Couldn't find any threads about this,(didn't look to hard), but was wondering if there was any good aid practice in the Tahoe area. Im about 40 mins from Lovers and alittle over an hour to Donner. Any ideas?
Thanks

I could meet you up in Donner for some aid practice. There is a bolt ladder there plus tons of nice cracks. Star Wall Crack is similar to Leaning Tower angle, super overhang. PM me if interested. River Rock has Deliverance on Truckee which is still waiting for third ascent if you interested in nailing A3+/A4.

Ask DrunkenMaster. He'll have some good recommendations.

Nailing routes or non-nailing?
Big difference there. I could recommend routes for both, more for clean aid though.

Yah good point with the nailing and clean. I dont really have nailing experience, just clean. Im heading up Triple Direct Soon and then the nose later in spring and just dont want to be rusty!

You can mess around some at pie shop...some of those old aid routes (Marmot Pie??) that were freed by Dan Osman at 12+ish are good aid trainers and there's some easier cracks for clean, lower angle aiding.
