Craig moving to free a "catty" cam near top of P1 on Kat Pinnacle. Nice grundgy 5.5 with break-away holds! 16 May 04

Voted 10/10 | In the guidebook, they list that climb as 5.7 A2+ but on the drawn topo they only identify the first pitch as having 5.5 moves. Obviously, after doing the free section, the listed rating next to the route name is more accurate. Even adding a "+" behind the 5.7 rating would be dead on for all the exfoliating and expanding flakes! If there were any 5.5 moves up there, it was the task of staying balanced on top of the 1st pitch belay! | | Posted Jun 9, 2004 3:02 pm |

Hasn't voted | Most definitely Dave, the route is slightly different now since 3 holds came off in MY hands! What was the point of using pro? "....they all fall down." | | Posted Jun 9, 2004 3:39 pm |

Voted 10/10 | I'm glad you agree, BBOP. I was beginning to think I was inflating the ratings! Hopefully, someone updates the next Reid guide edition. | | Posted Jun 16, 2004 12:12 pm |

Hasn't voted | It's the 3rd pitch that is supposed to be 5.7 - a chimney to the summit. Don't know if it's got breakaway holds too or not. | | Posted Jun 16, 2004 12:35 pm |
