Gumby- yea the quality down low is chossy, but up high the jams are great on CS. Of Coarse is chossy till you reach the S crack (as the name implies). Glad you guys checked it out.
Dan n Kenny - I've got a new climb in the works up left of the Green Tongue. Scrubbed and pulled loose blocks for 4 hours yesterday. Might head back today to work a bit more. I think it's gonna be a good one. Steep thru roofs with great jamming and 3 variations to the chains. I also scoped Scott's lines, they look good.

Thanks guys. Spent another day scrubbing and rope soloed the route. I'd say it clocks in at a mellow 5.10. Steep but with good jams and rests. Pro to #2 with a set of nuts will do. Enjoy!

Thanks Jebus- I'm not sure but I think you were on the 5.11 just right of Dr. Sleep. Dr. Sleep only has 1 bolt then traverse left under a roof to the chains.

Scott, do you approach your climbs from the top? I soloed some 5th class vegetation BS to get to them and then over to the top of the green tongue wall. It was a sketchy adventurous thrashfest with a pig in tow. Not gonna do that again.

Going in from the top sucks just as bad.
It's time for cloud walker to get bolted or the climb to the left needs to get cleaned and climbed. That would be the best approach.

Ron
Married life is great. She puts up with my sh#t so I cant complain. Loves to rock and ice climb and loves to go rockhounding with me so I cant complain. If you have any secret rockhounding spots Im all ears.
I do wish I could stop her from her bad habit of buying purses and shoes though.........although she is turning into a gear whore as well.......but it has to match!!!!!!!!! ahahahhah all biners have to match etc.
Shes great

The 5.5 is just to the right of the vegitation/crap. There are two rap bolts for the anchor and you can walk to the right to get onto the ledge. It's a little dicey though per Dan.
Cloud walker is now bolted for lead per Dan and I.
Has its own anchors, 11 bolts,and its freaking stout.
It's an amazing route that takes strength on crimpers, a hell of a lot of good footwork, and figuring out a very specific sequence.
All of which I failed.........
But the bolts went in easily!!!!!!!
Enjoy.
Shawn
Dan Thanks for waiting for me to help bolt this great route
