4 out of 5 stars Blackened

Nice line with good rock and fun moves. A tough move surmounting the roof and a few thin face moves are split by good shakes on positive holds. There is definitely a sharp pocket or two in the mix.

5 out of 5 stars Sweet climb!

A friend got her red point on this then let me and my friend hang dog our way up it. Super fun route, tiny & sharp holds with fun sequencing and some seriously powerful moves.

4 out of 5 stars Beware of dried blood

I bled all over this wall as my right ring finger cuticle had been cut from another climb. Watch out for my blood! Took a fall because of a confusing cross over in the cruxy upper section. I was too pumped to down climb to fix my sequence. However I enjoyed the climb a lot, I hope to come back and pick up the redpoint.

Flash Flash ascent by: Crimposaurus on 2007-03-24 (View Climbing Log)

5 out of 5 stars Crackened

One of the first hard routes I have been able to flash at Smith over the two times I have been there. This route made my day and my trip. An easy start gives you a good rest and then boom, all of a sudden your climbing a bolted crack! The crack has some awesome liebacks and a couple of sustained moves but ultimately leads you to a great rest before busting out onto some face climbing with sharp positive pockets. The crux is pretty much the last move off of a shallow pocket to a huge jug. All of the people I have talked to say it is 5.11d, it felt a little easier than some of the .11d's I have been on at Smith but hey I'll take it! A great route that really mixes it up and keeps things interesting.
