I was looking for some other stuff but found this book of mega clean topos that I made back in the day.
It refutes something I said up thread but I'm good with that. I led the second pitch of Swept Away on the FA in 2 different pushes....OK what evs.
There may be other cool stuff in here.
I remember now....we went up in the late afternoon and I got the bolt in to protect the crux and RV took the shot in Mtn. Mag. We were done at that point. I was worked.
On the ground were Jim Dutzi and son(?) with peyote. We hustled down and ............

NO, NO, I'm thinking it was "Son of Sam." 5.10a !!!!!!!!!!!!!!5/85
Oh, and also, I'm thinkin' "put up ropes" means you put up a rope, not just standin' around twiddling your thumbs while some other dude put the rope up.
Just sayin'.
Johnny, I left there yesterday around 1pm.

*Chocolate Sundays became Afro Awareness Week
All routes as listed in Bartlett's 1991 guide, Rock climbs of Indian Cove
*Mr. Pibbs & Madam Wrong's: both are bolted slabs. They are further up the canyon from Rattlesnake Buttress, beyond Hightops, and on the right. A few 1/4 inch bolts per climb. The routes went unreported.
*Hey Jeff, the 200 Motels mystery is solved!
We did in fact climb that route. It is not a mis-attribution in the guidebook, as you see it was included in my drawing.

Ha ha.
Spanish Bayonet was Lynnie's lead, and has since been retro bolted.

 In the second topo, see Jeff Sewell's skull and cross bones markup!
We all saw her run it out past ground fall territory and then place a shaky hex.

Wonder who did the deed? Mistaken second FA?
We climbed it in Feb. '93 and the bolt was there, so sometime prior to that.
I have no idea how we ended up back in that canyon that day, but kind of recall it being a nice route.

Probably Bill Todd and John Nye.
They did these some of things in 1987, before we reported any of it.
