Location: CO : Boulder : Flatirons : North : East Ironing Board : Velvet Elvis (5.11a)
By: Lenny Miller When: Nov 3, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: A pink (#1/2) tricam fits perfectly into a pocket between, and in line with, the pin and the first bolt, protecting the moves to the first bolt nicely. Place it while standing on the ledge after the initial traverse (then the large gear for the crack is not necessary). A black (#1/4) tricam can be placed above the 3rd bolt on P2 to protect the last moves to the top (although it is easier climbing here) - a similar-sized nut would work here as well. Many of the bolts are starting to r... more >>

By: Lenny Miller When: Jul 30, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: Although I did not get a chance to try this - it seems a more natural line would be to continue up Sketch Palsy after the crack fizzles out. Either way - excellent climb... DO IT.

Location: CO : South Platte : Buffalo Creek : The Castle : Wiggins Route (5.10b PG13)
By: Lenny Miller When: Jul 23, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: Climbed this yesterday. This route has the potential to be one of the classics at the area, with a prominent line, and excellent varied climbing. However, a few issues cut it back a notch in my book.
1 - The two bolts protecting the P3 crux look like modern placements, except instead of modern hangers, there are wired stoppers (#3 size?) cinched under a nut and washer. And the wires are looking somewhat oxidized. On top of that, unless you brought a BigBro to protect the OW below, you're ... more >>

Location: CO : Boulder : Eldorado Canyon SP : Rincon : Rincon - Center Route & R : Rinodina (5.9+ R)
By: Lenny Miller When: Mar 26, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: Combining P1-2 was difficult for my partner (lots of rope drag) and took a full 60m. I suggest belaying below the rotten band as Levin describes in the guidebook. He found a good belay just below the P3 roof (on the face below the ledge) that helped make the roof a bit safer to lead. I found reasonable small gear below the P3 roof, and a 0.5 Camalot at the lip. Nonetheless, I agree with Tony - the roof is a fright-fest and felt like 10- to me. Getting established to the right is the crux - after... more >>

Location: CO : Boulder : Upper Dream Canyon : Lost Angel : Spiders From Mars (5.11)
By: Lenny Miller When: Mar 19, 2012 | view comment >> | Comments: A nice mixed sport/trad link-up exists that straightens the line and provides a consistent single pitch to fixed anchors: start with the initial Caterer corner (11a/b?), then head into the stellar (but short) Spiders dihedral (11c), then jog right to the final Caterer headwall (12a) and anchors above. To prevent rope drag, sling any trad gear below the first bolt long, as well as the first two bolts on the upper headwall. Gear up to 1". It makes for one of the better lines on Wakeup Wall.

Location: CO : Boulder : Eldorado Canyon SP : The Whale's Tail : Jack The Ripper (5.9+ X)
By: Lenny Miller When: Oct 4, 2007 | view comment >> | Comments: Led this today. I was able to get what I thought was a very solid #4RP about waist height just prior to making the initial committing move into the shallow, R-facing dihedral, then a #3? Peanut in an initially blind placement a few feet higher (still before I made the initial move).
The interesting part about the RP placement is that I didn't see it until after I had been up and down a few times placing gear higher, and trying to get marginal gear lower - it's oddly easy to miss, bu... more >>
