Ascensioni in Colorado come Hang dog

Third go. Got to the last holds before the jug at the anchor. The left sloper had gotten wet from the seepage again (the climb was wet at the top today making it a bit tricky to finish). Got stuck with a high right foot and wet slopers for holds and couldn't reverse back in order to change course. Fell at the last hold again. Then got rained off. Oh well.

Second go. Fell on the very last move to the jug for clipping the anchors. What a fool.

The onsight train stopped on this one. Fell after the third clip because I misread the route, going for the pocket with left instead of right hand.

Pretty good but the solo to get to the first bolt felt unnecessary, and it messed with my head for the onsight

Could definitely go on a good day with another few burns

8 bolts, chain anchors

8 bolts, chain anchors

Botched the OS because I went for the wrong hold. Otherwise could have happened. It will go next time. Long and pumpy, with great moves throughout. Feels like more than 24m?

Thought I would onsight, but it's a tough 11d! Did back-to-back attempts and was too tired on the second try. I kept forgetting my sequence and not finding the right holds. Not over after the crux, as you have to trust these non-holds to top out! Crimpy, tensiony and reachy.

Super hard 12a. Probably not 12a V4ish boulder problem off the bat, followed by pumpy steep climbing, finishing with another V4ish boulder problem. No real rests I could find. Had little time to rest, so will have to come back for this unique, fun climb!

Excellent varied climbing! Has it all- steep terrain on jugs, balancy vertical, delicate slab, and of course, the crimper boulder problem. Had back-to-back attempts, and didn't feel good enough on the second. Then I came back on 7/8/2023 with Edel, and I messed up my sequence on the first try, then got hailed and rained on the second try (even though the holds were wet, I made it to the first move of the top crux before slipping from water!). Super fun climb, will come back for it!

Cool route basically consisting of just slabs and underclings, with a series of quite difficult mantles. Had to hang once at the last bolt. If you follow the bolt line there, it's very hard in my opinion.

Had a session this past Monday as well as past Friday on this beast. I did all the moves within one session! Very psyched to be projecting this. Climbs up Tell Tale Heart, including its crux, to break out roght to a V6/7 sloper boulder problem. The slopers are baaaaad. Definitely a low percentage boulder problem for me, so I need to build endurance to get there really fresh!

Felt very tough! Good footwork and some crimp strength required.

What. A. Classic. Best climb I've attempted in CO so far! Permadraw-ed too. Two working attempts. Starts of with an easy slab, followed by the business: steep big, original moves on good holds take you to the roof, which consists in a V5 crimpy boulder problem followed by a V3 mantle. Can't wait to get back on!

Quick dusk climb after photo sesh with Justin's camera! Seems much easier than last time I was here, but still not easy! I'll probably get it next time

Thin, pumpy, and powerful route! The type of vertical climb which has you slapping your feet as you inch up the wall to reach the next gnarly hold. Gave it a good onsight try, listened to someone who had tried it earlier after I fell, but it turned out that my original beta was correct. Belayed by Jakob, and was the last climb of the trip! Excellent winter camping trip with new friends

Tried hard on my first attempt at this overhanging beauty, and got so close to grabbing the final jug! It is a little hard to find. Easy climbing leads to a short 3-bolt overhang that has you on steep underclings, body-tensing footwork, and a big move to the jug off of which one clips the anchors. Next time I'll get this!

Thin, balancy, commiting, and crimpy. Pretty much Shelf style. Two cruxes separated by a ledge rest. Second crux is fingery, sequency and precise. Could probably get this in a few more attempts.
