j mo Feb 9, 2023 Courthouse Butte > Coyote Tower (5.10c 6b 20 VII 20 E2 5b) Here is a quick, best recollection of the Coyote Tower route.

Josh Janes Jan 14, 2021 Bell Rock > Bell Rock - Kamps Route (5.8 5b 16 VI- 15 HVS 4c) 2 bolt anchor about 30' up the climb. The right bolt looks to be mixed metals. Hmmmm. ● I agree with everything Ken said above, with the exception of the statement "mixed metals are only an issue… View Comment
Paul Zander Jan 13, 2021 Bell Rock Bell Rock - Kamps Route 5.8 ● 1. Remove mixed-metal bolt from unnecessary 2 bolt anchor at 30' above the start. Yes, no, other thoughts?… View Comment

Derek Field Jan 11, 2021 Bell Rock > Bell Rock - Kamps Route (5.8 5b 16 VI- 15 HVS 4c) North side of Bell Rock. Sad that such a special place is covered in graffiti. ● John, seriously?!?! Forget this idea altogether. Go explore some new rocks that don't look like this. It sh… View Comment

John Knight Jan 11, 2021 Bell Rock > Bell Rock - Kamps Route (5.8 5b 16 VI- 15 HVS 4c) Evidence that this was climbed before modern cams and sticky rubber. Those old school climbers were bada. Btw, this piton still appears solid. Use at your own risk! Fortunately there's ample natural pro nearby. ● Piton is actually slightly off route and not necessary. Probably should be left for historical character. I… View Comment**
John Knight Jan 11, 2021 Bell Rock > Bell Rock - Kamps Route (5.8 5b 16 VI- 15 HVS 4c) Yes, there really is a bolt with a wing nut on this climb. ● This bolt is slightly off route and not even necessary. Plus, it has a wingnut on it. I think it could be r… View Comment

Nolan B Aug 7, 2020 Bell Rock > Bell Rock - Kamps Route (5.8 5b 16 VI- 15 HVS 4c) On 7/8/15 I took Peter Gersten, age 73, up this route. He's been to the hiker's summit 350+ times and has taken over 1000 people up there, but this was his first trip to the true summit. He'd only climbed once before, 20 years ago in a gym in New York. ● Inter-dimensional travel is easy but 5.8 is haaaaard... View Comment
