Begehungen in Sugarloaf

Fun climb -- all three Comte-Pulleyblanks cleaned it (Victor, Anne-Marie, me)!

lean left, crux comes around the 2nd and third bolt, I had a nice foothold with one foot and a little smear with the other and up to a nice jug.

Did this clean 2x on TR. scary huge runout at the top, not the most secure until a long way up past the third bolt. Haven't fallen but wouldn't want to fall.

first crux at bolt 1 cross over - get right hand out on nubbin, right foot way out, on tiptoes jam left hand into crack, slowly lean and drag foot over and then jam right hand into crack as well.

second crux around bolt 3, left foot is in the crack and right foot is on a good ledge out right, bring right foot into nubbin by crack, layback hard, bring left foot up a step, grab shelf with right hand, then into jugs.

Very good, but too short!

I really enjoyed this route! A fun mantle before some tougher crimpy face climbing. Thanks to the couple who lent me there number 5 cam

Fun sport climb that doesnt have an anchor.

trad lead #2, lovely nut placements

training wall. About the hardest line on this face. Up and through the white.

First trad lead this year...

training wall

Funky burly roof, very first hand jam is tricky to move off of, a little polished and slippery. Then undercling and step over and make a long reach for the horn like thingy which is good, rest, place a piece and thump through the last bit then easy slab to the top. Packs a punch for such a short climb

easy trad, bomber placements!

top was pretty hard in the wet!

easy gear

Enjojable lead

Great warmup. After the roof which is pretty straight forward, feel around on face holds for the good ones. Make sure you double up the pro where you can get it because through the face moves your a bit above your piece

Fun!
