5 out of 5 stars big boss man

although it has one sequence much harder than anything on boys in the hood, this one seemed like an easier route to send. huge holds, one hard crux, super steep and SO FUN! Thought it felt like it was between 12a and 12b but closer to 12a. don't know why the book calls this the same grade as straight out of madras.

5 out of 5 stars Get your .12 bagged

Heard a rumor in 02 about Easy's being the place to go if you want a .12 under your belt. Followed up on the advice and there you go. To this day my only .12 lol, Angular Motion in P-towns the closest to my second .12.

5 out of 5 stars back to back

Had to clean the route after one of our crew took a big whipper cuz he skipped the last clip. Everyone else was done climbing and I thought I'd give it another go. It felt better 2nd time w/out having to hang draws and knowing what the holds feel like.

5 out of 5 stars Taking it to the Big Boss Man

The rock was sooooo cold in the shade. It was great to see most all the holds from the ground and spec out the moves. Great route!
