Snott Girlz

Snott Girlz.

We knew that day three weather was shaping up to be the only dry one. Shirley and I got up early for our special climb only to find four climbers who were even more determined…oh well. We ended up climbing the beautiful Snott Girlz line (7-pitch, 5.10+) later that day while Eric and Lucie did the next door Treasure Of The Sierra Madre. Spectacular climbing and a much easier 10+ than Agua…or maybe it was the crack climbing part or perhaps the sunshine? One final home-cooked dinner followed by another very rainy morning.

Snott Girlz

Leading the BEAUTIFUL pitch 1 of Snott Girlz (5.10+). This route had the best climbing of all the routes from the road trip and became our new favorite in EPC (taking the cake away from Pancho Villa…).

Leading pitch 3 of Snott Girlz. Went a bit too far left on this pitch and ended up pulling off a large loose rock (Dec. 2013).

Starting the 7th and final pitch of Snott Girlz. The climbing remained super fun from start to finish. Can’t recommend this route enough (Dec. 2013).

Mota Wall

The Mota Wall. This was the first (and last) sunny day at EPC after a long spell of shitty weather. As a result, place was going off with climbers. The hawk eyed observer will spot Eric and Lucie rapping down the Treasure Of The Sierra Madre (Dec. 2013).
