got it!

once you get the sequence dialed, it's not bad--and I am not a strong boulderer!

stout!

bring a #4 for the opening moves, and crack technique for the upper bit. If you are a crack climber it will feel 5.7. If you are from the east coast and are climbing this because it's the only thing in the part that is 5.7...then it will feel like 5.9+. Keep looking to the sides and behind you for backsteps and stems. it's all there!

dirty down low, but good

the approach--both the 1st pitch and the approach from the road suck! but the second pitch is great-little bit of wide stuff to keep you focused and a lot of 2s and tight 3s!

first big wall

climbed it in a day with Rob-- awesome climb, led 4 pitches--finish is heads up on a 5.8 slab. a green alien allowed me to move up and right and aid the last move to the chains (watch rope drag--you think you are home free before this slab and when you realize whats happening you scramble for placements which may work against you, drag-wise!)

crowded!

and with good reason. you can't go wrong on this route. that said, there were several sections that were runout (we didnt take the "main" route since it was jammed up, so we just kind of mosy-ed around where we needed to. come solid on 5.7 terrain and move fast. brilliant route with a fun summit. the descent was not bad at all.
