Route at Roadside

Post by **Steve** » Mon Jul 07, 2003 6:29 pm

Johnny, did you all put any cold shuts up there to top rope that 10b? I always thought the anchors looked older than the bolts and hangers (when they were on the route).

Well, to make the online guide a bit better I took the weekend and did just about every route at The Arena along with the new routes at Roadside. Got pictures of everything as well as better descriptions too. It was a great time. I really enjoyed the easy routes at Roadside.

Johnny,

You all did an amazing job back there. I've never been back there but I see why so many people like it. It must've been a ton of work ... so thanks.

That's cool. Now is the time of year for just chill'n out, doing some differnet stuff and having fun...cause damn was it hot!

Keep up the good work on the on-line guide. I know it is a lot of work.

Yea. Trouble Clef just took me away to another place. I couldn't believe what a beautiful topout it had.

Also, nice work Mr. Hamsco on Edge of Your Seat at The Arena. What a freakin' line man.

Chocolate Waterfall too........hot damn. Cool moves and another beautiful munchkin-land like topout.

I swore off of RRG gossip long ago, but I have first hand info on the unnamed .10b.

a) Tony Reynaldo didn't bolt it.

b) Tuna Boy did chop it. The quote went something like this: "I'll use those hangers for something better." As far as I know the weasel never bolted anything.

My Tuna Boy info is second hand but it comes froma guy that climbed with him a lot who told me that TB told him that.

I really dig Edge of Your Seat too! Way cool. Love the top section especially!! Exacta was cool, but the bolts seemed a bit too far to the left???

Glad you liked Chocolate Waterfall... I wish I could still climb it without falling.

Glad you all like those routes. I think it's a fun place to go when you just want to do some footwork and not have your hands killing you by the end of the day.

SCIN, Just Duet is to the left of Kampsight and is probably a bit hidden. The base there is very narrow so a lot of folks don't even look up. Pretty cruxy down low.

Stevo, I didn't put the anchors on that 10b but seems like I saw them there when I was doing those other routes. Cold shuts, as I remember. I'll try to re-equip that route soon.

Yeah, when Tuna Boy was denying it, I wasn't too convinced.

Yeah Johnny, there were cold shuts on that 10b. Minus the bolting practice at the bottom the line wasn't that bad. Re-equiped that route would be a nice re-addition to the area.

I'll do that. Maybe we should name it "Smells Fishy" or "Sorry Charlie" or something like that?
