Ascent Notes for: Hangman - 5.10a Average Rating : 3.67/5

A nice TR route.

good TR route

The start is tricky if your short after that it evens out

.

Fun! A little hard for the grade if you are short...

Like everyone else said, the first move or two is the crux. Past that is really great actually. Great practice route.

This climb is loads of fun. The first move is definitely the crux (5.10a) but after that the rest of the route is more 5.9+ish. A few runouts but if you are comfortable climbing it these shouldn't be a problem. One of my favorite routes at the gorge.

first move is the crux, need rh pinch strength, will lead next time since there are new bolts

I've tried this route probably about 15 times and finally built up enough hand strength and technique to get it on my first try today. Next project is Rock On (5.10b). Tried that one about ten times the same day I first tried Hangman. Wish me luck!
