| Stu Brandel | Not My Best Day Route Finding Date Climbed: Mar 22, 2012 | |
| Did not get to the top - at first I did not even get to the right canyon! I relied too much on some info that I may have misread and not enough on my common sense - and ended up scrambling a small canyon to the North.. Once in Juniper Canyon, I got right below the red rock '2 Turtles' and was skittish about scrambling through something I would have to downclimb alone and tired. Do not take this mountain lightly. | |

| Had to really work to bypass all the ice on the slabs below Brownstone! The junipers are small, the pines are impressive! | |

| Been up Juniper many times. This is often when I talk folks who are interested in hiking in Redrock. Has some fun scrambling but easy to follow path and not too strenuous. | |

| rpc | Couple | |
| 1. Olive Oil (January 1, 2004). 2. Geronimo (January 3, 2004). 3. Community Pillar (April 2, 2006)...if you should find it, please mail me back the left half of my right ass cheek (yes, that would be the part closest to...) as I seemed to have scraped it off in the squeeze on P1 (will reimburse for shipping). 4. The Nightcrawler (Apr. 2008). Very nice root. Hard (for me!) P4. 5. Armatron (Nov. 2009). GREAT FUN route! Great beta by Dow. | |

| Dow Williams | via Armatron Date Climbed: Mar 29, 2008 | |
| 4 routes, 4 days during RRR, 2008. Signed the summit log. Armatron, 5.9, on the north Brownstone Wall takes you to a subsidiary peak to the south. Small 4th class scramble gets you to the top and a walk off descent. Armatron was a fun route on excellent rock in a scenic area of Red Rocks, but does take a longer approach than most routes. | |

| Fun, little scramble in beautiful scenery. I have done it many times and often see Bighorn Sheep on this route. Here's one of my slideshows of the route and things you may see along the way: Juniper Peak via Juniper Canyon | |

| I climbed this one with Robert Tanner. We had planned to climb Crimson Chrysalis but it was too crowded; there was a line at the bottom. He led the climb, set protection and I cleaned the route coming up after him. This was my first roped, multi-pitch climb with someone. A very memorable climb, great weather, and a bit crazy coming down in the dark. | |

| darinchadwick | Olive Oil & Geronimo Date Climbed: Apr 22, 2006 | |
| Olive Oil We did this in 4 pitches based on the new guidebook by Roxanna Brock with twin 60 meter ropes. We never ran out of rope, but we didn't always belay where we were supposed to either. The only real rope stretcher is the last pitch, and there isn't much you can do about that anyway. The descent was easier than expected, a short downclimb move, and the rest was easy. Actually seemed easier than we thought it would be, though the crux moves were fairly run-out on the first and last pitches. What a great climb for tri-cams. Do take doubles of #4 camalot if you got em because the belay on pitch 3 takes only big cams. Took forever to find the old holes where the belay bolts used to be, I usually loath bolt choppers, but bolts are so not needed anywhere on this climb, it was nice to find the carefully covered holes as we plugged in our own gear. Geronimo on September 23, 2006 This has got to be the chunkiest climb I have ever done. After 4 pitches of crack climbing, I can recall only doing 1 hand jam. We were careful and lucky that the ropes didn't snag on the rappels. Rpc's advice is still current, take some long webbing to back up some of the rappels. We didn't, and the webbing was so sun rotten it chafed off on our hands. | |
