Red Point ascent by:
Both pitches are nice.
A warning to the aspiring 5.9 leader: Pitch 1 (5.9) protects well, but a few of the critical placements are pretty pumpy. Pitch 2 (5.6) is great climbing and exposure, not dirty, some lichen, but it doesn't get in the way.

Toxic Shock
I did not find this one easy to protect and therefore wasn't very enjoyable for me.

Very aestethic
Great way to start Dopey. Not too hard and very easy to protect. Nice crack climbing.

Pumpy little fingercrack
A funky fingercrack that is hard to protect at one section until you use your imagination. Good footholds combined with some slopey hands make for a decent pump on the first half of the crux pitch.
