Ascent Notes for: Opiate For the People - 5.12a Average Rating : 4.00/5

Great line and its variants from the other routes on the wall make it a special line.

this thing took me way to many tries, lol

Another classic. Cool movement on this one

I really enjoyed working this route. Super fun and enjoyable thoughtful foot work

steep jugs to thin traversing makes for a route with lots of personality

weird moves up high

amazing route with character unlike any on the wall

Probably my favorite 12 at the main wall.

After a side injury and some draw thieves put a couple routes I wanted to work on the sideline, I set a goal to climb a six-pack of 'hard' routes in one session. Today went well. I redpointed 'Belly Rubber' (12b), 'Naked Man' (12a), '21-run' (13a), 'Dump Truck' (12c), 'Being Inferior' (12a), and 'Opiate' (12a) in that order. No falls, no hangs. :) Then I still had to clean some draws off Belly Rubber...I was tired. So I got 7 pitches of 12+ climbing.
The best part though was hanging out with friends in the sunshine. :)

Marty put this line up with Overhangus and did a little cleaning. That finished out the Main Wall for routes. Two great additions!
