Ascent Notes for: Ralph and Bob's - 5.7 Average Rating : 3.43/5

Everything from thin fingers to offwidth on this route. Have your belayer wear a helmet as sand and loose rock can fall off the first belay ledge. Pulling the bulge felt harder the 5.7 to me, but that may have been due to the hot & humid conditions. If this line cleans up it will be a classic.

This seemed a bit tough for the grade; our leader was doing some crazy splits/stemming at the start getting his first couple pieces in. Meandering up through the chimneyish section was surprising and a bit challenging - the sand didn't help! We stopped before the really dirty off-width continuation / p2. I'd recommend what we did for sure.

Dirty, needed a little housekeeping to keep it enjoyable.

Fun, if you're a masochist...

yes, dirty, so wear your helmet if you're belaying. we did it in one pitch, 3 people and 2 ropes. I really liked this climb though, with all sorts of interesting problems and offwidths along the way

Would be better if more people climbed it, kinda dirty as it was
