Getting there - still a big ice block at the base of where Gray gets the most shade but no biggie. But that is a large formation and I only climbed a couple of routes there, so I wonder if it may still have some runoff in places, some dampness in any mossy cracks. Minerva, Owl, Beagles Nest all seemed much the same if not even better condition as they get more sun than Gray in general. The creek I heard was a bit much for crossing for getting to Electric or Owl currently.

Is it just me, or is there kind of a rest hole/cavity in the grey rock side of that chimney, susu?
Gotta get back, if that's where I think it is! Oi, my memory is fading...

Hey Nater! Yes there is right by the old manky 1/4" anchor that no one would be well served to use as an anchor anymore. This is Old Man's Fancy. Or Young Man's... I too forget.... which is which. It is a classic.

Such a great pitch, one of my faves on that rock. Nice job Dan! Looks like you all had a great time.

Yes a great time tho you two were missed!

That climb may look grungy, but it is cool and interesting in the moves it demands. Reminds me of a corkscrew, twisting and turning and looking all around while going up. But in addition to the giant arrow head death flake lowish in the climb that doesn't seem to budge, there is a block a couple few bricks in size on the left wall at top of the pitch which forms a short shelf for an irresistible hold which is actually almost completely hairline fractured. Seems solid for now but maybe not for long.

In the last photo, in the crack above Sasha's left shoulder a .5 is like the bomb. What an awesome pitch! Miss it and that whole rock. Miss you all too. And John and Sue thanks so much for coming all the way out to Pine Creek, meant a lot!

I know the crack you are talking about, you panic for a moment looking for gear then bam....relief!

We hope to see you soon Jeff we loved that visit. Gray misses you too!
