I have a cam in below me, and the other cracks are really thin seams, I put a piton in one real quick, but nothing else would work. And then the vertical crack at the top looks like it could break the rock if you fell on a cam.
Yeah, up near there.

Another ground up FA. Trad gear for the whole route, and bolted anchors from a stance. It went at 5.9.

Thinking of heading up to the Tunnel Crag this week. The last time I climbed there was probably 15 years ago. I'm looking for some new route info. I saw a guide recently online but the resolution was pretty poor. It looks like there are a tone of new routes and I'd like to have some idea what I'm jumping on. Any new guided out there or at least a link with better resolution?
Thanks

I saw no signs of previous climbing. Most stuff is short with bad landings. Many problems would be quite stout. Stone is good to excellent. A few fun moderates, including a finger crack. 10-15 feet make up most, maybe a couple 20 footers.
Vetter Mountain. Wait for winter and hit it up for some FA's

I was looking on google earth for rock up the crest and saw Vetter and it looked like it had a huge slab, but when I went there it was flat. But I climbed a few of the boulders and they were pretty cool. The rock was chossy in some spots from the fire, but def a fun day of climbing.
I went to this choss pile the other day. Even the holds that were reinforced with glue with breaking off.

Its a cool looking spot, but the route we did was prolly the worst quality rock I've climbed. Maybe the other lines are better, but I'm not going back there. And yeah, this was the easiest line there at like 10d/11a.
