| St. Paddee's Day | [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ] |
Shirley near the top of St. Paddee's Day on Star Wall in the Lower Gorge. Nice, varied but short 10a crack. Obvious wide section topped off by an off-fingers bulge is the crux IMHO. Crack immediately on left is Turning Point (5.10a; Oct. 15, 2006).

Yeah, this is a relatively low quality line but you're right - most "classics" in SMith's Gorge are stem-boxes with cracks of various sizes. | | Posted Oct 16, 2006 5:05 pm |

Hasn't voted | THE classic stem box at Smith: Pure Palm 5.11a - no cracks at all (hence bolts).

Hasn't voted | It's called "basalt" - volcanic in origin but beyond that you'll need a geologist :)
Thanks for the visit. | | Posted Oct 17, 2006 3:10 pm |
