Texas Tower Connection
With Danny Urioste. I had climbed Yellow Rose of Texas with Steph the week prior and Danny had been wanting to see Yellow Rose. Jorge and Joanne suggested we do the connection as well. Combined, this is a fun moderate and as interesting as anything back on the main wall, but the bolts are 35 yrs old and the 3rd pitch seam needs about three of them replaced to supplement about three modern gear placements and then this route is good to go. I thought both traverses protected good enough with existing options.
