El Potrero Chico - day 3
Mar. 31st, 2009 07:18 pmToday - Treasure of the Sierra Madre, another 7-pitch 5.10c (740 ft), but this one was really 5.10c -- I took a few falls, had to sit on the rope and look at bits before attempting them, etc. So, apparently grades are somewhat inconsistent.
After that route, we started up a 2-pitch climb that Becket says was 5.9 -- but it was as hard as the hard stuff on the previous route. I called it off after the first pitch.
Then, on the way out, led a 5.8 (or so).
Someone borrowed my guidebook today, so I can't give precise ratings... though I may edit them in.
