"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

Tombstone StripperClimbed 6 routes in 5 days with Ian from St. George. We did a similar assault in the Rockfellow Dome area last month. Stripper is somewhere between 2 and 3 stars out of 5. Something to do if you are planning on climbing most of the routes in Cochise. The 3rd pitch is the most memorable featuring a cool arch you walk across as well as the best climbing. Like most routes on Sheepshead, it does not require much pro. One of the easiest (less sustained) routes I have climbed on the formation.
