3 out of 5 stars Straight Forward

Fun problem with the last reach left being a little bit of a stretch. Could be hard for shorter people with a negative ape index.

3 out of 5 stars Balance!

This problem is very footwork oriented. Once both hands matched on the crimp, I released my feet and got them back under me on the rail. Finger intensive on the move. This was a fun problem and didn't seem contrived to me.

2 out of 5 stars Not Bad

Tree slab in general seems a little contrived but this one remained fairly independent and straight forward. A decent little move to hit the mono pocket.

2 out of 5 stars No Hands!

It was a little intimidating allowing myself to hang freely from my feet mainly because I had no spotter and could've hurt myself landing on my head. Calmed myself and got it on the second attempt.

3 out of 5 stars Thin for 5.10a

For some reason this route felt really thin for 5.10a. Precarious foot placements and opposing hands pretty much the whole way up. A very consistent route, but it felt more like 5.10b for me. The runout section between the last bolt and the anchors can be fairly intimidating on lead.

4 out of 5 stars Intimidating Roof

The roof looks harder than it is. There are huge jugs through the roof and the crux is about 20 feet higher up on a thin section, with contemplative moves on sloping holds.

3 out of 5 stars The Roof

Pulling the roof was really the only hard part of this route. It requires some interesting finger jams and a little distorted lay-backing. Fun moderate moves take you the rest of the way to the anchors.

4 out of 5 stars First V5

This is an awesome route with tons of different beta. Well worth it to work the problem and figure out some of your own beta. It helps you to figure out your strengths as a climber. Sent this on my second day of working it, while it was snowing.

Here is a quick video too... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xS4DYg74SJg&feature=youtu.be

3 out of 5 stars Back to Bouldering

It has been a while since I've gone bouldering outside. The Black Hole has some great problems and this is a great warm up for any of the easier ones. Got backwards on the onsight and fell once, then sent it.

1 out of 5 stars Not Coming Back For Round Two...

This route was terrible in my opinion. It started off with good rock, but by the time I got to the top the rock felt like it was going to peel of if I put any weight on it. Not a big fan...
