Remain in Light
Feb 25, 2024 · Lead / Onsight. More a 3rd world construction project than a rock climb: Excavated from complete choss and protected by a billion plated steel bolts (with stainless hangers nonetheless). Speaking of which: I just don't get how this is still a thing in this day and age. Completely unacceptable. It is worth noting that climbing this under other parties or without a helmet should be reserved for masters of 1980s Atari classics like Space Invaders, Frogger, Asteroids. OK... as for the climbing itself: Great position and interesting movement. I enjoyed it. I think it's the second best 5.10 multipitch in the park (next to Zebra-Zion), but still a typical over-hyped Smith chosspile. Obviously, people like it though, and fun can be had. PS: an 80 will simplify the raps.

Put Up Your Dukes
Feb 11, 2023 · Lead / Onsight. Rope drag forced me to pro the roof behind me as I climbed. This turned out to be crucial to success. Zero jamming - underclinged the whole thing - although the fists were really secure it was clear to me they would prevent efficient climbing so I resisted the temptation.

Approach Gully
Jan 7, 2023 · Lead / Redpoint. This winter I chickened out on the Approach Gully multiple times and rapped in. However, I'm proud to say I recently sent it in BOTH DIRECTIONS! Psyched!
