Summary

Culls In Space

Shirley finishing up the short but pumpy Culls In Space pitch(5.10c; March 2007).

A day of climbing some obscurities on the west side of Smith Rock in March of 2007. Shirley & I climbed Culls In Space (5.10c) high up on the west slopes of the Smith Rock Group and tried the Doctor Doom (5.9) off-width…Things did not go so well on this one so I bailed off the somewhat scary pitch 2.
