Ascents of Frolic as Onsight

Guiding my students

Got the big gear out for Scotty to try his first trad lead

#11 hex, y'all!

Nothing smaller than a #4. Bump the gear up as you go. Traverse left and lower of the DRB.

Only large Trad. I soloed as nothing large enough to place

Nice, hardly offwidth, and you’re mostly on the face anyway

I loved this. Smiled a lot while climbing it. Ultra jugs and foot jams. Towed a rope up with me so i could rap off the rings on the left-hand route. If you're waiting to climb, chuck a quick lap for sure! (Approach shoes)

Just a quick lap because it looked so nice!

fun lead with the Rowan!!!

Fun climbing with lots of holds. Needs bigger gear than a #3 camalot...

Worth doing if you have big gear with you.

My first trad climb. Exceptionally easy but with the grade it's expected. We couldn't find any anchors. We used the anchors for the route to the left.

Been there, done that. Don't bother if you don't have the huge cams, it's just dull terror on a standard rack.

Gear beta: sketchy tipped out #4 camalot and #3 camalots. Carrots to belay up right on platform above Salubrious.

Bloody fantastic in pouring rain and approach shoes!!

Easy with good gear

Couldn't resist this little trad offwidth. With Rick.
