This past weekend we flagged a route from the top of Powaqqatsi to the base of UE/UE. Head left from the last anchors for a short distance and then go up steeply and cut back right. The forest opens up quickly and about 10 minutes of easy going leads to the start of UE/UE. The old flagging noted abo...

Re: Upper Powaqqatsi

UE/UE seem to start "across" from Powaqqatsi, and maybe one tier "up" as well - has anyone successfully thrashed between the two?

I will try to flag out a route between them tomorrow (Saturday), if anyone's interested in the link-up.

Powaqqatsi; 5.10d - 7p

I saw the topo for this posted in the "Chief Area" and thought I'd drum up a bit of noise. Powaqattsi Topo Seven new pitches in an area of the Chief not many have visited.
