V2/3 ★ A Dwarf's Delight 2m — Good
Another one that was relatively clean and in a great location. Likely climbed before and never marked up. Found this one quite a challenge, may be easier for shorter boulderers.

Top out is a bit muddy due to all the forest growth, but that's all part of the bleachers fun

23 M1 ★★★ Dance of Life Clean Sweep Connection 45m, 1 — Classic
Really nice climbing between slightly spaced but good gear. Climbed on one rope and drag wasnt crazy but bring extenders. Cleaning on rappel was a mission though and required some serious thinking/swinging hahaha. The rap is 45m, our 80m got us to the higher ledge with Rach pulling me in

After trying to pull off a sit I gave up and repeated the stand. Very satisfying send.

Dont think I climbed from the right location? Was just a throw to a good hold and top out. No balancing or slabby. Topo might be in the whole location in the guide.

Hard first and third moves that feel more like crux moves on other 8/9s in the Gramps. Great climbing. Should get more traffic especially now that there’s a decent landing.
