5 out of 5 stars Perfect Jams

AMAZING JAMMING!! The jams could not possibly be more perfect. Beta spoiler: you only need #2's and 3's the whole way. And don't let the dihedral nature of this route fool you, it is straight in splitter crack technique that will get you up this thing.

4 out of 5 stars two move wonder

Figure the feet out and hold on to small crimps with a V2 dynamic move to finish. The whole problem is like 8 moves making for a very good first V6

4 out of 5 stars To the right

If you follow the crack up and move over left at the last bolt this is a 10d/11a (youre always within arms reach of the bolts). Its rated at 11b to the right (12a? to the left) in the Chatt Steel book, but I think that's a bit overrated. Super fun though!

4 out of 5 stars Beautiful line

Super fun climbing to a very stressful position for protection. Either place a piece on top of the flake and run it out and don't think twice or place a piece mid crux and move quickly. Easy for the grade if you skip pro hard if not.

4 out of 5 stars Great first 5.9 trad lead

Very obvious line with great pro the whole way. I've only led a few 5.9 trade leads but compared to routes like golden locks (5.9) at t wall or ox stone crack (5.8+) at Leda this is super chill. Great fun though.

3 out of 5 stars Lol

This route kinda sucks...but I think that's why I liked it:) The pro is weird the first 2/3 of the route. There are really chossy flakes that you have to avoid placing gear on top of, so you have to go really deep in this dingy crack. Then comes the offwidth. Yeah, do it!! lol it hurts and is pebbly. You only need one big piece for the offwidth (#6 Camalot) then a #1 slots really nicely right above that. Then comes the UNBELIEVABLE rope drag from the 35' traverse to the Bombs Bursting anchors (full of debris and huge rocks). Have fun:)

3 out of 5 stars Hard

This was incredibly difficult at the bottom liebacking section. There is good pro to start with, then very difficult pro and stances in the liebacking section, unless your a bit taller than me. This was intimidating because it would have most likely been a groundfall if I had runout that difficult piece. Super fun after that though. I think this is a 5.9.

5 out of 5 stars Chill 11a

Super fun, perfect "C shaped" moves on perfect, albeit sometimes small, holds. Catch the rests and this is an easy 11a. Absolutely perfect climb.

5 out of 5 stars My favorite sport climb of all time!!

WOW!!!! This thing has it all!! Unbelievable overhung plate pulling at the bottom. A sit down rest at a HUGE hueco. Then a technical face climb on the inside of an arete that you can't see your last pro from...to a throw around the arete that results in a HUGE SAFE whip if you don't stick it, to a scary clip that is safe if you fall try to clip it (crux), to a safe runout on buckets to top. Seriously, this is one of the best scariest (albeit safe) climbs I've ever done in my 6 years of climbing all over the world. DO IT!!
