Time of Year?

Darling, what time of year was this photo taken? And which way is east/west? :/

Re: Time of Year?

- Around late June or early July.



- This side of Temple Crag is facing north. Behind Temple Crag is the Palisades. This is the view we'll get as we make the final approach up to Third Lake.



Wubbies...

did you get the start right?

Dave, I always start the Sun Ribbon just above the "island of rock", you have it traversing in from the left. IMHO one of the best pitches is the first, a left facing corner, 165 feet long, about 5.8.

Re: did you get the start right?

Uh-huh.....I went mostly by Moyier and Fiddler's description when we did it. I'm sure you can start it low like you described but most come in from the left and traverse the ledge to the base of that left facing corner.

Dark Star location?

Dave --

I always thought Dark Star was located to the left of Planaria, yet your photo shows it to the right.... ?

Re: Dark Star location?

That's where Moyier describes it to be. I've never done it. I saw your TR FFA of Planaria. Nice read. Makes me wonder too....



I'll check it further.

Re: Dark Star location?

Check Secor second edition photos: Barefoot Bynum and Dark Star both to the left.
