Ascents in Alice Roadside having Beta

Started on the right as for True Drew

First climb in Canada

No trad, used the 3 bolts

Found the anchor area tough to work with, limited footing or area to transition into a rap after the top rope solo setup. Fun little pitch just be prepared to be hanging off your personal lanyard to do any rope work following climbing and into the final rap.

wet like usual, send it

Loose rock before anchor, where a helmet if possible, very fun climb, 2 extended draw to have a straighter line

Really fun and consistent climbing. There is no longer a locker at the chains.

Very photogenic.

Toproped this and couldn't get the crux.

Fell after the ledge of this trying to reach for a hold. Tight belay recommended for that part. Probably not that hard to clip if you're not so short.

A little less cleaned than the right version.

Hard for a 5.8

Hard for a 5.8

The easiest 5.8 here.

The crux requires very good crimping for a super high reach.

I should have led it. Tricky but it all goes quite consistently.

Really interesting moves. Doesn't let up much and the move to the third bolt is freaky and all the bolts are quite widely spaced. The climbing is probably no harder than 5.9 though, putting the fear factor aside.

Fun but a bit dirty.

Mostly the same as Someone's Overhang.

A lot of thin moves.

A bit dirty and mossy -- needs a recleaning or more people climbing it. Not as good as it could be in the current shape.

Took a couple tries to find the good hold.

Anchor feels awkwardly low.

Good climbing and good gear when not wet and dirty.

Fell clipping the anchor 😔

Came back after two years and hiked the crux move on second try using a thumbdercling/sloper I'd have never considered. The rest is easy sailing for the grade in solid crimps and good feet.

Fun, delecate climbing throughout. No harder than white rabbit, just more sustained.

Hard for grade. I followed the arete to the top. Not sure of this is correct but the face is quite blank.

It's not a 5.8 if you finish on the face. It's in the 5.10 range for sure.

Quite enjoyable, extend mid section draws to limit rope drag. Route is well protected.

Got chased out by the rain so me and Zach Smart Multi Pitched this to try and beat the rain Had my first real fall from a lead, maybe 10 feet, had do some funky maneuvers to avoid slamming Zach into the wall but no injuries all around.

Tough Climb. Lots of crimps. Once you get the holds all figured out shouldn't be a problem. I need to go back and just clean up my climb. Too tired that day to clean it up.

This was my first route I ever tried to climb outdoors last year and I couldn't even get onto the wall, came back and lead it free and clean this year. Great climb, good jugs above the overhang, good side pulls. First left foot is sketch, consider a stick clip or be confident.

Fun climb, great view. Good Rappel spot as well

TR to setup TR on Mixed Feelings.

TR to clean anchor.

Clipped the bolts - stopped at ledge, upper face was soaking wet.

Seems harder than 5.8, even if using the Arete to the left -- straight up the bolt line would be definitely into the 10s.

Wandered all over the face, where-ever easiest.

Tough lead soaking wet.

Soaking wet slab at the start -- but ok once established on the climb.

Finished my night with sending this route clean.

Fantastic line to climb if you are fresh off the boat for trad. This was my first trad ascent tonight. No falls, 2 short rests to catch my breath.

Got it clean. To protect the crux pre-clip a long runner to the second bolt. This will prevent a potential ground fall from the first bolt.

Sequence specific moves at the lower half of the climb. Bolts well placed to protect route. Medium gear used for corner. Bomber .75 and #2 placement.

Takes medium sized gear really well in the horizontal crack mid way up

I cleaned the route on rappel. One powerful crux sequence.
