What are peoples thoughts on P4? I watched someone climb that pitch the other day and midpitch they climbed sort of up and wide left (out of the little alcove) rather than rightwards toward the forth bolt. I think up left is technically much harder.

Thanks for the feedback. I am stoked at how fast it dries with that updraft. Payback for all the scrubbings which blew up my nose and into my eyes!

NE, my bad. And too bad they are no good. It does look good from a far. I figured it was the same piece of granite as the developed side. Though it sounds not worth it, I always figure that access from the Seabird side might be shorter. In 1998 A friend and I explored the side of the Echo that faces...

walking along the base from NN Arete to angle's c there are a number of grown over climbs that looked like good climbs. SOme of these are mentioned in the guide book.

Any know anything about these?

The harrison bluffs are my home crag. That's where I learned to climb. There are some interesting areas there. There are nice (mossy) boulders behind the big hotel, a large unclimbed/unexplored (access challenge) wall on the north west side of harrison more or less across from the harrison bluffs pr...

Thanks for the input harihari. If anyone else has feedback, lemme know.

Best luck finishing up your project.

It will be a sad day in Squamish when bolting cracks becomes normal...! Yeah, I hear you loud and clear on bolting cracks. A lot of consideration and friendly debate over the bolts on the route (and the whole crag) occured. Infact, I waited until the last possible moment to do the final bolting. I ...

a direct pitch into snake (skipping the first scrambly bit). Damien, do you mean, there is one and you want to clean it, or you want to put a new first pitch up? If you wana put one up, I woudl be down for that. I have a drill and I will have some time this summer. I'll attempt to describe with wor...

Also thanks to the Access Society for getting folks out to Murrin on Sat. (If every climber in Vancouver or Squamish cleaned ONE old pitch every TWO years, we would have 200 more routes to climb!) Interesting idea. I am never that keen to officialize things, but perhaps there could be a Squamish "G...

I was thinking of putting an alternate descent that would involve walking climbers left of the pitch four belay, then two raps to the ground precisely for the congestion factor. You can walk off, but the descent is conveluted and 5.0ish so it is not a stellar option. When time and money permit, I am...

Climber leading P3. The climber linked P3&4, which seems to be pretty standard. Also, feedback is that most climbers (unless swing leading to split the tougher pitches and the easier grades) link P1&2, P3&4, and finally climb P5. Has anyone tried this with a 60m rope (I only have a 70m)? http://lh6....

Awesome. Stoked to hear it was dry as wetness was one of my major concerns as to whether not to even begin the project! climbed Wiretap today and despite the rain yesterday it was mostly dry. Great job to those who cleaned this area! Thanks! We linked pitches 1/2 and 3/4 with minimal difficulty. Lin...

Oh yeah, I always forget to do that.
