3 out of 5 stars Standard Horst

Tricky going past the 2nd bolt. Top is easy if you are tall.

4 out of 5 stars Short and sweet

Nice climb. More sustained than Year of the Psychobitch, but good holds the whole way. RP 2nd try.

4 out of 5 stars Bouldery Start

Short and sweet! The low boulder problem makes the rest of it feel harder than it is.

4 out of 5 stars Bouldery Start

First bolt is pretty manky - stick clip the second bolt. Bouldery moves around/under arete pulls to techy face/slab finish.

5 out of 5 stars 10a?!

Woof! that was rough. Hard line, but sweet. Not sure what the grade is as I'm no crack master, but it sure as hell isn't a 10a...

3 out of 5 stars sketchy

A big plus on that 5.8! Thin and poorly protected down low to a runout finish! the bolted anchors are nice though! Also, screw the guidebook - stay right after the first ledge.

5 out of 5 stars Classic

Nice variety of moves from the flat edged slopers down low to featured finish. Worth going back to clean up...

3 out of 5 stars Cool roof, lame finish

OS up to last bolt. Dyno to the finish? Missed it, oh well, no need to clean it up. Overall, good intro to roof climbing but nothing special.

4 out of 5 stars Nice!

A little trickier than you first expect. Take some small gear for the lower middle.

4 out of 5 stars that crack!

Thin moves off the ground to a splitter crack, wish it were longer!
