Ring of Fire
Oct 1, 2023 · 1 pitch. Lead / Onsight. I hiked to the bottom of the last pitch and sent it. The topo isn’t very clear and there’s no guidance. I tried the line that goes to the right facing dihedral with the bush in the middle of it and the slab. The bush is very inconvenient and the pro doesn’t look great. Bailed from that and went right to the steep, chossy chimney. It’s not so chossy anymore. I cleaned it up about as much as it needs. I may rap down onto the slab, try to rip that bush out, and see what I can make of that line.

Lover's Leap
Sep 1, 2023 · 3 pitches. Lead / Onsight. Don’t need much gear if you have a decade of climbing experience up to 5.11 trad. Exposed bits on low pitches, but everything’s there if you’re 5’7”. Doubles in hand sizes, singles in fingers is really all you need. Leave the stoppers on the ground. Rapped the route with a 60m. Last pitch crack is way short, but nice —a bit tight for my medium hands, and there’s an overcammed BD #1—but has a fun, tricky twister move that’ll boost your stoke when you climb out of it.
