4 out of 5 stars Classic RRG 10

The stereotypical mess of pockets and chalk on a steep face. Interesting the whole way. Expect to wait in line for this one.

3 out of 5 stars Not bad

Probably a good warmup for the other routes here.

3 out of 5 stars Interesting start

Screwed up the start a couple of times before I got it right. Once you figure that out the rest is easy.

4 out of 5 stars Not at all what I expected

Thought the roof would be the crux, but for tall people it's actually very easy. It's a good climb, but for 5.9 I think Pogue Ethics is more fun.

4 out of 5 stars Keeps your attention

Thought this one was going to be easier. As long as you keep your balance and your head you'll do just fine.

3 out of 5 stars Make sure it's dry

We'd had some rain, so the crack was wet when we climbed it. Kinda hurt, and I slid off the last hard move at the top of the crack. D'oh! Probably deserves a 5.7+, as it is pretty burly through the top half.

5 out of 5 stars Super-awesome fun time

In terms of fun, this is probably one of the best 5.9 climbs I've done at the Red. Most of the climbing is below 5.9, but there's plenty of steepness and movement to keep the heart thumping! A must-do route.

2 out of 5 stars Awkward warm-up

Climbed this as our warm-up for the day. Awkward, and harder than it looks. A couple of interesting moves, but not that much fun overall.

3 out of 5 stars Um, yeah

Toproped it because I was skeptical about getting gear on the top half. Felt more like a 5.7 to me.

3 out of 5 stars Harder than it looks

Thought this one was going to be soft, but the grade is accurate. Nice climb, too bad it isn't longer.
