Salmon Song

Salmon Song

Starting up Salmon Song (5.10a) at Tieton's Bend. Route apparently derives its name from the salmon-colored patch under the roof. Route pulls the left side of the roof after a slabby approach. Right side of roof is The Tiers (5.9), an equally fun route (June 2008).

Nice!

Nice shot man, glad to see you guys made it back to The Bend. I never tried this route, it sure looked fun from below. I agree that Tiers is a good fun route, despite the 1 star rating in the guidebook. Pulling that roof about half way up was pretty memorable and the wide handcrack above that is good.

Re: Nice!

Thanks Martin. Yeah, I thought they both were of same high quality, with pretty much the only difference being the crack size above.
