5th Bolt Faith

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0800

Rating: 4 - I knew where the bolt was but didn't trust myself to get there. Took a couple falls going for 5th bolt, redpoint on 2nd try. Not a single move on this climb is harder than the bottom of Plate Tectonics.

Gettin' Lucky In Kentucky

Rating: 4 - I enjoyed it, the moves to the anchors were nifty. However, I'm not sure why this is a 5* climb. Not to say it wasn't good, but not necessarily one of the absolute best 10's at the Red. 5th Bolt Faith was just as fun, and that's only given 3*.

Another Doug Reed Route

Rating: 4 - Felt pretty easy, but I haven't been climbing much in the 5.11 range lately, so my calibration probably isn't great.

Possum Lips

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0800

Rating: 3 - Went up this one to take photos of another climber who was about to attempt an onsight. Had to hang once or twice myself, and I half clipped at least one draw with my nose. Did I mention I hate slab climbs. Probably because I suck at them. Didn't even want to go back for the redpoint.

Rating: 3 - redpoint 3rd go. not as easy finish as aqueduct, juggy but stays with you a little more...

Rating: 5 - Fun whipper from the third bolt, and some smaller falls trying the crux. Did the crux move after like 5-6 tries.

Loosen Up

Rating: 3 - This was an interesting climb. Crux came at the top where the crimps got loafy. Good right hand jug under the anchors.
