Sam, Manfred and I took our 2019 maiden voyage to Gallatin Canyon for a gally rally. Our goal was to climb only routes we have never climbed before. We started at the BO buttress and climbed a 5.6 trad route called Constitution Crack. We moved up the hill and climbed a long 5.8 sport route. Then the rain started. It didnt look like the rain was going to stop so we decided to just hike around and explore. An hour of exploring later we were standing at the base of the Watchtower looking at dry rock. Sam wanted to climb the first pitch of the Standard route 5.5 trad so we geared up and got one more climb in. We didnt climb anything very hard but Sam got to plug some gear on lead and I found some routes to develop. Manfred got dirty.
