We went to blackleaf the other day. We thought we were climbing the route called "climbing 101"...But im not sure anymore. The route is supposed to be a 3 pitch 5.6, But once we started the 4th pitch, we werent really sure about what we were climbing anymore. And when we got to the 5th pitch...well the weather kicked in during the 4th, and we were cold and shit, so we finished the 4th, debated finishing the next, possibly next 2 pitches, and rapped down. But yeah. does anybody know what route im talking about. The 4th pitch was probably around a 5.6-5.7. It was a pretty easy climb. We were just doing it to actually climb multi-pitch stuff. Anybody help me out? Thanks.

Im the first one to reply to my own message....lame. yeah, turns out that we were on Climbing 101, but i guess there is another route just off the the left of it that i didnt know existed, and we were doing the top few pitches of that. Yea, we went out there last weekend (oct 16), and it SUCKED. there was fog, couldnt see more then about 30 feet, raining, about 35 degrees. yup. not fun. we also found this cave...went into it a little ways, but there was 3 of us, and we only had one headlamp so the going was really slow. we got to a part where it would have been impossible to go any further with just the one headlamp, so we turned back. Anybody know what im talking about?

the weather in this place can totally suck.... I believe the cave in question doesn't go anywhere it closes up a little further in.
Cheers
