I am struggling to think of a better 6b+ sport route. Long, consistent, interesting blobs and tufas the whole way. The opposite of a grey slab.

Ascent of the trip! Sneaker action maximum. Sick boy today. More drugs, drinks at the bar, then bed.

Brutal hard start, and then another butt hard move above a ledge - like most of the other 6's here!

Took a week for this to not have a party on it. Super long, kinda awkward, with a definite ledge-fall possibility on that first ledge.

Worth doing for the incredible, drippy, rock architecture. But the slab, oh god, the slab.

Route #1 of the trip. New rope, shoes, belay device, harness (for John). Miracle we survived.

Glad Chris put the gear on. Another two bolts wouldn't hurt. Intricate.

Great rock on this one and well worth doing. A deceptively tricky move down low.

Couldn't walk past this on the way out. With the huecos, just looked awesome. And it was!
