Straw Man
Fun, positive holds all the way up. I smiled more and more as I climbed up into the sun to start the day!

China Man
Pumpy climbing low to a full shake just above mid-height. After resting, clip a couple more bolts, get pumped again, and clip the chains from a nice finishing jug!

Red Point ascent by:

I liked this one quite a bit. I thought this one had a move harder than any on pump-o but with a couple good rests thrown in the mix. Hard to see the holds going over the final bulge when the sun is shining in your eyes. Good route!!

Pump-O-Rama
I agree that it's super pumpy initially, but once I knew where to go it wasn't all too pumpy. This route is interesting in that there really aren't any super "hard" moves, but it's still a good challenge to put it all together.

Road Kill
Tricky 3rd clip. To clip low off the crimp, or to try and zip past and clip near your waist off a better hold... I clipped from low and then barely made the move higher. Fun, thin move between the third and fourth bolts. Nice climb!

Panic
Interesting route. Seems like it's going to be easy at first, but it takes alot of tension to move and make your feet stick. I liked it!

Ouch
Fun moves coming around the corner. Standing on a sloping ramp without my foot slipping was the crux for me.

Great moves! I agree that clipping the fourth bolt is the toughest part of the route.

Fun climb on the backside. Good way to get to the top of the feature if you're looking to do either of the two fun routes above.

Get on it
Worth doing if you take the time to get on top of the block. This and Holier Than Thou make a worthwhile excursion from the ground. Both routes can be belayed from a safe, unexposed position.
