Tahquitz and JTree, CA

We climbed Tahquitz rock, and then one boulder problem in JTree before it got too hot.

We climbed <i>Whodunit 5.9</i> on Tahquitz Rock, a five-pitch route of rather sustained difficulty first climbed in 1957. As the story goes, the first ascent party ran across a single piton pounded in a crack high on the route, and posed the question "Whodunit?" as nobody was aware of a prior ascent, and a climb of this magnitude was really something at the time.
