Ascents in Sentinel

Didn't seem like this gets climbed too often (lichen and mud in a lot of the cracks, some loose rock), but it was a fun route! I led the first and third pitches, Mark led the second. The second pitch was my first experience with off-width climbing. I enjoyed it, but was also glad it was short and I wasn't on lead.

I led the first pitch, Mark led the second. The climbing on the first pitch was easy, but gear was a little hard to come by (at least to my still somewhat untrained eye). On the second pitch Mark climbed above the obvious 5.6 rightward traverse to create a much more difficult traverse on tiny footholds immediately under the roof. Some fun spice to end the climb!

Super clean and continuous crack and it's fun to follow a single line all the way up. We split it into two pitches, I led the first and Mark the second.

I led the first, very fun, marginally offwidth crack and Fritz led the second offwidth.

Jim led the 1st pitch and I led the 2nd (a 5.7 undercling). There were some good spots but not as consistand in grade as Lost Ledges

Started out climbing in wrong spoot, but Fritz soon figured it out and I started out again on route. Good climb, but 5.7 not sustained, just at three short sections. Afterward we started something else and got rained out.

Rock holds pro really well and first lead is continually good climbing.

This was harder than I thought for a 5.6. An interesting climb and very good rock.

Attempting Lost Ledges; however, we were on the wrong side of wall, the desctiption didn't exactly match up. The 1st pitch was crap, but the 2md was excellent.

When Fritz & I climbed this we thought it was a different climb. We don't know if it was climbed before. I would give the crux a 5.6. The rest of the climb is only 5.4 - 5.5.
