Ascent Notes for: When Shrimp Learn to Whistle - 5.11a Average Rating : 3.73/5

Had trouble figuring out what to do at the crux. Once I figured out the right beta for me, pulled the crux without a problem.

got to the first anchors and a little past but couldn't get past the roofs.. easy up to the roofs but at the top it has some tough moves. definitely want to try it again

Probably 11c when compared to the rest of the country. Great climb that most only do the first half of.

Arete is fun. The crux--pulling a small roof with a tiny left undercling and tiny right crimp--threw me every time.

I've been on this a couple times and haven't done it cleanly yet, although I've only been to the first set of anchors. The move up the arete via the crimpers is pretty darn hard. Actually, there are two hard moves then you are through the hard bits, at least for this part of the climb. Looking forward to working through it and then trying the roof section. Relatively easy for the rest of the climb, but the crux is harder than others of this grade at Pilot I think.

hard climb for me

Nice

good climb, gets pumpy up top

Gets hard about half way up to small crimpers and then big juggs the rest of the way. Fun route though! Oh, don't be afraid of the tree!
