Annunaki
Dec 1, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. This shit is too sporty. I’m a crack climber not a sport climber. The gear is pretty straight forward. 3, 2, 2, 1, 1, 0.75, 1, 0.75, 0.5, 0.4, 0.5

Lady Pillar
Dec 1, 2024 · TR. I felt sick so I TR’d. Would extend out the stuff after the thin crack so that it isn’t rubbing around the sharp corner. It gets bigger at the top!! Like 3’s maybe even a 4! Definitely bring doubles each of 0.2-3 and a 4. Gunna come back for the lead.

Soul Fire
Dec 1, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. It’s a little thin and my katanas absolutely curled and crushed my toes. It thins out to tipped out 0.75 at the top and wish I had a 1 for mentality. I got scared about falling and ripping gear. It was kind of wet at the base so I was worried I was gunna just zipper all my pieces out. 0.75, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0.75, 0.75

The Big Baby
Dec 1, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. This made me beat up and tender. Turns out I was the big baby all along! It was fine through the roof but once my knee started getting stuck in the 5’s it took me literally 80 minutes to finish the route. I wish I had 3x #5’s and 3x #6’s. Destroyed my gloves shoes and almost pants too. Had to jam my knee SO deep and high that my thigh is totally torqued in there. 3, medium SuperCam, Large SuperCam, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, Green Big Bro
