Ascent Notes for: Table Manners - 5.9 Average Rating : 3.75/5

This route protects really well

little ackward. it's nice using the two cracks. toe jamming can be painful

starting off with linear vertical climbs really allowed me to focus on moving up as opposed to looking for the next placement. getting off to a great start

so many ways to climb this. my buddy chimney-ed his way up and did great i stemmed and jammed and took one fall.

Chimneyed. That. Shit.

The route can be climbed in multiple ways - straight (mostly) hand jam, stem, left hand/fingers in the left parallel crack.

A great 5.9

I almost TR'd this route, but my friend sweet-talked me into leading it -- and I'm glad he did!

I decided to stay in the crack as much as possible and avoid stemming. This certainly upped the ante, but it also made it a more interesting climb. At least, for me.

Never lead a sustained stemming pitch before. So I enjoyed this one. Doubles of small cams are nice.

Also did Sidesiddle as a warm up.

better to try crack alone (no stem)
