Goodro's Wall (5.10c), (@Storm Mtn Island, Storm Mountain, BCC)

[jman]

After doing both routes on "Error of our Ways" (5.6), which was a great warm-up, Jeff then took us to Goodro's wall.


From Mountain Project:


"Arguably the first 5.10 in North America. Fun route, good gear, good jams, pumpy. Feeling burly cause you sent it? Some cowboy did the same back in the 40's."


The last time Jeff lead climbed this was about 3 years so he was a bit anxious to conquer it again. But what a A GREAT climb! It is highly recommended.

(If you can't sport it, the route to the west (right) is Six Appeal and a 5.7 in which you could climb and walk over to top-rope Goodro).

Jeff did a excellent job with no mistakes and only 2 rests in about 8mins (the guy with the green shirt). The rest of us....well...uh....not so much.... Time to start practicing again!!


Here's a few pics (and I apologize for the blurriness) from the climb:

Was this a sport or trad lead to get to the anchors? looks really cool.

trad.

However, the one next to it, called Six Appeal (5.7) allows for fairly easy access to the top so you could top rope Goodro's wall as another option.
