4 out of 5 stars Super Fun

Took me a few tries to work out the crux mini-roof, but luckily there's a nice standing rest from which to work on it, so sent it first go on lead (after TR'ing in the past). Loved, loved, loved the slab at the top! Delicate, balancy, thought-provoking, and delightful.

4 out of 5 stars Yes, perplexing

Took me a bit to figure out the crux; not what I expected at all. End of day, no time to redpoint on Saturday, went back Monday.

Flash Flash ascent by: delphyne on 2009-11-07 (View Climbing Log)

4 out of 5 stars Start was easier than it looked

And I didn't go too far right either! I'm not sure this is a 10c, even with the crimpy start. Above the first bolt it's no harder than 5.9 at most.

2 out of 5 stars one more to go

Now I only have one more 5.8 and below to climb at the Red. End of a rainy day, climb was mostly dry but slick at the bottom; started in the crack to the left.

3 out of 5 stars good rainy day destination

Pumped me out as a warmup, no problem at all on 2nd try, should have led it. Awful approach, especially when muddy.

3 out of 5 stars finally clean

I've been trying for years to climb this clean on TR, and I finally had the endurance for the first half. Very hard for a 10a.

3 out of 5 stars One-move wonder

Bouldery start, then one 5.10a move, leading to a finish that is probably 5.8. Outstanding view in the fall!

4 out of 5 stars bi-polar climb

Crimpy slab to pockety face. It's all there though. A couple years ago I thought it was pumpy as hell; I must have been doing it wrong!
