Good example of a Tuolumne...

Good example of a Tuolumne Meadows-style runout on Great White Book - the no-pro' section between me & Gordon (shown) is fun 5.3 - 5.5 face climbing. Don't slip! Tenaya Lake is down below. July 2005

Re: NICE!

Thanks, Radek. Figured others might appreciate what makes so many of the climbs there R-rated. Spooky at first, but exhilirating when you finally get to a place where you can look back at the runouts!

Re: NICE!

Yikes! Not sure if a pendulum fall (scrape!) from a traverse would be worse or straight down (thud!)... Nice lead! I take it you didn't end up testing your Aliens :)

Re: NICE!

Thanks Dirk. Ditto on your Tuolumne handy work :)



yeah - thankfully did not test any pieces on that one.

Pendulum

Sure would be rough on a long pendule. Still, not as bad as having a Canyon Wall at the end of it. I'm thinking Coyote!
