Squaw Bay - Cream and Suga is right of Poky Kitty

After seeing this nice line on the approach and exit of a Labour Day Squaw Bay climb, a closer look indicated bolts on top and a red piton in the crack of the lower portion of the climb. That had me wondering...

So I went back to my 2003 notes and found the following from Dave Benton's hand drawn topos of the area and new climbs.



He indicates where the new route Cream and Suga is and below on the topo indicates both the piton and bolts on top.



If you take his topo and match it with these photos that I took, I am pretty sure that these are the same routes.



This is the route framed by the trees on the approach boulders.



This is a look up at the start from the base of the climb.
