Joggin With Charlton

Mike Gasch Problem - He flashed it, and I never tried it.  Start low in the white overhang and traverse all the way out to the west turning the tough corner onto the slab. I gave it V4 because the site requires me to but I have no idea.

Start on good holds and head up the shortest face on the boulder.

Sit start on a left-hand crimp sloper and right two-finger hollow under cling. Reach up left to crimp side pull then to distinct sloper out right. A couple more moves to a tricky finishing mantel. Avoid hollow flake.

Mrs. Balbricker is a Mike Gasch problem.  Start at the lowest part of the rail, work right and then a dynamic move straight up.

Start low on the overhanging arete on the unappealing boulder on the left side of the Pocket Box; not the Not My Thing Boulder. Head up the overhanging arete until you are unable to go further without breaking holds, then mantle up and head to the top. Overall, an unappealing problem, but I put it in here anyway. Potentially loose and dangerous, and about as fun as "sand in your eyes."

Start with your hands matched in pockets and a high right foot.

Sit start under the roof on the cool (and really unique) tufa bulb and do a couple V4-ish moves to reach the holds over the lip.  Next, fight through the crux mantel.  Finish with the harder-than-it-looks slab (V1-ish).  I didn't have enough juice left to complete the whole line and was only able to send it starting with the holds just over the lip (solid V6).  Adding in the two or three roof moves should bump the grade up to V7.  Go get it.

The first documented climb at the Big Waters.

My Dad who got a job as a production assistant, went jogging with Charlton Heston every morning when they shot the original movie here in 1968. I bet that your dad never jogged with Charlton Heston.
