Fell on the crux moves at the bottom. Started again and got it clean. Really fun route.

Had led this a few years ago. Protects well - a good beginning leader's route.

5.2 5.3 PG | ★ Beginner's Two - with Dav | 64m | ★ Good | |||
A bit of a sandbag. The name is misleading - I chose this for my friend's first ever rock climb having never climbed it myself: a good initiation to old-school "easy" JT routes! We descended in semi-darkness via the chimney near Bussonier.

A really nice thin finger crack. A bit pumpy towards the top.

Didn't take a big cam so had to run it out a bit on P2 but fun, secure climbing and a nice sunset.

Hidden Valley Campground Intersection Rock South-West Face | ||||||
5.8 | ★★ The Flake | 43m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Apparently we both did the lower chimney/offwidth section facing the wrong way which made it much harder. I had to pull on a sling to get through this section. The rest of pitch 1 and the slabby pitch 2 were good.

No cams required except for the belay - this climb is a great practice for slotting nuts!

Short but fun.

Seconded 1st and 3rd pitch and led (onsight) a variation of the 2nd pitch which followed the left crack above the 1st belay instead of the right.

5.9 | ★★ Butterfingers Make Me Horny | 18m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Certainly doesn't feel like a 5.9 - in fact it's only a 5.8 in the two guide books I've seen.

Requires a variety of techniques. The chimney near the top looks daunting but isn't too bad. I found the climb quite strenuous.

Sheep Pass Hall of Horrors The West Wall (West Face) | ||||||
5.10a | ★★ Ledges To Laundale | 15m | ★★ Very Good | |||
I think I started slightly right of the actual start for this climb which may have made it easier, but this didn't seem like a 5.10 to me (mainly because I've never managed to get up a 5.10 in J-Tree before). Mind you, I'm sure it would be a whole lot different on lead).
