Waiting with bated breath.....will those be posted on the cover of the upcoming guide or will they be extras for us to pour over, located on pages 400 thru 557??

Still enjoying the endless summer...
might even be able to climb every month and complete the cycle!
We'll see what March and April and May hold.
Hope you're all having fun!
edit 3/2/12 - 18 days till spring!

Whether romping in shadow,
or baking in sun,
Indeed it is time
for renegade fun.

I can attest to the fact that not only does Jeremy know the secret spots, he knows the secret ways to get to the secret spots!

A little help please from soyo regulars...
I have climbed at Fresno dome a few times, but never in the wider soyo area,
I recently drove the scenic byway to scout climbs and approach routes in Southern Yosemite, e.g. Squaw, Balls, Shuteye, etc. So much rock, and so few people on a holiday weekend. I was amazed. I have a couple of trips planned their this summer, and have booked the Rock Creek campstie for the 1st one.
I quite fancy Afternoon Nap on Big Sleep Dome as an intro route. I drove the 7 mile forest road from above the Rock Creek turnout, and found Big Sleep Dome. I hiked towards the dome from that road to the big granite slab, and noticed that there was Green Jeep Liberty parked on the slab itself. There was a dirt road traversing the hillside above the slab, but I couldn't figure out where it joined the main dirt road off the highway. It looked like a great place to camp.
My questions:
1) Is the turnoff for the dirt road to the slab before or after the slab itself as your drive from Rock Creek?
2) Do you need high clearance 4wd for this side road. I have new style Outback, which had no problems on the 7 mile road, but some of the side roads I expolred were pretty rough (thankyou to whoever chainsawed their way through logs blocking the road)?
3) What other routes in the 5.7 to 5.9 range would anyone recommend on either Big Sleep, elsewhere on Shuteye or anywhere nearby (I have the Spence Book of Lies, the recent mini guide, and Slater's Road Trip). If it helps with recommendations, I don't mind a little bit of adventure; I am comforatble to South Crack style runouts and tie-offs for runners.
Thanks,
Rich

Funny it's unstoppable until it hits Cochise where it doesn't fair quite as well. That van does kick ass though.
