Popular Post Barb Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 Good week in Utah! Indian Creek is an iconic rock climbing area near Canyonlands NP. There is the greatest concentration of splitter crack routes anywhere. Absolutely no cell or WiFi in the area so the main parking area and all the BLM campgrounds have message boards where people hang notes to find climbing partners, and let their friends know where they are. We camped at SuperBowl campground about 10 miles from supercrack parking lot. The skinny tower on right in the distance is south six shooter that we climbed in the fall. Crack climbing is hard! I did 2 out of my 5 day climbing trip last fall on splitters. The first day she had us on a 5.8. There was a section of 5.9 in the middle that I absolutely could not get past. I tried for about 20 min, taking breaks, hanging in the rope and finally gave up. You are trying to put your feet on the tiniest little nubbins for leverage and giving everything you have to gain a few inches. It’s exhausting. The next day we did another 5.8 and it took me about 30 min but I topped out. It was so satisfying since that’s the first route she took us to last fall and I only got about 6’ off the ground Several ways to ascend but a popular method is to “scum” your back against the wall for some of it. You notice the worn white line where my back is from people doing this Almost there my colors blend w the rock so you can barely see my white helmet at the top Some other random pics 9 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those too, but in case you were serious, varnish is that dark coating to the rocks formed by minerals, a lot of petroglyphs were created by scratching away the varnish to show the lighter rock. Hot boater ladies were referred to as women in rubber back in the days of wet suits. Now dry suits are much less interesting.

Barb Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 According to our guide, the darker rock is much better for climbing. The lighter white rock is more sandy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JFskiDan Posted May 11, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 I get to hang out with this guy when i take trucks for inspection. wicked smart dog, and really well trained. Another dog that lives a pretty good life. Comes to work everyday, greets everybody when they come here. He is the master of entertaining himself, he is fun to watch when he gets a hold of something he doesnt think should be whole any more. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
