I was woundering if anyone has done these routes that are bolted along the highway going to Frenchtown along the road. I am just curious. I saw it on rockclimbing .coms routes and was trying to find some more betta and history of these climbs. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I am not real sure about the history of the area, but as for beta; the routes(3) on the west side are in the 6-7 range all bolted with anchors on top, the north facing routes are smooth and .11 or higher..have yet to actually make it up one of these. There are a few routes on the east side, one over the Clarke Fork that will send you splashing if you peel before the second or third bolt. The rock is at a "rest area" just east of the Cyr exit. Walk downhill, you'll find them. As an aside, it is a bit of a drive (from Missoula) why not hit up the B'root or Lolo?
