I actually climbed the tree!! So fun since there's no fingers cut, just a bit of drop dragging.. but still a funky climb.

I wasn't know this is 6b and even if I could have known, it would not know what the grade means. Just climbed, just fought.

I really enjoyed this route. Specially upon reaching for crimps on the sequence of crux on the upper section. Beautiful!

	7a	★★ Pappi's Paradise	Sport 28m, 14	★ Good	Jill Kristich
For short climbers like me, I found the key to connect the crux a bit reachy.

	7c+	★★★ Monarch	Sport 25m, 13	★★★ Classic	Fred Vanden Bergh
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.
	24 7b	★★ Freakonomics	Sport 27m, 13	★★★ Classic	Fred Vanden Bergh
Excellent climbing, beginning to end.

	7b	★★★ Thanks For The Memories	Sport 31m, 15	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
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)	Sport 28m, 13	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
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.
	6b	★★ The Grass Is Always Greener	Sport 23m, 13	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Very fun route.

	7b	★★ Big Brown B-Hole	Sport 19m, 10	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Rough warm up... Tough business at the end.
	7b	★★★ Animal	Sport 20m, 12	★★★ Classic	Fred Vanden Bergh
A couple cruxes -- the dyno even for me felt long. The upper section has a phenomenal sequence of fun fun climbing. Great route.

Butterfly Valley
	7a 7a+	★★ My Way	Sport 18m, 9	★★★ Mega Classic	Fred Vanden Bergh
Hard for 7a, and very hard for the onsight. I had the benefit of watching as I belayed. Excellent climbing, one of the best at the crag.
	7b	★ Chia Tay (New 7b)	Sport 20m, 12	Average	Fred Vanden Bergh
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.
	6c+	★ Fingerless Pho Man	Sport 20m, 10	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Felt hard to me for 11c through the thuggy layback/jamming section. Fun overall, good climbing.
	6b 6a+	★ Moustache Massage Man	Sport 8m, 7	Average	Fred Vanden Bergh
There's a somewhat tricky mantle move at the end, but otherwise its quite soft for this grade.

Butterfly Valley
	14 5c	★★ Reggae Rocks (Roots Reggae)	Sport 27m, 13	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Fun climbing through the roots of the tree.

	24 7a	★★ Windchime of the Ants	Sport 28m, 13	★★★ Classic	Fred Vanden Bergh
Fun, long tufa pulling
	7b	★★ Muhammad Ali	Sport 22m, 12	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
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.
	7c+ 7c	★★ Flight of the Bumble Bee	Sport 28m, 13	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Only got on this one once before we had to leave -- look forward to trying again. Sorted out the upper beta: tricky and very bouldery, very fun.

	7c 7c+	★★ Horseless Samurai	Sport 27m, 15	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
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	Sport 28m, 14	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Definitely some solid moves at the grade on this one. This day was hot, and it definitely sapped much of my energy. I was happy to stay on.
	22 6c	★★ Cracker Jack	Sport 21m, 12	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Fun moves, good for a rapid warm up.
	7c+	FA ★★★ Monarch	Sport 25m, 13	★★★ Mega Classic	Lee Cujes
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]
	7c+	★★★ Monarch	Sport 25m, 13	★★★ Mega Classic	Lee Cujes
Unlocked crux, but couldn't link to the following campus move. Weird that.
	7b	FA ★★ Muhammad Ali	Sport 22m, 12	★★ Very Good	Lee Cujes
A bit of everything. Slab, pockets, a chimney, and pocketed headwall with a sting in the tail. You'd better float like a butterfly...

Butterfly Valley
	7a+	★★★ Buffalo Love	Sport 26m, 15	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Unlikely this one is 12a ... but its tons of fun. Good variety - crack through a bulge, up a delicate stemming groove.
	7a	★★ Up Syndrome	Sport 20m, 13	Average	Fred Vanden Bergh
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.
	7a 6c	★★ 50/50	Sport 20m, 10	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
	6c 6b+	★★★ Elephant Man	Sport 20m, 10	★★★ Mega Classic	Fred Vanden Bergh
One of the best at the crag, not hard for the grade, but tons of fun beginning to end.

	7c+	★★★ Monarch (Lee Project - 2)	Sport 25m, 13		Lee Cujes
First working burn after bolting. Freakin awesome. Could not yet solve the transition out of the crack. All other moves done. Simon also had a burn.

	23 6c+	★ A Dengue Ate My Davey	Sport 19m, 10	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
A bit convoluted up top -- stay right for the best line.
	7b	★★★ Prayer Of The Mantis	Sport 20m, 11	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Multiple ways through the crux -- fun climbing.
	7a+ 6c+	★★★ Miyagi Box Maker	Sport 20m, 12	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
Crux near the beginning. Nice rock
	6b	★★ You Enjoy Myself	Sport 20m, 11	★★ Very Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
	6b 6b+	★★ Very Tot	Sport 21m, 11	★ Good	Fred Vanden Bergh
First route we did in Vietnam. Fun climbing, crux near the beginning.
	7a 6c	★★ 50/50	Sport 20m, 10	★★ Very Good	Lee Cujes
This route was actually my concept. I toproped it in Nov 2009 and told Slo it was worth doing. The start is unfortunately quite hard and a fall would be ugly (ledge).
	24 7b	★★ Freakonomics	Sport 27m, 13		Lee Cujes
Good rock. Sussed new route afterwards.

	7b	★ Chia Tay (New 7b)	Sport 20m, 12	Average	Lee Cujes
Sussed it out on the lower, then flashed. Freakin nails for 7b. It might even be hard for 7b+?
	6c+	★ Fingerless Pho Man	Sport 20m, 10	Don't Bother	Lee Cujes
I didn't like the bolt positions on the steep wall. Ended up grabbing the draw - wtf! The horror!
	5b 5c	★ Vu Duyen (Unnamed)	Sport 8m, 7	★★ Very Good	Lee Cujes
Another short newie. Trail shoes.
	6b 6a+	★ Moustache Massage Man	Sport 8m, 7	Average	Lee Cujes
Short new one with crux at anchors. Trail shoes.
	7c	★★ Year of the Tiger	Sport 26m, 12	★★ Very Good	Lee Cujes
New route, needed heaps more cleaning - urgh! Good now though. Cool leaning cracks up high, and a bouldery, slippery move at half height. Audrey flashed on my beta. 7b+/c. [2]
