Blackdog Butch

Similar to its neighbors, it has nuanced and somewhat hidden holds. Big difference being that this route has a boulder problem in addition to more sustained climbing.  Low in difficulty for the grade.

Named after my childhood dog, once named the second ugliest in Patrick county.

This route was bolted solely for the purpose of allowing for the first ascent, and the first ascent information is posted here solely to document the history of the first ascent. No person should read this posting with the assumption that this route or the fixed gear left behind is safe in any way or otherwise appropriate to allow for safe subsequent ascents. Climbing is dangerous and should only be done with the appropriate training and risk management practices that include providing for the climber’'s own safety. Attempting to climb this route as described above or by any other means or methods could result in injury or death.

Leftmost route on the top tier.
