Post by Guest »

Hi, i'm new to this site but i'd like to know of a good 12d to work for the summer. I was thinking about tuna town at the lode. Any suggestions?

What kind of climbing do you want? I hear Tuna Town is more like 12b so if you want a solid 12d then that's probably not the one for ya.

Phantasia may be a good one especially since it's sheltered from the sun, rain, and that area doesn't see too much traffic. Some other cool looking lines are 8-ball, Racer X, The Dinosaur, and Stunning the Hog.

Artsay, that sounds like a grade you'd get from the lurkist!
Although for all I know it might be...

Phantasia would be good, stays in the shade. That has to be one of the top criteria if you're working something in the summer!

Tuskan raider or mind meld at the dark side.

you need to get on Orange Juice and do that before you do any of those other routes. It might only be 12c but im telling you that is the route to get on. Do Steelworker too, if you havent already. Convicted would be a good one too. it would be a good 12d to do. High Hard One is really good too. Shanghi at the Darkside is the second best route there. Phantasia would be good too, get ready for the cave for this fall.
