Russ's brother Stefan (sp?) was a Bozeman resident as recently as a few years ago. I don't know if he's still around but you might be able to get contact info through him...

Where on the tower is the route?

Good Luck-

Bryan

finally did it...
a traverse to an expando flake into a couple bat hooks leading to a buttonhead and then 5 or 6 more bat hooks to the top...a little nerve racking towards the top, but bathooking feels pretty secure. possible ground fall from the top. id guess A3+, but im pretty green when it comes to aid. any ideas?
