Yas, I think he was refering to the "routes that stay dry" being condensed at that grade.
The red is the best place I have ever been to for climbing in the rain. No place else has so many options when it is wet out.
I really need to get to twall. I have tried twice, but was rained out both times.

It should be dry. It's funky hands/fingers/pinches kind of stuff. I swear it has to be one of the coolest lines in the world. It's pretty short but powerful and pumpy. Bomber gear the whole way.

t-wall doesn't stay dry in the rain...maybe a few of the sport routes near the waterfall, but i think most of those get on to vertical terrain towards the end. the place does dry quick though, especially the faces. don't expect any cracks to be dry if it rains. go check out the obed instead if it rains. everything stays dry there. some of the best sport climbing in tennessee.

NO- T-wall will not be dry in the rain. It does dry quickly- but even most of the sport routes get wet.
The white wall and both caves at Foster Falls stay dry if it doesnt rain too much
