| no partners | | I have been staying in Pinedale since last Thursday. I spent my first few days hiking some fringe areas that I have not been to before and waiting out a little weather system for a potential trip into the backcountry. Yesterday, I drove a couple of hours to Idaho to climb in Wyoming.
This area is an extremely popular area and the trailhead was almost sickening busy. Of course the weekend and holiday were contributing factors to this, but I was pretty shocked at the amount of people hiking this trail. Nevertheless, the climbing was fun, the setting was amazing and the nature of a couple of the multipitch routes provided a sense of adventure. The rock was granite and relatively featured for granite too, which made the climbing fun. Climbs in the area ranged from five fun easy trad lines to extremely technical sport lines up to 5.14a and a few multipitch routes. I really enjoyed the morning out climbing and the cost of entry could not be much lower, the first crag we went to and main wall is about a ten minute approach from the trailhead. In fact, the formidable main wall can be seen as you pull up to the trailhead. A little warm though, we climbed until there was no shade. I can't imagine climbing on those walls in direct summer sun.
Happy Fourth of July! |
