Moving away from the red

Good luck, Chriss! It was cool bumping into you at the crag (and RockQuest) here and there. I can't believe you only climbed here for 5 years, considering your tick list. Well done, man.

It was a pleasure to climb with you. Best of luck to you and your new adventure.

Hey just want to let you all know we're taking good care of Chris er well he's taking care of all of our routes with the appetite of a hungry pitbull. He's a great addition to our little climbing community and the dude really likes pulling on small limestone pockets, which is good because we have lot's of those for him. He even managed to bag his first FA a few weeks ago-- pretty stout .12c really hard to believe he's only been climbing for 5 years. If y'all have any more positive strong climbers like this send em our way! as for wild iowa he hasn't climbed one route there yet, he's been hanging w/ the bad crowd at the secret stash

pigsteak, fuck that. im not sayin it is great by any means, but it is what it is and if it was another crag at the red it would get as much traffic as roadside (not saying road side is great).

with 30 routes at 5.10 or less and about 20 5.11's, 10 5.12's and 1 5.13. the gumbies would eat this place up. and the 5.11 climbers would love the short, steep, pocket pulling, and the 12's are the best routes there (well the cleanest).
