in the gunks, bedtime for bonzo would probably be a 5.4. it is not stout. the 2nd pitch is exposed.... for the red. not exposed like the gunks. but if you really want muli-pitch trad follow wes' suggestions.

Where is this table rock crag? I can't seem to find it in the online guidebook.

You could use the #2 that AgentWTF fused as a starting point for your anchor. Bring up the second to the hanging belay and finish the job.

he's from the Gunks. a 5.8 in the Gunks is no joke.
Yeah, Gunks 5.8 = RRG 5.12. Really. I know because someone from the Gunks told me so.

Bcombs-how is the drive into muir valley? Would my lexus be OK? In general, what are the cliffs not accesible in such a car? I understand that muir alley is some sort of private climbing park. How much does admission cost? Also, I will be traveling with two dogs. They generally like to roam around in meadows and are very friendly pooches :D. Are there a lot of nice places in muir valley for me to let my dogs roam?

Ha ha...

Your dogs should be fine, but Muir has a no Lexus rule. Muir is $20.00 per day per visitor. Send your donation...err...admission to the Friends of Muir Valley.

Have fun on your epic adventure!
