Note for 18 Sep 04: I went with Blair Piggot. We were suppose to go alpine climbing on Custer, but bad weather turned us toward rock climbing. Blair got half way up and the rain started to pour down. I got about half way up and then we both retreated.

Note for 25 Sep 04: I went with Blair Piggot and Chris Goble. This was our approach route to reach Split Cleavage.

18 Sep 04 - This is looking at Expert's Choice wall on the south side of Mt. Crandell. The yellow line shows the route called Local Decision. It's a one pitch route that is used to reach Raspberry Ledge, which is where a bunch of other routes start. Up and to the right is a major crack that is called Split Cleavage (5.6). We traversed over to that route and went up there.



18 Sep 04 - Here is a closer view of Local Decision.
