	Ben Gilkison Ben Gilkison Written in Stone (7a) Unknown Sector	Written in Stone (7a) Unknown Sector	8 pitches. Wow!-- a great new route on a gorgeous chunk of the Chief. Small complaint--the first bolt on the 11b pitch and the first bolt on the 11d pitch are not clip able from the obvious stance for people of my stature 5' without risking serious injury. Fortunately, I had a tall partner who was able to get the first bolts clipped so I could get on with the enjoyable climbing. Both these bolts were about 9" out of reach. Climbing still would have been safe with a lower placement, and accessible to all. End of rant. The final pitch was a real gem and I ran out of small gear in the final section and was so about to come off when I barely latched the a sizable hold at the lip. Hats off to a wonderful adventure with a good partner.	22 Aug 2016
