 | Toprope | 5.6 | | | | | | | Hiked in with Scott to the Swamp Slabs and he led the climb. It was a lot harder than what I previously did @ 5.6 and much harder than the Grand Teton. Great rock and a fun area, just it could use less brush. Mountain Mahogany sucks. No summit, even though I tried. The brush was really, really thick above the climbing area and the peak above us may have had nice views, but it was way lower than Granite Mountain's summit. | _____________________
