| Toprope | 5.10b | Sport | G | 1 Pitch | 110 ft | | | mike and fletch invited me along for my first visit to isolation canyon
beautiful setting 
the approach goes up onto a plateau, then drops into the canyon
the main wall is accessed via a ledge with a pretty good drop off
from the north end of the main wall, could see up into pine creek narrows
chumley's [ photo ] shows the ledge
started with green lantern, a long 5.8
moved to the center wall to climb slate's day off, rated 5.10a
then two challenging climbs on the south wall, both 5.10b
sent arrogant chums, but had to take a short hang on kestrel's last stand
good sequence of difficulty, good sample of routes
mike led all four sport routes, fletch and i did everything on toprope
loved the rock and the setting, and can't wait to come back for more
saw showers move around us, got a few sprinkles, heard thunder a few times
thought we might get hit on the hike out, but just missed the storm to our east
very humid, but the main wall is in the shade
had a great time in a new place |
