Comments: Why the bag of sand? True, crack and face differ, but the crux was definitely 5.10a for a couple moves. I suppose if you are wearing tape on your hand it would be easier.... I didn't tape up and ended up with less skin and blood than when I started.

Comments: This is a fun route. I was surprised by the strenuous work required to pull over the two roofs.

Comments: I think this route is more fun if you stay to the right of the bolt line.

Location: CO : Boulder : Boulder Canyon : The Sport Park : The Clock Tower : ... : The Big Dipper (5.11a) By: keith story When: Sep 2, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: One of my favorite climbs in the Sport Park. I typically stay in the 5.9-5.10 realm, but my brother took me up on this one and I loved it more than some 4-star climbs. A great route for anyone breaking into the 5.11s.
It's pretty pumpy and juggy at first, but once you top the roof there are a few trickier moves to enjoy.

Comments: Definitely worth the climb. WAY better than chicken delight. I found it easier in the sense that the moves were more fluid, harder in the sense that it is more technical. More tricky short moves = more fun in my opinion.

Comments: It felt like a 5.10a to me, but this was right after working a few other problems on the wall, so it was probably fatigue kicking in. Fun route to climb though!

Comments: I did not enjoy this route, and agree with the last post. The moves felt redundant and pumpy. Delight wasn't terrible, but did not live up to its name. Worth it for a workout.

Comments: I love this route as a good warm up for the chicken wall. It has also been useful as a spot to teach others some leading skills. It seems more like a 5.8 than a 5.9, but it really depends on your route. Don't drift too far from the bolt line!

Comments: This was a deceptive climb. Lots of shifting your weight. Can be pumpy if your not sure of the moves.
