Stiff
Tough for the grade IMO. Sent second try today, probably been on it 3 times before today so I guess that's five tries overall. Certainly not a gimme, I was shouting towards the end.

The Ghost of Johnny Reimers
Sent this one today. One of my longer projects at 10 tries and it felt good to overcome the heady runout - I lost the fear around #7.
Hardest part for me is getting off the ledge by bolt 2 - it's very awkward. Route is bolted by a tall man - at 5'3" I can't hang a draw on bolt 3 and can barely clip it from the ledge, but I either hang on the first bolt and stick clip it or climb Mossatopia and hang the draws on the way down.
Key for me was getting my beta down and becoming very efficient in foot placement and body positioning. The top stopped being scary after I got my beta down. Neat movement on this crimpy route. Definitely need to get on this one again.

tough crux
there is a right side variation at the last bolt instead of going left of the last bolt.
i honestly have a harder time getting off the ledge at bolt 2.
stout climb. not 12a.

Thin and On you
This is a great climb! This is one of my favorite Austin climbs. It is thin through the entire middle section and is on you. The clip at the perma is committing and feels sketch, but it's not over there...you have to move through that part, get the great pocket, clip the last bolt and then you are on to decent holds..but you have to fight the pump and the mental game of the run out to the chains!
