4 out of 5 stars Varied

All kinds of climbing on this one. Great layback crack to mantle to easy arete. Casual but fun journey

3 out of 5 stars Harder than it looks

The holds are surprisingly tricky and the moves pumpy. Nice climb on the whole

Tough boulder crux; just a few moves. Then nice layback flake crack

4 out of 5 stars Great

Pumpy and high quality. Low crux but pump factors in high up. Direct E2 version is much better.

2 out of 5 stars Surprising at V1

I did this a couple years ago when I started bouldering and I still remember the start as one of the trickiest moves I've done bouldering. Pinch a dime edge and a crystal and smear on steep, slippery rock, then move to a shallow undercling pinch. Maybe V1 with method, but I don't remember this being a warmup.

3 out of 5 stars Descended to reach Hidden Chimney

Not too much pro on last two pitches. Very easy climbing though.

4 out of 5 stars Nice one; first real mixed route

Pretty well-protected but steep and exposed. Wandering, sustained line up the buttress.

4 out of 5 stars Gotta do the direct

In a whiteout with 50 mph winds. Cool little snow ridge up to the dogleg, then a very exposed traverse over and up to Aladdin's Seat. Descended the Couloir.

5 out of 5 stars Way cool. First winter route

Obviously quite easy, but in a spectacular position. Just before Aladdin's Seat, duck right onto the exposed ridge and climb left of the pinnacle. Fantastic.

5 out of 5 stars my back hurts

really nice line and moves. P1 is likely the most strenuous 5.5 (or 6, or 7...) I've ever done. Not hard, but every move is the crux. Beautiful flake on P3. Really great.
