Ascent Notes for: Sea of Holes - 5.7 Average Rating : 4.10/5

no one on the slabs but me and my partner with blue-bird skies

This climb seemed overrated. The first two pitches had nothing to them (including protection!) and the last two, while in a nice spot, involved very straightforward liebacking and slab moves. Kind of fun, but not an all-time classic like the guide says (though it was written by the first ascensionist)

great climbing. on the last pitch i didn't go far enough right. instead i headed accidentally towards the bolt i saw slightly to the left above the overlap. turns out that was the the end of the Squirting Dog (5.9). tricky move to pull the overlap. seemed more like a 5.10, or maybe it was the heat and chalk in my eye. = )

Took follow

Amanda and I hit Sea of Holes for a quick ascent on a hot day. We soloed the 5.2 first pitch, and then cruised the next three. Amanda pulled the 5.8 finish.

First day at Whitehorse on a climbing trip. Good start.

Many pockets made me scatch my head as to how they got there.
Ever increasing difficulty, with the best move left to the end.
We stayed higher in the corner placed good gear and climbed an overlap with large hand holds and a comiting rockover to a sinker pocket.

With Bob Clark- Took the standard route over to the left. The bulge was very wet.

This was a pretty boring route except for the last pitch or two. The last pitch is a good intro to slab climbing and it was a good route for my first multipitch. A little difficult to find where it starts though. Last pitch was the crux I think.

Can you say RUNOUT?!
