Fairview Dome 5.9 Toulumne Meadows, Summer 2000 In the summer of 2000 Greg Tirdel and Brian Biega drove down to Toulumne for the day from Lake Tahoe for some climbing. The weather was great and they arrived at the parking lot of Fairview Dome at around 8:00 am. The two set out to climb the Regular Route of Fairview Dome located on the north west face of the rock. It must have been September because the rock was somewhat warm in the morning.
	It is hard to believe that this is the first and hardest pitch of the climb. This pitch warms you up with some nice smearing and finger-locks to keep the fingers in shape. Right: Greg on the third pitch,enjoying the awesome finger locks and amazing knobs.
Above: Greg on the first pitch of the Regular Route, surprisingly in the sun!
