Ascents in Owens River Gorge as various tick types by Jeremy Kupferman

Took far longer than it should have. Coming into the crux moves is an interesting combination of balance and power, and I always seemed to be lacking one or the other.

Really only 5.8/5.9, but requires a solid 5.10 lead head because of the bolting. In this case, overgrading is a good thing.

Pretty fun, but the route wanders so much on the upper face that it detracts from its overall quality.

Super polished stone...good thing the jugs are HUGE

It's been my experience that anytime the guidebook calls a climb "bouldery" that actually means awkward...holds true for the start of this climb.

Should have onsighted this, but I missed the GIANT buckets on the arete...

Eh...maybe 4 stars shortly after the FA, but it's pretty polished now

Last bolt is kind of unnecessary, as it's only an easy 4ft traverse to the anchor (on a giant ledge)
