Ascents of Rock Hugger as sport

fun climb! the roofs/shelves provide ample opportunity to try out some big moves or just scamper up

With having been climbed enough that everything is clean (rather than a bit dusty, post-opening), I'm comfortable with calling this 5.8. Not a gimme "5.8" like "Too Many Puppies", but actual real 5.8.

Really a good addition to this section. Dry even after heavy rain!

My goal for the day -- got the red-point.

Still a bit torn on the grade. It is somewhere in the 5.8+/5.9- range.

Excellent addition to the sector!

Took a fall on he FA attempt when a chunk of rock came off in my hands... managed to hug it, rather than drop it on my belayer, though. So, that's good. Of course, it did result in a couple people wondering why I shouted "rock" and nothing actually came down.

FFA. Very nice lead. Stole the FFA (with permission!) from David after he miraculously hugged a rock after it detached from the wall as he fell on his FFA attempt. Nice climb! Hoping it'll become a fun moderate of the area. Interesting holds and moves throughout.

Played around with some more choices in there.

Need to come back, put in a proper anchor, clean it, and bolt it.
