Ascents in The Narrows

just beside crazy alice...give it a shot

My first 5.10!

Trad lead, very nice gear, stuck cam in corner makes for good pro. Would aslo go well on the solo list...next time...

This was an awsome test piece 5.8 route.

This was an awsome route with a delicate move to the left to the anchors and another delicate move back to the right to start the second pitch. We took a 5.8 (New Number 8) variation for the second pitch instead of finishing with the 5.7 second pitch.

This route was very hairy at the bottom. It went straight up a wall with these 3 very small cracks spaced about 9 feet away from each other. You had to make face moves up to each crack holding on to nearly nothing. Once you got past those cracks it wasn't that bad but you had to climb through a lot of slippery lichen. The rappel was awsome off this route. We rapped off of Leage of Doom with double ropes and free hung all the way down to the first rap anchors of L.O.D. When you get to those anchors you are still about 4 feet away from the wall and have to swing in. Pulling the rope down was more work than I like to put into it. It felt like I was hauling a 300 pound haulbag up the wall.

Yeah, more like 5.7 from Mayse's 'Select 'Book.

Lots of rope drag.

protects very well

One of my first outdoor climbs, great!

Crazy Alice was my first climb ever, I'd say I'd say it was pretty good, but of course, I dont really know any better.

Sustained, awkward moves thru the middle

Solid Trad Climb
