George And Martha

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

Leading George And Martha (5.10a) on Sunshine Wall. Nice - fingers to thin hands (with many incuts) changing to hands and short OW near top. Note how the gold colored lichen has been cleaned off near this popular crack (March 12, 2006).

Hey great picture - I've done this climb a few times; I love most of the Vantage climbs. Have you ever done "Stems & Seeds". I climbed that once, and walked funny for about 3 days (sore groin muscles - very big stem for me).

	Hasn't voted	Marc, Sunshine is sort of "the" wall in Vantage, WA. Check out Martin's great Vantage page here on SP for more details on approach but basically, from parking lot simply follow the herd :)

I love this picture. Very vivid color and shows the verticalness (word?) of the columns. Climbed there several years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Next Year

Voted 10/10

Hi rpc ! this looks interesting, hoping to get out to Red Rocks next year, I`m new to SummitPost and it`s opened my eyes to the fantastic climbing areas in the USA, I have been to RRG, NRG and Yosemite and loved every moment out there :)

	Hasn't voted	Hi Mills, yup - sp (& others) has opened my eyes as well...that Old Man Of Hoy formation way up north there sure looks fun/cool for example :) I think Red Rocks of Nevada is one of those places in the lower 48 states that is worthy of a trip from far away. Enjoy!

	Hasn't voted	PS this particular location is called Vantage (Washington state) & it's not worth your time if you're flying in from abroad. My 2 cents. Spend your time in the US on larger objectives. Cheers.
