This is a prequel to the much more exciting story of Wolf Rock. This turned out to be largely a reconnaissance mission. Fritz led me and four other climbers to this great monolith he'd never climbed before but had seen and heard about. We decided to spend a day down there either climbing sport routes or doing a mutli-pitch climb.
None of us had done a lot of multi-pitch climbing but in the car on the way down there, we all decided we'd like to try some out, even if we didn't make it to the summit. We only made it two pitches up the 600 foot face that day, but we had a lot of fun and knew that with better planning, we could make the summit. All this foreshadowed the events of Wolf Rock Round II.
