Smoke Bluffs Penny Lane
	5.10a	★ The Ugly American	Trad 25m	Average	davedave
Weird climb, spicy moves down low with difficult pro leading to persistently awkward moves. Pro mostly odd pockets, would have preferred more stoppers and totems.
	5.11a	★★★ Partners in Crime	Trad 25m		davedave
Pretty commuting start leading to good finger locks and average feet. Showstopper final moves - used a stacked finger jam in a dirty shallow groove and mantled. Dogged down low and at the crux, good J's are there but hard to see if you get suckered out left
	5.9	★★★ Penny Lane	Trad 30m	★★ Very Good	davedave
One funky move with a finger locks with slabby feet lead to a rambly upper with good jams. Belay from tree/natural pro, deacent anchor climbers left. Wished I'd Brought more.nuts, it eats em.

	5.10b	★★ Smoke Bluff Connection	Trad 90m	★★ Very Good	bhauski
Increased grade due to 3rd pitch rated at 10b, and top of 4th pitch totally glassed out by gear drag - very little friction in the fist-crack!
