...Weather is warming up down here in San Diego... just wondering if anyone knows the general climbing season for Tahquitz or Suicide.

I haven't climbed at Suicide yet/ I'd like to do a few routes up there this season. Also, are Suicide ratings as sandbagged as JTree?

Check out the photo in the thread over on Supertaco.

It's not as bad as it looks however. A week of warm weather and the south faces of both Tahquitz and Suicide are dry enough to climb. The problem is dealing with a postholeing approach and sometimes slippery descent, (Fishens' Folly?).

Ratings and runouts at Suicide and J tree are comparable, and no, neither are sandbaged.
