4 out of 5 stars Back on the street

Spent another great day on McKinley.
Easy Street made for a fun fist multi-pitch for some of the climbers. From the top of Pitch-2 climbing the overhang on Wipeout (.9-.10a) made for a very fun finish rather than taking the gully to the right. Great view of Diamond Peak with snow from the top.

5 out of 5 stars very fun

Not sure how this route ended up getting an .11b rating on rockclimbing.com. The guide only has the hardest move rated as .10c. This was a very fun route. I like the comment "not very sporty". The other fun route on this wall was Maltese Falcon. I'm not sure I'd lable either as a sport route, maybe "adventure climbs" would be more appropriate.

4 out of 5 stars Fun finish to White Rabbit

Fun crack with a beatiful view if you take the time to look around. We only had a few cams with us or we would have tried the Spiritual Journey crack on the left side of the hourglass. Maybe next time. Fun area.

4 out of 5 stars Great day at Fantasy Island

Beautiful weather. Gate was open so we were able to drive to the top and rap down to the base. White Rabbit was a pleasure as was Through the Looking Glass, Dot to Dot, Space Cow Boy, Rocket Man, Cosmos, and Outer Limit. UCC was also up there with a climbing class. Plenty of room for all. A great day with a great view. Next time I plan to bring more gear and do Spiritual Journey.

5 out of 5 stars fun

First two pitches very fun, last pitch has a great view. It was fun watching peregrine flying in the area while we climbed.

3 out of 5 stars fun short route

Not the slab friction I've come to expect at the Callahans. This route has some laybacks and other moves that keep you thinking. It is also not a route that stands out when you first approach the rock. My wife saw it after we rappelled off and wanted to try. A forgotten gems that could use a brushup.
