Ascents as sport by Luke Stefurak

Wow.. Hard... Could only do 50% of the moves...

Hard reach start to a sequence of bad pockets and big moves to a good rest. Then a reachy curx leads to small holds but the angel eases.

Did the top crux easily fresh. then lowered further and did the route from 3rd bolt to the top with no falls. Used crappy undercling to adjust into 2nd crux holds. Need high feet!! SWEET Now I need to do the beginning and link it.

Epic hang dogging battle. I got all but one of the moves on lead including the finishing dyno off crimps with a sweet one hand foot free catch. But this route was so hard there was no chance to piece it back togeater.

Hard boulder problem start to a technical sequence followed by jugs. Got the boulder problem but pumped out

After a vailent dogging by jamie i had to clean this hard climb, it had significantly smaller holds than the rest of the obed and was still overhaning!

Loved the jump start and got the 2nd bolt clipped but couldnt make it over the roof. One try i got stood up but my hands were switched so i flew. It was the last climb of the day so I bailed. Next time!

Big slopey holds. Didnt find the kneebars. Thought this was harder than Tissue Tiger and Gung Ho.

Super Powerful... Took me 3 tries on my second visit...

Hard/Weird start to fun climbing and a good rest. Through harder ground to a commiting right arm move with crappy feet. Will get back on when my shoulder is better!

Onsighed to the crux, it took me a few tries to get through it. Didn't give it a 2nd go, should be able to red point.

Really fun cool climbing on odd shaped holds. Couldnt do the first crux...

Wow what a route. Another hangdog epic, where i got all the moves except the show stopper to the 2 finger pocket... Mind boggeling climbing!!

Amazing steep climbing, A few falls, could have redpointed but the weather set in and then we left the ford.

Hard start and great route. On my 2nd try i fell off good holds near the anchors after getting through both cruxes.... OOPS!

Felt a bit easier this time. Though i had a harder time getting up the layback.

2nd Go. Super Excited. Amazing movement and holds. Great rests!! Pumped at the top!

Amazing line!! Hard boulder problem to a big reach right to the rail and then shake out press up the rail and fly up the jugs to the top!!

An easy start leads to 2 bolts of hard climbing. This was the hardest route I had tried in a while and could not commit to the sequence on my redpoint go. Also there is a bunch of loose rock. Exciting runout after the crux!

Much harder than culture shock. Dont really know where to go at the end. I finished via the crux to culture shock.

Got this on my 2nd try. Clipped the anchors from dripping wet holds. The rest of the route stayed dry in the rain though!!

Couldnt but the move and had to bail...

Sweet start toehook to a great kneebar rest. !!

Onsighted to the crux boulder problem. Didn't have enough endurance to send it. Stick clipped the anchors... Some day.

Hard boulder problem through first 3 bolts with big moves to sustained but much easier climbing. Sent 2nd try

On the 2nd go got past the low crimpy crux. Pumped off the quartz hold 1 bolt before the anchors.

Easy and fun climbing to a big hold. I got too pumped and fell off the small holds at the top for a long fall. Next time..

Hard crimpy arete

2nd Go. High foot makes the crux a breeze. Soft for the grade.

The top crux is still a stopper and now the opening move tweaks my shoudler a bit..

2nd go. Fun reachy sequence through good pockets. Took the left exit since it seemed more obvious.

Nailed the big move on my second go and finished up the climb!!

Got to the boulder problem and couldnt do it. Too pumped but now i have the sequence.

On the next visit to the RRG I sent on the first go, since i didnt pump off the 2nd crux.

Did a hard varation to the opening boulder problem and then botched the 2nd crux

Amazing route. Fun holds and movement to a slopy directional crux btw space bolts.

Slabby technical start to a sick overhang!! Make the hard clip before launching into much harder ground!!

Got the redpoint 2nd go. If i had used the no hands rest the first time i might have flashed it, also the finish beta is interesting. Very Rumney!

LONG and very pumpy, made it past the first 4 then fell.

Finally nabbed the red point. Threw a left heel hook to get through the crux.

SICK! Got this on my 3rd try. Would have done it 2nd try but didnt commit. Sweet line.

Tricky clibing, semi footwork intensive that leads to VERY hard finish, I had to traverse around it

After reaching the arete I backjumped the route since i had no gear. more like 23

Silly one move wonder took many falls to work out... I needed to be pefectly fresh and instead of deadpointing i cut my feet in a dyno..and blow a tip.. then after a short break stuck the deadpoint. Next red point attempt i fall agin and blow anothe tip.. no more effort.

Climbed third go with hanging draws. Steep jugs lead to a desperate crux right before the anchor

Flashed after beta and watching a few guys do it, Hung Draws!

Great Climb!! Tall stick clip because of the exciting opening roof. Then through ok climbing to a very good rest. Clip from a jam, power through some crimpers and you are at the top!

Fun Pockets and crimps lead to juggy underclings

Freaking awkward beginning to cool bulge climbing then a big rest. From the ledge enter a long crimpy crux sequenc through like 3 clips to a moderate rest to a second cruxy bit before a bit of dodgy rock and then the anchors. Could have put it all togeater if i had more skin...

Bumbled the crux seqence but managed to hold on!!

Quite stout small holds climbing. I had height issues clipping the second bolt so on my clean lead i started with the first two bolts preclipped, the crux lies right after clipping the second bolts so i would be looking at a ground fall from worse holds since i couldnt clip early.

Very cool after bailing before the first clip on the onsight attempt it took me one more go to find out that the top was easy and then on the second full go it went! Sweet Roof!!

Great start to very steep large moves to reachy powerful finish

Pumpy climbing -> crimpy travese to rest to AMAZING finish

Got it second go! How cool is putting your heel above your head to get some weight off to make a clip!! Now all I have to do is go back and do the enduro extension!!

Quite Soft

Cool start traverse to awkward hold to get to crimp over the lip. To fun finish

Thought I was on another climb but ended up with the onsight anyways.

After using a stick clip to go up this route to take pictures of undertow i realized it looked sweet and sent it first go!
