SPRGE Saturday Summersville Falling & Wincetering (Adv. Sport Climbing)

OVERVIEW

Greetings,
I am enthralled to see that SPRGE is more than just an urban legend, it is here at last. Please, if you would join me and Mr. Mahtin on a splendid day at Summersville Lake climbing some OH SO LOVELY sandstone. We have an agenda as well, if you are interested. First, we go to Orange Oswald and warm up on some semi-classic 5.10s. Then, we try Satisfaction Guaranteed (5.11a/b), which is supposed to be true to it’s name. Finally, we finish either at Pirates Cove or Long Wall trying either Mutiny (5.11c, awesome name, awesome arete), Under the Milky Way (5.11d: CLASSIC), Maximum Overdrive (5.11c), or Flirting with E (5.11d). This agenda can easily change, but we’re looking to send/try to send some classic routes in the 5.11 range at the end of the day. The reason why we want to climb here is because this lake floods in the summer and all the climbs go underwater, so this is the last time for a while that we’ll be able to try them on a rope instead of DWS!

Note – There is a glitch on the website and the start and end times listed may be incorrect. We will be leaving the campsite around 9 am and will be arrive back to the campsite after climbing around 6pm.
