First Ascent of Whistle Pigs at Rock Springs Buttress
 

Whistle Pigs (5.11a/b) is a classic, single-pitch (90-foot) sport route that Toby Stegman and Wesley Gooch established at Rock Springs Buttress in Jackson, Wyoming. The route lies on the far right end of buttress, down the hill a little ways from the giant chockstone of Swordfish Lipstick and Birthday Suit. It’s the last section of gold rock before the cliff becomes broken and split by gullies. Look for a line of bolts and a small placard.
