Northern Apron Dry Time??

Post by gnarnaphobe » Sat Mar 26, 2011 9:28 am

Hey guys, wondering if any one has any beta on how fast the cracks on the north apron dry? The Boudron book has a little fast drying emblem on calculus.

Climbed Calculus on Thursday afternoon. Dry as a bone

The routes should be fine, the "approach pitches" may still be damp in a few key spots, but nothing unsurmountable. I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who knows if the new direct start to Calculus Crack is drying faster than the standard tree climbing extraveganza. Might be worth checking out... It's certainly cleaner than last fall. You can see it gleaming from the highway.

Seriously. Dry as a bone. Even the tree climbing pitch. Looked at the new start and it was dry too.
Didn't believe it till I stuffed my fingers in the crack
