Smiley Kylee
Apr 23, 2024 · Lead / Flash. Doubles of #0.3 to #3. Happy to see someone added quicklinks and steel rap rings to the bolts at the top to facilitate lower-offs; I remember a few years ago the hangers were naked.

Index Archeology
Apr 23, 2024 · TR. I tried to lead, but at the first bolt, there's only a single hold to work with, and you need to go from hands to feet on the same hold to stand up, which I just couldn't bring myself to do on lead. Later Dustin led it and I top-roped. Useful to have cams #0.1, #0.3, #0.5, and I think a #1 somewhere too? I would have been unhappy if I had been on lead on later parts of the route too. It feels mean to call this a 5.8.

Flying Salamanders (Full)
Apr 23, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. I continued the lead from the ground. Indeed 15 draws. Crux at the 3rd bolt above the midway anchor, I had to pull on the draw a lot to get through. Also hard between the last bolt & anchor, I went far left off-route to get a crack with good finger-locks to finish those last few feet.
