Location: UT : Jungle, on the Aquarius Pla... : Upper Jungle : Boris Ascends Again (5.10a) By: Cristina M When: Jul 21, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: In my opinion, most of this route is 5.9. Moving off the last bolt is a bit tricky, but still a soft 10a.

Location: UT : Jungle, on the Aquarius Pla... : Upper Jungle : Climbers in the Mist (5.10b) By: Cristina M When: Jul 21, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: I could sadly only climb this route on top rope because we lacked the large gear! Bring your #4s - at least three of them, if not four! The climb is absolutely beautiful and if you use the features on the face the cruxy offwidth section isn't bad. Top rope it by traversing from the Magilla Gorilla anchors and setting your line. (5.6ish moves)

Comments: Awesome start with beautiful movement, but definitely harder than 11a. The rest of the climb is athletic with some great moves. Very fun.

Comments: A beautiful climb with interesting moves. Just climbed it on 7/21/11 and found some residual loose rock on the second half of the climb. Test holds and don't trust any of the chockstones in the crack off to the right! Helmet for the belayer!

Location: UT : Jungle, on the Aquarius Pla... : Upper Jungle : Baby Gorillas are Cute (5.8) By: Cristina M When: Feb 13, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: I climbed the route about a year ago and I think the 5.8 is accurate. Maybe a soft 5.9
