Shady Lane

this is a older trad climb that I was eyeing for a cleaning last time I was out there with mr. Beckey. it was full of plants.

Well now it is clean and has about 8-10 bolts. I feel like it could have had a few less bolts where there was pro, but some of them are great, they must have really run it out in 1975, it is mostly a flaring water runnel.

The 1975 FA gave this a 5.9. Seemed to me to have a couple of 5.10 moves.

One really nice thing about this one is that the rock quality is great.

this is right of a pine tree and left of the West Face route

you could supplement the bolts with a few cams, but it is well bolted.
