Routes at Muir Valley

Post by pgmarker »

Just wondering if anybody knew the names and grades of the two climbs to the right of face up to that arete. They are not in the mini-guide and I was just curious. Thanks!

The left one is "Makin' Bacon" 5.11b (5 bolts, ~40') put up by J-Rock. The next one to the right was put up by T-Bone and is named "The Happy Fisherman" 5.12a (5 bolts, ~40-45'). Enjoy. There will be much more to come! AFter we put in more routes we will update the mini-guides. The progress is going so rapidly that it is difficult to keep up.

Yep! The blackberries are ripe... although there are still some bitter ones, so watch out!

What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.

Is this the same reason that none of the Muir stuff appears in the online guidebook?

M, yep, it's been hard to try and get the mini-guides up to date. We pretty much put up a bunch of routes every weekend and have decided to update the miniguides (www.muirvalley.com) after a certain number of routes have been added. As for the online guidebook -- are you referring to the one that Ray has here?
