Ascents in Red Cliff

Brutal flash pump. Couldn’t climb anything else after

Brutal flash pump. Couldn’t climb anything else after

Went second go, felt good. Will need to optimize to start working the extensions

The dirty scramble and lower into the plants was a little less than ideal. The climbing on this however is worth the two stars. A cautious start for me and hanging at most bolts. Felt like I spent more time figuring out how to pull back on than climbing. The moves all went in the end.

Almost got spooked in the rib feature however Brodie provided some key left hand beta which got me through. Motored up the rest and surprisingly got this clean second burn. Very fun climb if you dont mind the start scramble and the lower in the plants.

first time pulling onto this, almost went clean, just popped off moving into the gnarly undercling once!

absolutely top notch sequence, only spoiled by trudging up the muddy slab to get there and bring lowered directly into the scrub

Another exciting red cliff send! First burn was a mess of bad beta and rope burn, but went buttery smooth second time!

Super fun line - definitely packs the quality in to a few moves! Burly as crux on the undercling. Would get another star if not for the shitty scramble up.

Felt a bit easy for a 24, but think the pre-placed gear helped out.

Whoa. Way harder than I was expecting. I struggled a lot with the the big undercling move. Hopefully can work out a more efficient sequence next time. III

Quick burn on the in-situ draws. Sweet moves up to the fourth bolt, hard beyond that.

Took more sessions than expected. The beta seems solid now. Time to get on with Camel Filter

Great to get back on this and get it first go. Shorter than I remembered but still packs a good punch.

Putting draws on for Camel. Climbing this much better now. Clipping the second bolt proper from the offwidth and then getting my feet left for the final sequence to the chains rather than heel toe cam the undercling

Cleaning draws off. Feels so dialed and nice now

Had a ball heading up this rig and survived. If you can get past the name it’s pretty interesting climbing Found myself in some really strange body positions. Plenty of rests along the way passing a very gym like pinch pulling the first roof mid height. Committing move pulling out of final roof.

Funky moves to escape the trap lead to some interesting and enjoyable climbing. Nice!

Powerful sequence to gain the anchor.

2nd go. Very cool sequence through the roof, the death trap groove is quite fun once you get a nice sequence dialled. A few loose bits but mostly good!

Stopped at the roof but cool climbing up to there.

Looks like some hard moves at the roof

Nice route some interesting side pull moves

Short but interesting, with some good moves. Thought it was in the 22 to 23 range.

NIce moves, a bit committing at the crux, if you don't know the moves. Felt more like 22/23.

Quite good once cleaned up. Super soft for the grade...

Had a hold break off on me mid crux and fell. Topped out but the rope drag was a bit of an epic on the clean. Lots of long slings required

Very sketchy route. Loose and un inspiring. Belayer beware

This route is a shocker! Don't climb this, and instead throw rocks at your belayer - it's the same thing. Climb loose and breaking holds to the third bolt where you traverse right on loose and breaking holds to a runout section to the chains on loose and breaking holds.

Finally it all came together. A lot of dry fires in the working process. A short but powerful route at its crux. Good to put to rest a route that was labeled unclimbable.

Finally put this route to rest. Took a lot of prep work to be climbable again. Forth bolt is a very awkward clip. Big throw to Gaston move is the first stopper. Then a tricky bold head wall problem using high feet and body tension power laybacks. After that an awkward final clip on the anchor off a block pinch. Psyched to finally piece it all together. Possibly grade 30.

Well 'ard. Threw in the towel last year but feels good now! Did the full crux and all the moves, psyched.

Awesome route, essentially three boulder problems with super interesting movement. Definitely more fitting to a short person with those bunched moves 😆

Top out of cliff

Back again, still the hardest thing I've ever tried to climb, and completely my anti style. New clipping beta has me alot more psyched to sink some time in!

A horrible scramble up loose rock to the first bolt leads into nice delicate moves. Lots of bolts, spider-webs & loose rock, but still very enjoyable.

A bit different with a balancy crux.

Good quality climbing, great moves (must brave the wasps).

Nice solid climbing! Good fun. Interesting belay ledge.

Got it first time
