"Im drawn to open country. It's where everything becomes clear, where the world makes the most sense. When I put myself out there, I always return with something new. A friend once told me: The best journeys answer questions that in the beginning, you didn't even think to ask." -(unknown) Hopefully, this blog will always be a work in progress. These posts are by no means all my adventures, just the ones a camera was present for. MUU: Montana Underdog Unit

Ol' Two Tier now climbs to the top (2nd pitches done... mostly)
Sam and I spent 9 hours out at the village cleaning and bolting (where needed) the upper pitch options on Ol' Two Tier. We installed 3 sets of chain anchors creating 4 final pitch options. Sam got to drill and install his first bolt(s). There are two easy sport routes (5.5-5.6 ish)(ran out of hangers to bolt the 2nd sport option), 1 mixed (5.6 ish) and one trad (5.6 ish), all are 30m. I also rapped Schwabby's and added a bolt at 30 meters (from the top) to create a rap station. Our other rap station that we thought would get you on the ground with a 60m rope doesnt; we learned the hard way. I stripped those anchors of their chains and put them up top. This crag is destined to put smiles on climber's faces for a long long time. Bet you wish you knew where it was! Maybe next year...
