Onsight ascent by:
Finally!
I've had this route on the radar for years but just never got around to it. I'm glad I waited, since it's a demanding lead. I had a blast on it, and I think it should have more than 2 stars in the guidebook.

Good line and worth the hike
Hard and pumpy. Finger/hands/liebacking to a fun finish. Don't miss this one!

Hang Dog ascent by:
Hard, but good.
This route starts as unique choss climbing, and improves all the way to the top. The first pitch could be skipped. It's crumbly potato chips, and you could in theory rap in from the top. I think that the "12a" on the first pitch probably lost some holds and is now significantly harder since I onsighted the rest of the climb but couldn't even pull the move on TR.

Red Point ascent by:
Pink Point
This is the first time I've ever pink pointed a trad route. AC is just unreal for the variety of moves the climb requires. Highly recommended for anyone who can climb the grade. I hope to get back out there for a proper redpoint in the future.

Finally!
I've wanted to redpoint this route for years, but just never made it over there. Truly amazing climbing and moves with many beautiful liebacking moves on a gently overhung featured face

Finally!
This boulder problem took quite a few trips up the hill, and was definitely a learning experience, but I finally sent it! Next up: Boulder 13!!! Time to cut a trail....

2nd try
Entertaining route, like most at the quarry, but nothing stands out about it. It's fun and long and pumpy though! Give it a go! It's possibly easy for the grade (12b?) but I'm not sure how well I'm climbing at the moment so I won't downgrade it.

Fun route.
The last hold/holds broke off. The hardest move of the route is now a powerful heelhook past the last bolt reaching to small nearly invisible handholds. I think the route would have been easy for the grade if it weren't for this. Now I feel that it's 12c.

One of the best aretes anywhere...
Beautiful line, I'm glad I managed to onsight it. Did it as one long pitch. Bring a Metolius #1 TCU to protect the moves off the boulder.
