A few new routes...

Not a bad weekend at the Meadow - I met Bob, Matt and Katherine this weekend at the Meadow; My roommate Ryan and a RRG rock star Moya and her dude rounded out the group - we had a good day of climbing Saturday - though we got a hardcore storm Sat night - which drenched everything.

We bolted a handful of routes:

Right of Pooh's Thought Spot:

(Names and Grades are tentative:)

Hard Pipe Hittin' Tiggers (5.12b) ***: Follow techy slab to a super unique crux move including some serious kung-fu tigger moves... SP

Right of that:

Something Tigger?? (5.11d/12a)* Pull a low roof and continue through technical edging on perfect white rock to the roof. Clamber through the roof on slopers and finish with an in-your-face repoint crux. SP

Right of than and left of Low Brow:

Matt's New Route (5.10?)***: Follow the bolted slab to a high anchor. SP

Right of Plumb Pudding I bolted another route:

Staying on the Line (5.10?)*** Boulder up through a thin crux and continue through plesant jugs to anchors. This route climbs crosses the bolted hand crack and continues straight up the face. SP

I put an anchor on and scope the line to the right of Depth Charge - it doesn't go out the roof - at least for me - maybe for Chris Linder or Matt Fanning...but I'm not gonna waste the bolts...

I'm waiting on a shipment of 100 hangers - once I get those - I'm going to bolt the line inbetween Pipe Hittin' Tiggers and the one to the right - it looks good and will probably be moderate.

Also - I want to bolt a handful of lines at Area 51....which I won't of course talk about until the iron is set =)
