Hasn't voted | It's worth mentioning that this is not a sport climb, even though it is protected with bolts. The route was established "back in the day" by trad climbers in traditional style - bolting from stances without aid on lead. This explains the widely spaced bolts, and of course the convenience anchor at the top is recent addition. | |

Hasn't voted | Yes, I was careful not to call it a sport climb, only a bolted climb. Thankfully almost all the bolts have been replaced, though when I climbed it there was an old Leeper spinner about halfway up. Don't know if it's still there or not.... | |

Hasn't voted | We did this route yesterday. I couldn't believe it. A Sunday afternoon, with the most perfect Josh weather possible and there was not another climber around. There were about 5 cars in the real Hidden Valley Lot. All the bolts look great. An unintended consequence of the nice new anchor at the top: Puss n Boots seems to be getting a lot of TR traffic, and it's delicate little holds are getting worn down... | |
