Comments: Getting onto the arete in pitch 3 is much easier than it looks. The moves can be well protected, but you may want to back clean some of the gear to avoid excessive rope drag.

Comments: Enjoyable. Easy to protect, but watch for things that might break off. The '92 Vogel guide lists it as a 5.9

Comments: It's short enough that it can be done in one pitch, but rope drag would be significant

Comments: Very fun route. The chimney is a fun problem with plenty of good pro and hidden holds.

Comments: The bolts securing chains at the top of Hot Fudge wiggle from side to side with hand pressure. A party rapping off them stated that "They've been that way for a while."

Comments: Kept expecting a 10a move, but didn't find one. However, I did do it on top rope. If I had done it on lead, I bet the moves would have seemed harder given the sparse protection.

Comments: Picnic (5.6) was a good approach to K-L-W and has rap anchors as well. I would have felt better having a bigger cam (Camalot 3.5-4) getting to the first bolt. For added excitement, give the first bolt a wiggle after you clip it. It looks new enough, but seemed to move a bit.
