There is DBNF land very close to the PMRP be sure to check out maps before bolting.

Done some checking, all the routes I was eyeing are on hold, for the time being. BUMMER!!!! Glad there's some interest. I'll keep trying and keep ya'll posted. In the mean time, if ya'll know of any, let me know. Maybe the weather will break before March... I hope it's decent this Saturday for Miguel's 25th.

It's supposed to be sunny and in 50's from Friday to early Sunday. Maybe some rain Sun. aft. Good enough for me. Rain will put out the massive bonfire leftovers from Saturday I suppose..

What grade/type of routes are you looking for? There are still a ton to be bolted out there on PMRP land. I would be glad to point you at toward a few lines I have looked at, but haven't got around to bolting yet. Here is a brief list:

Just to the left of Aural Pleasure there is a shorter, but nice a steep face. The route would share anchors with AP, or could have it's own set right below. maybe 5.11 ish if you can keep people on the face, and not on the other route.

There is another route just to the left of that - has anchors that might need to be lowered, and probably need some cleaning. Maybe a fun 5.10ish slab. Check with Meadows to make sure it is open (though I heard is was).

The face between wearing out my welcome and yankee go home looks like a fun 5.12ish sorta route. Could share anchors with Yankee go home, or have it't own set a bit left and down.

At the Bronaugh wall, turn left right at the cliff line, and there is a cool water groove. Maybe 5.11? Gets wet sometimes, but usually looks dry enough.

Should get you started, lot's more rock out there, on open to bolting land, just have to look around a bit.

I handed it and the anchors to RRO so it is.
