(thus avoiding the 5.11 dirt pitch with little pro around the corner down canyon).There is an anchor on that huge pillar thus making it possible to rap the route.
Mount Spry Routes I have done Holly Roller 5.11, 5 pitches and Shark Tooth Freighter 5.10, 3 pitches. I would give them both 3 out of 5 stars. Decent and worthy, but not spectacular by any means, i.e. a Kung Fu Fighter or Smash Mouth. Much dirtier climbing on Spry in general. I would recommend all the Tunnel Wall and Kung Fu Fighter Wall stuff first.

Thanks! I'll keep them on the tick list!
Anyone done Risk Management?
I've been off the trade route list for a while now (except for the cragging areas where I definitely want to spend some more time). I've heard nothing but good things on a few routes on the Watchman as well.
swamp donkey on spry is a fun route short A1 or 5.12 section super fun a little sandy. the watchman is amazing, cragmont and the Kungfu theater are excellant mutlipitch cragging. mean high tide and gorge animal steel are also amazing days out
