Comments: Here is my interpretation of the line:
A single number does not accurately convey the difficulty of the line, especially on the YDS. A better way of describing the free climbing is a section of 5.7 to a single V5 move to a short section of 11+.

Comments: On 03-17-12, I climbed the problem listed in the guidebook as "15 Project V?" from standing on the rocks. I was unsuccessful from sit-starting on the ground.

Comments: This is a fun route. The first pitch had lichen in the crack. It should clean up with more ascents. "THE VOO: Rock Climbing in Vedauwoo" lists it as 5.9/A0. I onsight free climbed the A0 bolt ladder on the third pitch on 07/24/11. It is hard to grade onsights, but I would guess 5.11a.

Comments: I couldn't find this climb in the 2011 Guidebook. It is quintessential bouldering on a rope. My best guess for the grade is 11c. The crux revolves around a long pull off a good mono (Brilliant!). Bring a brush! It is dirty but should clean up to be a nice addition to the area.

Comments: Where does this problem go from once you have the left hand crimp and right hand on the arete? The path of least resistance is traversing to the right around the arete. Traversing to the far left into the crack is next hardest. Climbing directly up is hard but contrived.
