7c+ | ★★★ Monarch | 25m, 13 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Batted higher than average today. I think the crux is easier for long reaches, as I was able to move into the crack statically. Really, just excellent climbing. Though the final overhang isn't as hard as the rest, its still very fun climbing, from the bottom until clipping the anchors.

7b | ★★★ Thanks For The Memories | 31m, 15 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
This route is a bit overrated -- I'd almost go with 11d (7a). Regardless, the climbing is very fun. This sector is one of the best at the crag.
|
|||||||
8a | ★★★ ...Or the Railway (My Way or the Railway) | 28m, 13 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Spent a bit on this one, worked out the moves. Would need at least another couple goes before the RP I think. Stout, thin, tweeeeky.

7b | ★ Chia Tay (New 7b) | 20m, 12 | Average | ||||
Some tricky business on this one for the grade. Skipped the last bolt on the rp, by the time you can clip it your just about at the anchor anyway.
|
|||||||

Felt hard to me for 11c through the thuggy layback/jamming section. Fun overall, good climbing.

There's a somewhat tricky mantle move at the end, but otherwise its quite soft for this grade.

Hard at 7a+, solid at 7b. Great climbing: if not for the momentum breaking chimney through the bird-poop smeared slot, it'd be a classic.

I think this 7c, or soft 7c+. Fun climbing: if it were more consistently difficult in the upper head wall, it would be a classic.

23 7a | ★★ Pappi's Paradise | 28m, 14 | ★ Good | ||||

Freakin awesome! This cliff just keeps on giving. Super bouldery crux sequence with wild swings on fingerlocks and campussing on perfect, bullet stone. No footholds! One of my best new routes. Could be 8a? [3]

Unlocked crux, but couldn't link to the following campus move. Weird that.

A bit of everything. Slab, pockets, a chimney, and pocketed headwall with a sting in the tail. You'd better float like a butterfly...

Harder than the other 7a's in the area. The line of climbing feels a bit off from the intended line -- affects the overall quality a bit.
