Ascent Notes for: Learning to Crawl - 5.12c Average Rating : 4.29/5

Very sustained route with virtually no rests, although some take a rest at the large stalactite after the first 10ft of climbing even though it's not necessary. Crux up high (gaining 5th bolt) is a pump-crux, and would probably go as easy as 5.11b if it weren't for the forearm fatigue. Get on it! I'd recommend stick clipping the second bolt - not because of the fall potential, but for your rope. The rope drag would make any big fall at the top crux feel very static.

haha this is a great route with everything in it! beta intensive and will give you a pump. Always tried this route at the end of the day but finally decided to put some work into earlier and it went down after a couple tries. Pulled through the route quick to avoid fatigue.

cannot believe i've been passing on this one for so long.

two hangs on second run.

This is the hardest send I have to date and it was a long time coming. I lost count how many times I tried this but somewhere around 10-15 tries. I finally got it after watching Cavason cruise it and after borrowing some beta from him. What can I say that people don't already know. It's a classic route, almost always has folks on it and will give you a great pump. It's short and powerful and having good beta is everything. Really is an awesome climb.

This route has the whole package, slopers, crimps and jugs. Its a fun climb and is intense in a good way.
