3 new routes - bald hill (and a road update, for the better)

Postby PeterA » Sun Jun 13, 2010 6:59 pm

First off, the road into bald hill has been graded recently, so it is now smooth all the way in and is accessible by any vehicle.

now, new routes

(can be listed after the open project
Shooting Monkeys in a Barrel 5.12b S(10)/90'/R(2)
FA:P. Adamson, J. Adamson
FFA:P. Adamson, J. Adamson
20' right of the large roof on the main wall, start below sloping shelves. Make a hard mantle, and continue up through overlaps to a right slanting dike. Follow the dike to a large horizontal. Traverse back left and surmount the final bulge to the anchors. An excellent and challenging route the entire way.

(Can be listed after regeneration)(regeneration should be listed after neopolitan)
Bebop 5.9 S(4)/40'/R(2)
FA:J. Adamson, P. Adamson
FFA:J. Adamson, P. Adamson
In the middle of the main cliff, at the highest point of ground, climb up funky featured rock through several horizontals to the anchors. A great bald hill moderate that is a great way to get used to the techniques needed for bald hill climbing.

(can be listed after Bebop)
Rock Steady 5.10 S(6)/50'/R(2)
FA:P. Adamson, J. Adamson
FFA:P. Adamson, J. Adamson
Just to the right of the highest point of ground in the middle of the main cliff, start under a small, left facing corner. Climb slab to gain horizontals then up to anchors. A great introductory bald hill moderate.

Breadbox Crack – 5.10+ g /n/r(2) 30 feet FFA: Cory Hall, Jon Adamson June/10

Climb the roof to the left of scarred for life, then up the nice hand crack to a ledge. Traverse out left to gain another sweet hand crack to the top.

Bloody Monday – 5.9 g /n/t 25 feet FFA: Cory Hall, Jon Adamson June/10
Climb the OW found 100 feet left of stumped. A #5 camalot protects it ok, a #6 would be nice.
