Tieton River: Royal Columns

Had 3 climbers bail at the last minute, so we were a party of 5. Got a very early start. The Oak Creek Wildlife Refuge lot was full of RVs and horse trailers, not sure what was going on there. Parked on the road and were amazed to climb all day without seeing another climber. It was a Sunday, this may be the ticket, not sure. Climbed some new, to me, routes including 'Mush Maker' (5.7) which is a highly recommended hand crack. Great day!
