Ascents in Coopers having Beta

Might have sandbagged myself.

Landing too dicey

Went quickly after scratching my head over Stout

ABI really beefed me on this one

Post ABI

Post ABI ascent

Flake has pulled leaving a large shelf so even easier now.

Better than it looks.

Great pinch pockets

End of sesh too tired to top

Really nice dynamic move if you skip the intermediate crimp off the shelf.

Made some good attempts. Can exit the cave well but need to dial in the right beta for the crimps.

Could be said soft for V4, but certainly a good bloc.

Climbed a few times to see if a sequence could make it feel V3 as some have suggested.

Need more beans...

Wasn't sure about the beta, throwing right to the cross hair from the starting holds feels harder than v1, using the intermediates on the right feels accurate for the grade

Fun as hell

Do not try unless you know how to pull on chossy loose rock. Climber after me pulled a significant sized rock off the top and took it to the head. Beware

Bailed off the top out.

Punt off the top on the flash burn, bruised hip and sprained middle finger extensor. Them pockets :0

So much potential for great climbing

Still so hard. Managed to stick the first move easily but getting out to the rail is still hard.

Didn't feel any harder eliminating the shelf out left. But pulling on with the lower crimp was the crux and super awkward. I agree with V5.

Had to work for this one so quite stoked to make the reach on the first move.

Jamming practice.

I’d say this is probably closer to a 5. The moves are awkward and committing, but nice nonetheless!

Desperate

Found the sit start jam move pretty strenuous. The crack doesn't require jamming, but this is one of the better ones here to practice a sequence of jams on.

Probably easier than Oude Kriek. The sit start in particular felt easy compared to others in the area, even at lower grades. Still a nice problem.

This is nice. Might be harder than Cassis Lambic.

Tried it twice but the top out wasn't great and didn't justify the dodgy landing. Won't bother.

Could only send this using the block to the right, or with a foot jam in the crack between the wall and that block. Very, very long move and incredibly difficult with intermediates if using only feet on the face.

Felt easier than other, lower-graded problems in the area.

Not worth the risk of falling onto the terrible landing.

Feels absurdly hard for a V1 if you can't make the reach? Also broke off some potential intermediates which didn't help.

Thought I had climbed it, but used the blocky shelf on the left. Thought it felt a bit soft.

Not as good as stout but definitely one of coopers better climbs. Gotta be the worst looking piece of rock but such good sloper slapping.

Working that slap.

Working that slap.

Did an eliminate without the lh pinch and any left heel-toe that might be a 5

Fun line

Still enjoying these jam problems, even if it's one or two moves.

The sit start is surprisingly interesting. Heinous top out.

Interesting at the bottom, horrific up top.

Was previously making this way harder than what it needed to be trying to match on the L side of the arete.
