Climbing a typical stemming route @ Frenchman's Coulee

Looking over sunshine wall

The approach trail. Stay right toward the cliff edge to reach Middle East Wall (exposed). Take the left fork up and over the plateau to Sunshine Wall

rain is on the way

Partied out concert goers!

light fades, not filtered or doctored.

Sunset

Nic entering the crux as a rain storm appears in the distance.

Moon rise

Even through all the crag dogs, boom boxes, 30' cordelettes, chuffers, and shirtless dadbods there's still beauty to be found.

Climbing during the Illenium festival at the Gorge amphitheatre (5 miles away and still very audible).

Headlamp illuminated walk back on the mesa.

The best part of climbing at vantage is taking the holds home with you!

Vantage/Frenchman Coulee area from an aircraft.

10ish foot tall “boulder” problem about 200 yards down from the restrooms on the left side of the road with a cool undercling low start on clean rock for vantage standard . Probably v3-6

Sunset at Frenchman's Coulee

Sunshine Wall, as you first see it when coming out of the "hallway".

When there's a concert at the Gorge, the collective IQ of the camping area decreases!

The View from Sunshine

Looking back at the campground, South side of the Feathers and Agathla Tower from the mesa on the way to Sunshine Wall.

Frenchman Coulee from the head

The coulee.

Beautiful

Vantage, not sure what route

setting sun over hexagons.

Morning in front of the feathers

Sand choked!
