A friend and I climbed Mescalito in September 2010 and had the whole route to ourselves. Of the 6 El Cap routes i've done, Mescalito was definitely the best. Although the climbing is relatively straightforward, it is sustained from the first move to the very end, with each pitch being about C2- C3. Perfect rock, fantastic views and a spectacular location. Do it.

I agree with Warner. I did the Mushroom in 2000 and thought the flaring cracks were no-fun. Basicly I remeber 1 good pitch on the whole route. Mescalito stand in line, but its easy C2 the whole way. Bet sunkist would be super good. I hear chill for the grade.

Your style is suspect, pass your penis Pete.
Circumspect. Trustifarian. You're a pretender in the tribe.
Go back to MonTauk.

Brian, how were those bolts when you were up there on Sunkist? Plus a bump for more pics!
