Comments: Really thin edges past the first bolt, then some balancy moves from third bolt to anchors. Favorite on the wall, but very sustained

Comments: Real Fun approach through a cave. The beggining of the route can be a fun chimney opportunity, with the first bolt looking mighty attractive.

Comments: Crux on this climb requires a little bit of thinking, I used a crimp and lunge method. After that rest of the climb is smooth sailing.

Comments: I agree. I used the So Cal Sport book and the overview map shows areas not on Mountain Project. Was looking for Shipwreck formation but lots of scrambling led to no rock :(

Location: CA : High Desert : Apple Valley Crags : The Dead Zone : The Launch Pad : Cheer Me Up (5.8) By: Chris Asencio When: Sep 14, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: Decent climb, I enjoyed it. You can chimney to the first bolt or climb a face. The exposure looks intense from the belayers view, but once on the rock it doesnt seem as gnarly.

Location: CA : High Desert : Apple Valley Crags : The Dead Zone : The Launch Pad : Lack of Reason (5.9) By: Chris Asencio When: Sep 14, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: Very cool little route. The moves to the first bolt, and the moves from 4th bolt to the anchors felt are cruxy. 4 bolts to chain anchors, about 30-35ft. The last moves feel border line 5.10a.

Comments: Short but sweet. Plenty of good holds, but about the third bolt some larger holds seem to be coming loose.

Comments: This climb was fun when I lead to the left of bolts. It seemed more a 5.8 on left side. Right side was much easier, 5.6-5.7

Comments: Really easy climb till the crux hits you like a brick. Feels like a 5.7 till the crux overlap. Only 1 or 2 hard moves, not very sustained.
