Sideline, 5.9

1st Pitch- 180’- 5.7/ Face north on the large ledge you scrambled up to. There is normally a considerable amount of water collected here during the winter and you need to work at keeping your ropes dry. This long chimney/crack pitch is broken up by easy ground for the lower half and then gives you a few sustained moves toward the top. I might have placed two pieces of gear as I recall. Belay off of tree. (photo) Sideline, 5.9, 4 Pitches, Lower Solar Slab, Oak Creek Canyon, Red Rocks, NV, February, 2009
