Steepest route in the Red?

Post by **allah** » Mon Jan 12, 2004 5:25 am

Aight guys, Ive been away for a little while and havent been able to give you my precious input which i know you all are wanting very badly. The Cave routes are not steep at all, i dont know what you guys are talking about, you must be fuckin imbisals. and that shit at bob marley dosent over hang but maybe 5 ft at best. If I had to say what i thought was the steepest route, it would be Ball Scratcher for sure. that thing over hangs like no tomorrow. everyone is scared to get on it cause it is so intimidating. or hell maybe possum lips that things pretty wicked too. So dont sit there and think you know the red better than me and what is steep and isnt steep FUCKERS

i say pink sock gets my vote. there is more horizontal than vertical on it. ~25 ft of pure roof.

So sweet. Never even heard of it. Who's route is it? Do you know when it went in?

Didn't Dirt just put up that route? I hear that you have to run and jump just to get to the first hold.

no..My climb is at Mt.Olive Rock.... Totally bad ass Roof route... Its going to go at a reasonable grade, too!! Maybe only as hard as 11c...Now won't that be a crowd pleaser?

Sounds like Checkmate at Oil Crag. I hope the roof doesn't have a big ass block in it waiting to come off like Checkmate does.

That roof looks about five times bigger than the roof on Checkmate. I can't wait until it isn't red tagged anymore so I can go climb it. It looks fun as shit.
