5 out of 5 stars Fun

Some of the plates on the big runout can be protected so-so with thin long slings. The moves though are 5.7, it's all there if you take take your time and you certainly can find some good rest stops if you need them. On the low part of the route, don't go to the tree to the right as some people have due to misreading the route in the Falcon guide--stay in the crack.

4 out of 5 stars Where's that Grigri?

Again, some variations make up for the short route. Arete, right side, or straight up the middle

5 out of 5 stars Start at the bottom!

We started at the very bottom and it was fairly easy routefinding with no move harder than 5.7 and some fun climbing! We did it in 7 pitches with a 60m rope. The descent had some loose 4th class, but was fairly easy.

4 out of 5 stars Stiff

This year I've climbed or reclimbed Bear's Reach, Surrealistic, Corrugation, Hogwild, Harvey Right, and if Just Acquaintances is 5.6, those are 5.6 or 5.5. ie, There were maybe 2 moves on Acquaintances that were technically harder than anything on Corrugation. That said, a fun, steep, route, but still a little dirty.

5 out of 5 stars Great climb

Did it 20 years ago and finally got back to do it again. I forgot how airy the 2nd pitch is out on that arete. No way to protect the chimney moves well and if you did, the rope drag would be horrible. Just move thru and clip that old piton or place a nut just below it after you move around the corner. Above the next little roof, use a directional quickdraw in the crack to the right to keep the rope out of the pincher crack or you may be sorry(got my rope stuck once)!
