Trundling opportunity

There's a report on Mountain Project of a large loose block next to the top anchor on Borderline. I checked with Andy, who made the report, and confirmed that it's by/on the dead snag that's a couple meters R of the final ring anchors on top of p5.

Re: Magic Brush?

Thanks -- I'm looking forward to getting a quiver of these from Triton soon.

Re: Millenium Falcon TR - some great shots

Hi Sibylle, Andy, et. al. Getting on MF (and, the next day, the Bulletheads East pitches) really got me excited again about Squamish after many years of absence. That was a really nice piece of vision to recognize the potential there and make it happen. The line looks like nothing from the parking l...
