We headed up to Bitty Buttress to the right of the Blob in Boulder Canyon.
Bitty Buttress is 5.9 3 pitches. It’s a steep start with a little tough gear off the deck but on good holds.
Up near the top of the first pitch is a fairly committing slabby move above your last piece.
The belay ledge was awesome for the first pitch.
Anja took the second pitch which was another awesome belay ledge.
I topped out the third pitch which had a the crux move again above the last piece and a little runout on huge 5.8 sport holds. Anja following to the top of the dome.
On the walk off we went right past the Young and the Rackless 5.9 4 sport pitches.
The route was really cruiser.
We did the route in 2 pitches and skipped some bolts because their were just so many for the level of climbing.
At the top we could see a storm rolling and hurried off but being Boulder we could a party just starting the approach to the Blob. I guess if you are a local climbing in the rain just doesn’t scare you.
It was a great day of climbing in Boulder Canyon and my favorite day I’ve had in Boulder Canyon.
