4 out of 5 stars Redpoint

Took me three tries. First time up was just to get a feeling for how to move from the second to third bolt, and had a hairy time of it. Second time up I got to the anchors. Third time up I sent it...though not without a bit of a rest in the middle while I tried to remember the moves to get above the third bolt.

Flash Flash ascent by: chipacles on 2009-06-14 (View Climbing Log)

4 out of 5 stars Flash!

My first 11b flash. I watched a friend of mine climb it, and saw how he negotiated the crux, as well as a few other sort of sketchy parts, then I sent it on my first try. Damn happy. Especially as it was hot, and conditions weren't at their best.

5 out of 5 stars Second try

I was ecstatic to redpoint this on my second try. It's a beautiful line, a lot of fun. The crux is a bit scary, but not too bad, and a big thrill when you get it.

Awesome.

4 out of 5 stars Flash

Not too difficult, and for me much less scary than Shayou, across the valley. Nice, nice, nice view from the top.

4 out of 5 stars Redpoint

A fun move, sort of a boulder move, to start you off (after the scamble up). From there, the moves aren't so hard, but require balance. A fun little route.

4 out of 5 stars Finally!

After what must have been at least 10 tries, probably more like 15, I finally understood the moves needed to get over the crux.

Instead of using two slopers and trying to reach the hole with my right, I change my right hand to a side crimp, layback a bit to the right, match hands, then reach the hole with my right hand.

4 out of 5 stars Redpoint

I made it halfway up this route, just to the crux, then fell, my only fall of the day. I finished it out, rested, then went back for the red point. Fun climbing.

4 out of 5 stars Flash!

Although this wasn't a really tough route, I had a bit of a hard time at the crux, which I'd arrogantly thought would be easy...but I discovered upon reaching it that I understood the hand movements but not the feet, and so took quite a while to figure it out. A nice climb, though.

3 out of 5 stars Onsight

Not a fun route, really, but good warm up. As my first route of the day, my arms were pretty pumped when I finished it.

Flash Flash ascent by: chipacles on 2009-04-19 (View Climbing Log)

4 out of 5 stars Flash!

My last climb of the day, I was pretty damn happy to flash this route, which some of my friends thought was harder than the 11a "Spring" right next to it. For me, as I didn't need to jump but could make the move with my longer reach, it wasn't so bad.
