Pull Up A Drill
Dec 3, 2024 · 2 pitches. Lead / Onsight. Rope solo. Super fun. Not sure if I did this or something else as there were several bolt lines in the vicinity. Went essentially straight up wall from starting cove. Some loose sections but nothing too bad. Car said 35 degrees at parking lot but the wall was so warm I was in a T-shirt
Sport 3 pitches

King of the Mountain
Nov 3, 2024 · 4 pitches. Swapped leads with max on the first four pitches. Got a late start but had a blast. Such good climbing on every pitch. Going left of the crack on P2 made the most sense to me. P3 is a banger with amazing movement. Worked p4 for a bit and then had to pull on draws for time sake
Trad, Sport, Alpine 6 pitches

Storming the Castle
Oct 27, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. One hung it. Got it on TR tho. Will get my sequence dialed and come back for an RP at some point. Delicate left side feet with arete slapping and good right side knob to press on through crux. Clipping is tricky but doable if you commit to hard sequences above bolts

Curving Crack
Oct 27, 2024 · Lead. This one never gets old. It’s been 6 years so I’d count it as at least a flash

Oct 27, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Got the first pitch but flailed on second. Need endurance!

Suburban Skyline
Oct 17, 2024 · Did this, refracted, and thin face today. Thin face is definitely THIN and it’s been a while since I was back here (4-5 years) but I don’t think anything broke. Helps to be tall for sure
