On the right there;....9 leeper "Z" pitons;...worth their weight in gold;...great for stacking and very hard to find. Dave Evans and I used to covet the ones we had, and we loved them like we loved our mamas.....and we used them alot out in the desert southwest and in The Valley and elsewhere. I don't do much aid climbing anymore, but just the site of these pitons fills my breast with desire.....(picture that...)..
For sale, silent auction, and raffle prize.
Thank you so much johntp for sharing your awesome collection with Tom!
If anyone else has ANYTHING climbing to sell, silent auction, or use for raffle prizes for this awesome event;...please mail to me; Todd Gordon
P.O. Box 138
joshua tree, Ca. 92252
or bring to the event the day of.....or get it to me somehow. Help us reach our goal and beyond for this important and fantastic fundraiser!

Here is "something sweet' to add to the list as promised.
This is a 38" X 48" vinyl wall banner of a rare John Bachar shot of America's Sweetheart Lynn Hill powering up the last pitch of the Nose. This banner has a sleeved top and hangs easily. Just a bit too small for the Oakdale Festival Wall of Fame but it will look fabulous in your house or office. Bidding to start at $250.
johntp is beyond generous! Good on ya!

it is so awesome to see everyone stepping up. Many thanks to the Gordons for hosting another benefit. Todd I'll bring my stuff with me when I come down.
I plan on leaving the Bay Area on the 8th and was wondering if anyone needed a ride. I am also wanting to do some climbing while I am there. Let me know if I can tag along or if your looking for a partner. I planing on staying for the following week too.
Really looking forward to seeing everyone again.

a present for Guy;......(The climb is Fried Monkey Butt..the climber is Steve Powell......)_...
Lost Rock Area
This crag is near the Hospital in Joshua Tree. It is best accessed off of Hwy 62 from Sunkist Rd. (about 1 mile east of Hospital). Turn south on Sunkist from Hwy 62 and drive about a mile until you come to a fence (National Park boundry). Park here and hike straight south to the hillside with large split boulders at the base and a few slabs on the hillside. This is the Lost Rock area. Allow about 35 minutes for the approach. You can also get there from Section Six (Onaga Trail) in Joshua Tree off of Park Blvd. Drive up Park Blvd. for about one mile until you come to Onaga Trail (Section Six ) on your left (east). Drive east on this dirt road a couple of miles until it turns to a 4X4 road. Park here (If you don't have four-wheel-drive) and walk about one mile to the National Park boundry. If you have a 4X4 vehicle, drive another mile on this road until you come to the National Park boundry. Park and hike east ten minutes to a hillside with a slab and some large boulders at the base.
(176) Boing Loin (5.10)**
Six bolts to a bolted anchor on the east face of a beautiful boulder at the base of the hillside. This excellent climb traverses right to left on a white dike.
FA: Todd Gordon, Kelly Vaught, Frank Bentwood, Tucker Tech, Taylor Diehl, S.B., Andrew Jones
(177) Fried Monkey Butt (5.10-)*
Located on a very smooth slab just above Boing Loin on the hillside. Friction up a blank slippery slab past four bolts to cold shuts. Faces north.
FA: Todd Swain, Donette Swain FA: (Lead) Todd Gordon, Tucker Tech, Kelly Vaught, Tony Yeary, Steve Powell, Rebeca Russell
Nearby worthwhile climbs: There are five routes on the big slab above Boing Loin and Fried Monkey Butt (The Panorama Heights Slab). Some have bolts to anchors and could be considered sport climbs.
Here is another shot of the same climb.......

The Fried Monkey Butt is a very cool climb...but not as cool as the Boing Loin, which is nearby......it's outstanding....here are some pics of it..
From this last picture...fried monkey butt is the smooth slab in the center of the picture;......Boing Loin is down on the boulders down and at the bottom left. This picture was taken from the very end of onaga road (section six).....coming from the west and looking to the east. You can see these crags from hwy 62 as you travel east past the hospital......just look to the south on the side of the hill......
