Cool

Looks fun, nice job. Is this WI3?

Re: Cool

Thanks Martin ! Most of the flows on that side of Chouinard Falls are rated WI3 to WI3+ or so. None of them are more than about 100 to 110' high and they all end on bolted belays.

There's an online overview of the routes in LVC here (I think this is called 'Piolet' according to that site). A more detailed print guide is sold at local shops in Mammoth & Lee Vining.
