Ascents in North America as Hang dog by Maxwell Cullen

One of the most fun routes ever. Dropped it at the last hold trying to reel it in and clip the anchor but couldn't quite manage it. As of the time of writing this, I still feel like the pump hasn't quite receded.

If you're ever in Skaha, get on this climb.

What a classic! The move into the "womb" is crazy. Couldn't work it out on the fly, got it in a one-sit.

Pretty good! Easy but pumpy up to a hard boulder guarding the chains. Dropped it there 3 times before moving on.

One to come back for if I'm ever back in the area. This thing might be the best route I've ever had the pleasure of dogging.

Can a climb get ten stars? Wow.

Easy and then really hard and baffling top moves. Almost bagged it but ran out of daylight. Super fun.

All moves done on first try but Christ what a crux. Crazy pinch compression for like three bolts.

Lots of high one hangs. Tick tock...running out of days

No luck on the middle boulder but have the top one more or less sorted. Hard and very tricky.

Fell off the last move looking through the chains again how good

What a chuffer

Linking and falling, lucky it's fun

Another bash in dogshit misty conditions. Lower crux was pretty much mud but upper crux was dry. Worked on that and linked some sections.

Moves sorted, game on.... hopefully

Need more blood in my arms

Ferociously pumpy with a powerful crimp crux for the last couple of bolts. Fell looking through the chains pumped silly. Happy with that for a first redpoint go!

Hard n good, very tricky.

Very good and very strenuous corner climbing. Wild.

Fun! Couldn't work out the crux pinch and high feet combo.

Jugs forever with the hardest move waiting to slap you around right at the anchor. Oof.

Gave this a few tries. Links together some of the most fun steep juggery I've ever tried. Dropped my best attempt just before a knee-bar and thread rest but not even mad about it. Keen to give this another whirl.

Couldn't figure out the moves traversing th roof above the WtLG anchor and bailed. Gets 12c in the local guide, idk. Hard and confusing roof trickery.

Awesome pockets and jugs spit you out pumped into a nasty edgy crux with shit feet. Couldn't quite make it happen.

Great jugs and pockets up to a nasty crux that I couldn't quite figure out. All the jugs disappear and the remaining options all face the wrong direction. Gave this a good couple of attempts.

This thing is fuckin sick. All moves done but no go on the send.

Almost got it, ahhh well. Not sure if this is classic because it's good or classic because it was the first bolted face in Smith.

Regardless, it's got probably one of the coolest holds I've ever used on it. That weird spock/X grip in the crux is wild.

Fell at the top like an absolute punter, time to retire

Dog x 3. This thing makes me feel like such a shit climber lol.

Another couple of bashes up the sickest thing in existence.

Will I ever not dog this? If this is 12a then everything back home is soft

Awesome, puzzling, vertical-dyslexia inducing.

Super fun! Steep bouldery jugging

Got all the moves this time but Jesus fuck this thing is hard

Some of the most cryptic and consistently interesting climbing I've ever tried

Thought this was nails but still learning the style I guess

Awesome and unlikely movement

Desperate V5-6 boulder off the deck followed by pumpy 5.11ish climbing to the top. Is it any good? Hard to say...

All bricked up and nowhere to go. A nice day of sampling some harder stuff tho

I now understand the popularity, what a line. Might keep tickling this while I'm here but wow what a pumpfest.

Nails boulder off the deck but then not too bad to the anchor. V6 minger for like two bolts...

Hard but doable.... not many bolts on it 😅
