4 out of 5 stars Edge of time

Great aesthetic climb. It's rated R, but I don't see why. It's protected well enough. I was surprised by how hard the beginning was, and fell once before redpointing

4 out of 5 stars Lean years

Fell twice on the first move, that thing is hard! After that it eases up but is still very difficult. Definitely 11+. Great climb though.

3 out of 5 stars 5.9 route

Fun, because it follows a weird groove in the bottom. At the top, you have to traverse right like ten feet to get to the anchors, which is weird and makes it hard to clean. I climbed it in the rain.

3 out of 5 stars Wisconsin beef

Pretty good, tricky steeper part near the top. Kinda forgettable compared to some of the other routes around.

5 out of 5 stars Meat is murder

Kinda like Baba Cool only harder, but just as good. I climbed it really really slowly, its hard to trust those crystals.

5 out of 5 stars Baba Cool

Beautiful 70' line that follows a path of crystals up a blank face. It was a different kind of a climb for me, it's hard to tell if the holds are good until you touch them. View is awesome if you top it out.

This was my second ever trad climb. It was a real cool crack, easier than 5.9 though. Plenty of good stances to place gear from

2 out of 5 stars The go between

This route is okay. The roof is really chossy, and not that fun. But there is a sit down rest there, that's pretty sweet. 2nd try

Everybody knows this route kicks ass. It took me like 8 tries, but I finally got it today.
