There is a tag at the top? I climbed a mixed route next to it that shared anchors with this climb and there was no tag.

I was up there 2 weeks ago and again NO Tag. I haven't seen tags at the top of any Muir Valley Routes... thank god!

My DVD works fine on the DVD player hooked up to my TV... sound is fine and the picture is great... much better colors than that night on the projector at Miguel's.

I've seen a tag at the bottom. What good would a tag at the top be?

Why the thank god?? I think it's a great idea.

There are tags of some sort on two climbs at the Indy Wall! :wink:

Greg Martin bolted the line in question for Peter Maroni. Peter decided to open it up with the unspoken stipulation that the FA should pay for the hardware.

Ben, Mike, Andrew, Andrew, I and others all did a burn or two on the project. The crew at Miquel's started calling it "50 Bucks". The footage of Ben was when it was a project, and at the time the name applied. So did the projected grade.

Andrew sent it about a month after it opened up (Mike was really close and ben hadn't got back on it.)

He heard i was in the gorge, found me at torrent and gave be 50 bucks, I thought he said "tripple sec" (long island ice tea), but I tlaked to him saturday and he does want it to be "triple stack".

Super route, very unique and distinct!

I belayed Andrew on his FA of Triple Stack. Since he's the FA he gets to name it. Plan and simple. Great Line!

Thanks Greg for bolting it. :D

I believe you need to follow the protocol for establishing new routes by talking with Tim to avoid any problems..
