Ascent Notes for: Osprey - 5.6 Average Rating : 4.17/5

I tried this route on the 23rd of November but had to back down because we underestimated how quickly it got dark. In the process one of my cams got jammed. We where in a rush so I'm sure with a little work you could probably pull it out. If anyone retrieves it please email me at moritzwalther@inbox.lv or pm me. Its a #1 climbx.

JohnG linked P1 and P2 and I took P3. This is probably my favorite climb in the Gap. Challenging moves for 5.6 and I think this would be a solid 7 at the Gunks. 2 cruxes on P2 and some fun moves on P3 makes this a thoughful climb.

The lower of the two pitons at the first anchor was removed by hand.

A great climb, very sustained at the grade.

Great climb on mostly clean rock. Lotta loose stones at the top though. Easy climbing at the beginning but higher up is where the fun is, with some challenging roofs for the 5.6 climber.

Felt very exposed going up this route...lots of balancing. The climbing itself was pretty easy, but really needed to focus for this this one. First time I've ever experienced a hanging belay.

we got a little confused on which way the route went and decided not to continue. first belay ledge had a great view of the sunset/river.

SWEET ROUTE! Deserves all three stars! Pulling around the last corner on P3 out of the shadow and into the sun was like coming out of a cold dark cave into warm sunshine.

Led P1 and P3 today. Brian Z. led P2. Had seconded all or part of this route in 2001 but seniormemoryitis has long set in and really can't tell wtf we did oh-so-longago.

Very cool climb, lots of variation.

Great route, I would recommend it.
I think the crux was on the seond pitch.
