Steve crossing over the arete on the third pitch of Traveler Buttress. After the arete there is a 15 foot horizontal traverse to the belay ledge (2 pitons). (September 5, 2005).

Good write up Jim!

& nice job on bagging this classic!!!

Good to see an Oregonian adding a 50 NA Classic route located in Cali. :)



Would love to try this one but the weather forcast - EVEN in CALIFORNIA - looks questionable this weekend (WTF??? it's only early Sept!!??).

Re: Good write up Jim!

I agree, very good description and don't skip the first pitch it's really fun.

Re: Good write up Jim!

Thanks Radek! It was a great climb - and I thought Corrugation Corner was classic as well. Some of the steepest, best rock I've climbed on yet.



Yeah, the weekend is looking crappy here. Didn't realize that the same was true for N. Ca! Just thinking about the coming rainy season is enough to make me drink ... :)

Re: Good write up Jim!

It will likely warm back up and we'll have a nice little indian summer.

that's what I'm counting on too JD. Was hoping at least for 4 weekends of alpine stuff in Setp./early October time. We'll see I guess.
