Not today, but last Sunday finally got out on some ice.
Broken Hearts, P1-2 "in" but lean.
P3, IN
Beyond P3 the gully was akin to canyoneering, with too much water to continue on.
Walking out with daylight to spare. A first for me.

Jack, my brother Dan, an I took some well known climbers advice and got up at three to leave the parking lot at glacier gorge first and climbed the west gulley to the slab and then walked off right. fun climb but the long approach may not be worth it

75 yards off the road is this little paradise of sandy loose rock, sharp cracks and no crowds.
Climbed a little awkward dirty established 5.9 and then added a new (?) 5.9+ roof move out some classic unaweep grit crack above a mudstone recess/roof. Dubious protection on the hard moves for sure.
Then we rapped on some bomber hardware (shudder)
To set the TR on a favorite little 10+ roof with some fine chicken wings and horizontal groveling to turn the lip into a more reasonable squeeze chimbly. Got it clean on the tr after some prolonged moments of terror as the rock pinched too tight to turn my head
I climbed this thing about 18 months ago and it felt harder than I remembered

Brave cowboy, at least they tried to drive that anchor in farther from the looks of it due to the dents on top.

I am happy to have this thread. Seems like a majority on this page know the dubious dirtcam.
Sandbagged my bouldering buddy into following me up the first pitch of Great Corner on Arthur's Rock S side. Poor kiddo was so gassed by the squeeze chimney that we bailed on the next overhang pitch of "9+" squeezewidth . And here I thought the p1 crux was the bouldery lichen festooned L hand layback on the rotten pegmatite flake to stem into the oozy wet black wide right foot with two lobes on the yellow Totem at my feet and a so-so only cam that'll fit 3.5 three more below.
So we rapped. Nemesis climb in that second pitch for sure, tunneling L of the higher flake
EDIT

Thanks WRM, I dig it that you get it.
