Roof crack bouldering?

[Wes]

Anyone up for some roof crack bouldeing Friday or Sunday? WDC and maybe this other thing I saw a couple weeks ago. Long approches are required, but still suck.

where? in the Red?

long approach like walking FS9 back to Indian Creek Crag, or long approach like hiking up to T-Wall?

the weather looks uncomfortably warm this weekend, but i'm considering driving down solo tomorrow night through sunday afternoon. i'll make up my mind after i get some sleep....

[Wes]

Yep the red. Long approach like FS9 to pistol ridge and pebble beach.

I work Sunday mornings, so would be able to get out til 12:00 or so.

Sweet project for some roof crack bouldering freak. Might end up as a route though, as the lip is kinda high and the landing kinda bad.

That's the thing Hampton and I played on.

Send it? It just seems kinda tall for a boulder problem, yet it would be a really contrived route, if you just started it in the middle from standing. Guess, maybe sit start with a rope and gear then, place a couple peices as you get higher? That would be super contrived. I guess I just need to recruit about 5 spotter and 10 pads or something... Very cool (and pretty easy) from the sit start to about a 1/3 of the way out.

[SCIN]

Man, I really can't remember what we did on it. I'm sure we didn't do anything dangerous though or else I would've remembered. We didn't have a pad or anything.
