3 out of 5 stars Left of Bedazzled

Shares an anchor but possibly not for long? Hold on tight over the lip. Pumpy little sequence of moves for sure.

3 out of 5 stars Scared the shit outta me.

Smeary feet with a tiny cam protecting you from a boulder will do that though. Otherwise this was a pretty good line. No anchor, but a BD #2 and a #9 or so BD stopper created a good anchor in the crack at the back of the pod at the top.

3 out of 5 stars Fun route.

Mellow climbing past a fixed tango cam. Gain the hand crack and roof (crux) and cut the feet and go for it. Relatively big holds but not so straight forward! The bolts at the top here are ancient but seem solid. Certainly are on the short list to be replaced.

3 out of 5 stars Short but sweet.

Good little start to a stance for gear. Thins a bit toward the top. Nice little route.

3 out of 5 stars I guess it depends.

If you wanted to sit start it at 14d you probably could. Otherwise there is serious ambiguity as to where this route should be climbed. Avoiding playing the "you can use this hold but not that hold" game on this route I think it can be done at 12b/c stemming off the left corner (well within reach from the obvious starting holds). Top out to the right of the last bolts.

3 out of 5 stars Not bad.

May as well if you are doing Twinkie too. Felt stiff but that is likely because I had the sun in my eyes on a low crux. Nice route.
