3 out of 5 stars SWEEEEET!!!!!!

it was our first trip to Devils Glen and we arrived on a snow storm to the crag and there was already 5 inch of snow on the ground , the trees, and the top of the lines, it was october 31, and arriving from Toronto it was like grounding to another planet but we didn't care having been climbing for a full winter 3 days a week at Mt. Nemo it has pay off and put some confidence on our harnesses. So we went for the prize, One of the Finest 5.8 pieces of Ontario, ' The Nut Cracker ' a route that follow a beautiful corner crack that curves in to an overhanging crux, my belayer was a bit concerned about the conditions snow was still falling and the line was a bit wet, but to my these were especial conditions, knowing that the first ascenders were hard bold scarpodog climbers that stay on the rock despite of the weather , inspire me. So I went for the Onsight ascent scarpodog style, there under the snow on the wet I juiced every single lieback on de crux enjoying every single smear getting in communion with the elements going trough the fear that I may slip on the wet , but without hesitation on my moves, I toped out with a spidery sensation all over my body to a 6 inch of snow were I start to play on it like a good SCARPODOG. One of the best climbing days of the year .

2 out of 5 stars oh my! oh My! ....

these one could be a test piece of the area the grade is sustained all the way up with hard tricky moves the pitons are rotten, an the bolts very questionable if you try to go on trd style it would be an X rated go. siiiiik!

2 out of 5 stars =0

one of my earliest ascents at Nemo, we were still learning how to place pro on the lead and we did not trust any of our pieces we used the old capital rule of the leader must NOT fall, when I arrived to the overhang, I was only 3 or 4 ft out from my last piece, and start to get so scared looking around at the exposure, and so it happens. I asked my self : WATH A F...CK AM I DOING HERE!!
