5 out of 5 stars Shredded Wheat

This line was a lot of fun. Kinda like something you might see on the front of a climbing magazine. 5.11 crack is HARD. Just barely hang-dogged up this.

5 out of 5 stars CLASSIC finger crack

Toproped this one after Jeff led it. Very fun and continuously challenging. Hard to get those feet to stick, but the finger locks are golden.

5 out of 5 stars Definition of classic

Tried for the lead, gonna take a lot of work. If there was a classic crack climb, this would be it. Beautiful fingerlocks going to no feet and finishing off with an incredible view of the lake.
