3 out of 5 stars worth doing if you're up there.

short crimpy crux at the second bolt makes it "5.10" but only barely.

2 out of 5 stars Arctic Breeze

Fittingly named, climbed it during very high winds. Very easy for the grade, felt like 5.7+. Tightly bolted, but a fall above a bolt on easier terrain could hurt.

3 out of 5 stars Easy

This route is more like 5.9 but was still a fun route with huge dikes.

1 out of 5 stars What a dopey route.

Why was this bolted? It was like 5.8 at the crux, and 5.6 everywhere else.
