Big Bro's Watchin' (AKA: Luebben Memorial Route) 5.11- R, Creek Side, Clear Creek Canyon, Colorado

Creek Side is a sorely neglected area of Clear Creek Canyon, and there's little wonder as to why. It's hard to get to, the rock is really crappy in places, and it's in the shade almost all the time. Climbed this with Ryan. We thought we were on Playing Hooky (5.8), but ended up on this much tougher route instead. We got really suspicious when some of the problems went beyond the pale. We didn't do the last two pitches- ran out of time. They would have been tough.
