Left of Del Boy?
Left of Del Boy?
Anyone have any info on the route just left of Del Boy at Torrent? Tried it once last year and thought it would be around a 12. Just curious.
There is definitely a route to the left of Del Boy, I walked by it last night. I believe it was put up by Indiana Greg, the same guy who did the routes on past the poopie wall. The route in question is not in the online guide book, or any guide book, as it is pretty new, I believe bolted last year. I heard that it was 11d/12a, more like 12a, and that it was a little dirty, as all new routes can sometimes be. I haven't heard if it is any good or not, looks like one of those routes you're just gonna have to try and decide for yourself. Hopefully this gives you some useful background information.

ok, it was put up by spoonman mabe 11d/12a. the other routes past the poopie wall and down the hill under the waterfalls and up the hill go like this. left most route, 11c, middle route 11d/12a, right most route 11d/12a. they were put up by spoonman and I. I really recommend the routes, pumpy and technical. some of the better routes in the area.
new routes 2002
Us and Them 5.11d/12a
GG US 5.11b/c
Onaconaronei 5.11d
Whossoier Buddies? 5.11c
Us and Them was tentively named Tangerine when I was working it last year memorial weekend with Joe from cleveland/akron.
Gregg flashed his route, I was belaying and got second.
HB was onsighted before bolted and then flashed by G and G and T-bone.
GG US was flashed, G did it second except for the last 1 foot, potentially I should have lowered the anchors, but at the time I thought the last move was a good (fun/mentally challenging ) idea, Brent from Atlanta was on it that day.
JR are you putting up a few more routes for Mark? He mentioned that he wanted a few moderates for kids/scouts. I can help you potentially and I bet Scott H, might like to get envolved also.
