Im heading out to Utah for a couple of weeks in Mid May. coming from the east coast and was wondering where I could set up some tent camping near Joe’s Valley?

Tony D If you are talking about the problem 4 or 5 feet to the right of Planet Of The Apes Mike Bockino sent it while I was there and im not sure if it had been done before. He called it V8 I believe. The problem on the back side of the planet of the apes boulder to my knowledge has not been done. It is not a particularly good piece of rock either.

It seemed pretty good and all the holds on it are there to stay ( for the time being.) I’m not familiar with Darryl. Is it pretty difficult if he didn’t send? I guess I’ll try it no matter what. I just don’t want to claim an FA if it isn’t mine.

Darryl Dodson put some effort in but I don’t think he completed it. I tried it briefly but broke two holds and walked away.

Did anybody send a problem just the right of “planet of the apes”? I had some chalk on it but not much. I even had to put some chalk on a couple holds that weren’t obvious. I tried it and all the moves went. Starts in a dihedral on good jugs or incuts depending on which holds you like and you have a heel hook and bomber heel toe cams. It then quickly leads into long reachs on poor holds. It’s kinda on a bulge. I’ve been down there a million times and never noticed it until I saw some chalk on it. It’s definately not “Vegas”. Let me know if anybody has done it or know what it is/rated.

Kudos, Jamie. Sick post.

Anyone know the rad looking ultra highball that you can see across the road and up from WAMU? I hiked up there (~15 mins up hill) and the line was chalked, looks mega.

has this gone? also, we’ve been doing more recon in huntington and have found some gems to go back to this year.

noah

btw, East Coast Pass is rad. nice one, Rocco.

Great work. So appreciative of everyone (Rocco, Anthony, ect..) that keep pushing to put up great lines in Joe’s. The place has such good rock and so much potential. You guys are amazing.

On another note, has anyone tried the Black Butter Project (unofficial name) cleaned by Heath Lilly? I *believe* its just the left side of the right fork from No Additives. It looks very hard.. Tall and good landing though.
