Comments: staying on the arête (not moving right near the top) definitely adds to the spice, and adds a couple 5.9ish moves in to the top. great exposure.

Comments: plenty of hollow sounding rock, but good holds abound too.
adding a couple chain links to the anchors (or climber using long draws at the anchor) would reduce rope-drag for the 2nd.
overall, pretty fun climbing!

Comments: TRed this route from the anchors of "The Dogs..." Fairly fun. I didn't see many friendly gear placements on the bottom 20' or so of the route, but then, i don't have have a ton of trad experience.

Comments: This route was pretty fun. I didn't find it to be run-out at all and used only the bolts; fairly comparable to a lot of Tucson/Cochise climbs. The "X" block is still marked; and easy enough to avoid.

Comments: Starting left hand hold looks like it's going to blow...that'd be a big chunk falling on your leg. Instead i started on the much smaller holds a bit to the right.

Comments: My friend Chris L was on this route today and two holds simultaneously broke above the "hole." Nasty fall, glad i was spotting. Anyway, chances are that the grade goes up a bit now - both holds looked to be popularly used (chalk and beta photos).

Comments: Riley's not doing a traverse in this photo. He's actually doing a route commonly called TTT (or Triple T) which heads straight up.
