| Since of course there is no ice season, I guess that there is no rush to get this out "on time..." But here itis! [LOL] So we have been on the weather roller coaster for over a week. But finally things have calmed down a bit. That said we really need rain. You won't find me complaining about an inch or two here & there, so by all means bring it on. I was talking to friends that live in the Denver area and they are in som deep doo-doo out there. No snow means no water, PLUS high fire danger. [YIKES] |

Route of the Moment
Above And Beyond -
5.9+
The first pitch was established by Joe and Judy Perez several years before the second, thus the FA history is somewhat complicated. In the spring of 2011 the Perez's and Al Hospers went up to check out a possible second pitch and Al found a nice 5.9 line that went straight up off the Wanderlust belay on good rock. Several weeks later the threesome hiked up to the top of the cliff and rapped down to top-rope the line for pitch 3. A couple of months later, in early July, Joe & Judy went back and drilled the bolt holes for the last pitch. On Bastille Day 2011 all three went back, put the bolts in and Joe led the last pitch. |
