Extremely sandbagged for a 5.9. Cool route, though.
	5.8 ~5.9	★★ I Love Big Jugs	Sport 18m, 5	★★ Very Good	Andre

	5.7	★ Go Directly to Jail aka Photo-Op Arete - with Travis	Top rope	★ Good	Austin Todd
We did loads of variations on this wall from one top rope anchor. Cold day made better with the bros and and some hot tea. I recommend the other side of the river this time of year!
Mon 9th Sep 2019 - Shenandoah National Park
Old Rag Mountain Sunset Walls Upper Sunset Wall
	5.12a	★★ Charmed Life - with Erik	Unknown		Alexandra
This is 4 bolts and I only made it to 3. Didn't realize this was 5.12a since crux is at the top to get to the 4th bolt.
	5.5	The Streak - with Erik	Unknown		Alexandra
Two bolts then got sketched out by distance to anchors that required some traversing. Climbed this route out of season. Lots of slippery growth on the wall.

	5.9	Skid Row	Top rope	Average	Saloca
It seems like it should be so easy, and yet I keep slipping while reaching for the good holds in that upper crack on the arete. Argh!

Seclusion And Romeo's Ladder
	5.9	★★ Lunging Ledges	Top rope	★ Good	Saloca
Extremely tricky problem to work out if you're short! The "short person" variation is rated 5.10+ in the Great Falls guide book.
	5.6	★★ Romeo's Ladder	Trad	★★★ Classic	Saloca
Hard for its grade, I would say. Not necessarily the best place to take a first-time climber.
Sun 22nd Apr 2007 - Great Falls
Dike Creek
	5.6	★ Chockstone Chimney	Unknown 8m	★ Good	Saloca
Very short but I really like it. The chimney is huge! Not too many climbs of this type so it's worth setting it up every once in a while.

Almost had it clean. I slipped on the second-to-last move! Nice climb.
	5.7	★ Bird's Nest	Trad	★★ Very Good	Saloca
I set some gear in the undercling/traverse, which is basically obligatory to prevent crazy swinging that could drag the rope over the sharp flake repeatedly.

Fun tricky slab climbing.
	5.7	★ Conroy	Top rope		Saloca
