Top Rope ascent by:
good climbing and a very hard crux.
A fun route, but I think a fair bit harder than To Be.

Onsight ascent by:
Definitely a double cruxer
I thought it was all over when I made the high step to get to the roof. Boy was I wrong. I only had a tiny nut in the corner when I thrashed through the upper crux and almost fell. Yeesh. Good route because you can toprope the Stand if you don't have the motivation to lead it.

Scary lead b.c of the loose block
I got sandbagged into leading this and while it turned out OK, I was not happy at all with having to pull the roof on that huge loose block. Even afterwards that thin seam felt insecure. Good climbing though.

Red Point ascent by:
A superb and sustained 5.10
This climb will keep you thinking all the way up. Definitely not a one move wonder like many gunks 5.10s.

very fun climb
Very happy for my blue alien protecting the crux. I think there was a pin here when I first did it. A classic gunks 5.10

good and sustained route when it is dry
I really wouldn't consider this a "g" protected route, and the lunge at the top for the big jug is pretty darn hard. Fun climbing though, and well worth the toprope after climbing MF.

good route but a short crux
the crux is a big scary if that pin isn't backed up. Crux is short and stout. Well worth doing.

Good route with good gear. Bouldery start
This was a cool route with a very bouldery start that must be the crux. Better gear than I expected. Well worth doing.

The Myers and Freeman 1980 variation is excellent
Very cool 10b roof leads to white rock and a tough corner finish. A lot of fun and better than the original route IMO.

Incredible route, but a real pumper
The first pitch is a good warmup for the fun to come. I had to break it into three pitches and belay in the corner because of rope drag. I guess I screwed up the double ropes at the crux. The roof on pitch 3 is amazing and super pumpy. Plugging in gear blind didn't make me very happy though.
