Re: Slab left of Laughing Crack?

Slab left of Laughing Crack?

Re: Physio Recommend

Thanks all. I couldn't get in with Len or Paolo and wound up going to Richard Boden at Sport & Spinal in Vancouver - he's a climber, had good questions and overall he was quite good - I'd recommend him.

Burgers & Fries - Catch Me Quicker....?

Hey All, Does anyone know if the thick McLane book has the right info on routes around "catch me quicker" at burgers & fries? I was up there today, climbed what I thought to be Catch Me Quicker and Over Forty, but found Catch Me Quicker (way) harder than 10c and Over Forty super soft for 11a. Rockcl...
