TR clean. enjoyable route

TR solo on headwall for pictures

TR solo in approach shoes clean. great hand crack in a dihedral with crumbly rock above and below

Fell at crux. Tried to climb straight up the finger crack, gets hard 2/3 of the way up. Instead, reaching left (maybe using the right hand pinch?) to the sidepulls, getting feet up, then reaching to the ledge feels easier. A "jug" is to the right of the crack which might help getting into the loose finger crack above. high left foot onto a small edge. remains tough for a few more moves, but the hand jams are there to rest. awesome hand jams to start.

clean. good quick warm up route

go straight up at second bolt to ledge, then heel hook right

got the crux sequence on my third try, no other falls. keep body by left face, side pull hard on top pod with a rand smear in crack and right foot on smeary bulge.

TR clean, started right hip in, then switched to left hip in at ledge

Super fun movement on the bottom 1/2. Tough arete climbing on loose rock for the top 1/2. At crux left heel jug, left hand side pull around arete , right hand to 3rd pod with thumb catch, left hand upper crystal side pull, right hand to pocket. Then, stay within 1 arms length of arete, first left on crumbly cracks, with a section of easier climbing on the right side before finishing on the left side in the good finger sized crack.

TR rope solo clean

high foot, right hand crimp crux. traverse right immediately after crux

TR clean. great route. a mix of delicate stemming, hard crimping, and pulling hard on a small crack.

TR clean. bottom pitch not worth doing: balancy crimps on crumbling rock. top pitch has some good moves, but the final headwall is the best part. the holds are there to go straight up!

TR clean.

still an awesome route. TR clean

TR clean. good jams

fun route. crux comes at the middle: right and left hand side pulling on crimps, stand up on good edge, right hand into press, work feet, left hand to crimp above undercling, work feet, then to great pocket

did the direct start

Better top roping than leading

clean tr

clean

At crux when crack goes to loose hands, use finger lock to climbers left.
