Great variety climb with traverses, hand/finger cracks, and squeeze chimney. The easiest climb on the Diamond. I would count the North Chimney as one pitch, and one more if you want to summit (200 feet easy chimney free solo after the last anchor.) The approach was still the biggest challenge for me:)

It looks so intimidating when I was at the Emerald Lake but actual a lot of cracks to climb on. Loose rock approach toward the second buttress. I was exposed in the air looking down great views around me. We climbed the last two pitches following a crack ( and some slab with a small roof) on the right and finished up the Jackson-Johnson (5.9) with many fixed pins and pitons.

5.10a 5.10a IV | ★★★ Casual Route - with Rob Saunders | 300m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
This was my first alpine climb, and it started in fine form, with me holding a piece of granite in both hands as improvised ice axes, smashing them into the snow/ice, while my shoes were slipping everywhere like a cartoon character, and if I slide, I pull Rob off who is simulclimbing above me (on rock), 20m runout. So that's how it started, and it was engaging for the rest of our ascent, and epic descent. Car to car in 20.5 hours. We were super lucky with the weather as afternoon storms are the norm, yet we were spared -- apart from some hail (enough to make the scramble to the top on wet, loose granite blocks some of the scariest climbing of the day - at 14,000ft). Memorable in the same way climbing El Cap is memorable.

A long term goal to one day have the skills and opportunity to climb on "The Diamond" at the top of the Rocky Mountains. Longs Peak is 4346m. Everything about a high altitude alpine trad route in the back country is more complex. There are a 100 decisions to be made and most of them have to be accurate or there's going to be trouble! The climbing is actually one of the more predictable parts. The logistics of approach, timing, exit strategy, weather, food, water, clothing, rack, ropes, communication. If your a 5.10 climber, I wouldn't even consider this route, it is sustained and bold and a lot of experience needed to mitigate the risks.
The approach up North Gully is highly dangerous and has had multiple fatalities and serious accidents. That is about 5 pitches similclimbed after crossing the permanent ice at the bottom (with or without ice gear) These are not mentioned in the description.
We linked pitches 2 &3 and then pitches 5 & 6 cuts down rope work, but meant some spicy run outs with the rack. The climbing is amazing though!
The route took mostly small cams and a lot of nuts. Plenty of long runners used.
The top pitches were technical and easy to make mistakes, plus highly exposed. The traverse pitch also being complicated to get to correct piton anchors. (there are new rap chains near here)
Take some spare webbing to add to anchors if you don't want to trust the multiple faded options that are bundled together. We had a late hail storm come through and wet the rock! Slippery wet granite with lichen and a few easier 5th class pitches were tricky. Multiple ways up have been used to reach the summit via Kiener's Corner.
The walk off took about 5 hours back to the trail head. We had no water for many hours. Great Adventure! Leave early.... Say your hail Mary's to the mountain gods.

so there may have been an ascent of this boulder from a higher start..from Seth.. but every story has been different about it.. so not really sure what the deal is.. but I started on the nob crimpers on the face of the arete.. there is an undercling on the underside you can use to pull on too if you like that position better.. did a couple small moves to two big moves. there is room for lower start I guess.. I started where I did cause it felt natural and the low start is kinda awkward and pushes you into cookies corner then you like do this downward trav which I didn't like.. its a great v10 from where I did it ! two hard moves! one really big one!

Wow, crazy experience. Started trying last year, took me 2 or three days just to be able do all the moves. This year started started out a lil quicker, by my 2nd day this year (or it could have been third I can't even remember) I was made it up to the jug rest and fell dry firing of the slopey rail. Then the battle started. I went up there maybe 6 times after the first day of getting very close. Basically I would get to the jug like 3 times a session and 75% of the time fall because my skin was to dry/cold or my foot would pop off the smears. rarely did I feel like I was falling because I was too tired, always my third try of the day I would pump out but the first tries always felt really good,, in the end I probably made it to the jug more than 20 times... i stopped counting it got that bad. I was getting really frustrated and honestly just wanted to quit trying it for this year, but chad wouldn't let me ! credit goes to him ! ) really amped and feeling extra super fit ! Really amazing boulder with great movement, so satisfying

V6 | ★★ Revenge - with Maria Jose Tamayo, Morgan, Alex | 3m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Two days for this one- pumped out the first! Crux is avoiding the dab and not pumping out at the end. Starts with a few good compression moves on slopers and crimps, then moves on to a very pumpy campusy traverse with a pumpy and psychological finish. Not stellar, but satisfied I could at least do this in a high gravity day!

Same day as magnum flash go I fell trying to cut my feet before the jump move, instead of jumping and cutting, then did the rest of the moves fast and did it from the ground my second try. Nice ass Boulder, really psyched to do it!

Followed pitch 1, but found at the end the altitude was kicking my ass -- what with being a lowlander -- and had to back off. Rapped off tat to the anchors for George's Tree then to the ground from there.
P1 was thrutchy, but fun. |

Did the V6 sit start variation. First V6 in Colorado! Truly amazing place. I can honestly say that this is probably the most beautiful bouldering area I have been to. The granite is unique- very featured and perfect texture. Beautiful summer day out catching up with Morgan and Alex, walked out in the rain (with a gorgeous rainbow to boot), as is traditional in the area. Looking forward to many more, hopefully soon. Perfect end of a busy week. Fingers crossed!
