KW-We just don't have a campground in the middle of it where you can see and be seen. Oh no...home in time for Naked and Afraid with the wifey and sleeping in my own bed.

Warbler...I sure wish I'd known you when I was living in Poway. Though, I'm not sure you were around San Diego through the 70s and mid-80s. I imagine you were mostly in the Valley around that time.

Crossing my fingers that something comes out of it, thank you for your efforts! Access is tough here in SD..

I'll be in San Diego next week (Tue & Wed) for a workshop, but I doubt I'll have much time to get out and do stuff, maybe get to the gym one night (be there Mon Tu Wed nights)...
any recommendations?

The pictures above, posted by way run-out are part of a fun solo crack circuit with a 10 minute approach and 35 minutes from downtown.
Forgot to mention, great rock quality!

yes, but the workshop sessions run until after sunset... which makes outdoors climbing problematic, even if it is preferable

Got it, Mesa Rim (Mission Valley) is a nice new gym and is close to downtown.

Back at Eagle Peak! We climbed ‘Soul Terrain’, awesome route. Couldn’t have asked for better weather.

Is it just me, or does Prime Rib remind you of The Naked Edge?
(the photo, I haven't been on either)

It’s a great route! I think it’s gotten some more traffic recently..it’s definitely deserving of it.

I remember thinking the start looked kinda sketch on Shining slab? Maybe really overgrown last season? Stellar slab is a good route too. Hey any history of bee problems out there? Had some buddies get in an epic involving a swarm that landed between them on the 3rd pitch of The Direct Route.
Edit: Im a slow typer

Oops checked my notes had routes reversed. We did Shining slab. I wrote scary start but dont remember much...

Yeah, the start was definitely a bit spooky. There was a bit of debate on whether or not we do the route because of it. I think it’d definitely get more traffic if it was less sketchy.

Those boulders look enticing but are generally grainy and loose from my experience. A buddy went in there recently and Ive checked them out myself. That line of rock extends to the base of Hotsprings Mountain.
If you've continued past there and turned right or East on the Pines to Palms Highway, you've seen an amazing expanse of rock up on the mountainside above Ribbonwood.
That has amazing rock quality but the crags are only 30 to 40 feet and the access is brutal. Some of the boulders up there are 4 star.
