Placing a cam? Slotting a nut? Slinging a tree?

Power2U, Bob Marley was pretty shady for the most part. Dogleg was in the sun earlier but around 1pm it was in the shade.

You'll love Soul Ram. It's completely bad ass and insane.

Thanks Artsay. You are right about the bugs too. They couldn't be more pissed off than they are right now. I don't think they liked me swinging and flailing at them either, but that's beside the point. :) But as P2U said earlier, this was a damn good weekend!

t-bone,

I did What's Right with the Underling? this past weekend and while lowering off I checked out Out on a Limb. Not only do the Porter hangers look scarry but the holds look terrifying! I was on Corpus Delicti (11d) this past weekend too and after the 4/5th bolt the holds went from fun to heinous crimps and smedges... and that was at 11d I can't imagine what Out on a Limb at 12c is like..the word HEINOUS come to mind. As for has anyone been on it...to me it didn't look like it had been climbed since Poter did it a decade ago....it is vert. and with all the rain any chalk would have washed off. It would definitely need to be cold out for me to get on it.

I did it a long time ago with 1 hang. then did it clean on tr. then i got on it again a few years later and got shut down,seemed like one those crimpy little holds had broken off. there one serious blank section now. plus those bed frame hangers and old bolts are spooky!

Preach on brother!

This route is the epitome of "trust your feet", cause for about 20 to 25 feet your hands aint on much!

As for Out on a Limb... I'll have to try that if I ever Red Point Corpus Delicti :!: :?:

Yea, I couldn't get that second long ass reach move. When I locked the undercling off I was still like an inch away from the little pointy crimp. Aside from that, the route was completely bad ass!
