Freak Line
Mar 17, 2024 · Lead / Redpoint. First two lead burns were also *coincidentally* the first two times I've fallen on a pecker. Very nearly made it three.

Iron Horse
Jan 27, 2024 · 1 pitch. Lead / Redpoint. The hard part on the first pitch felt easy. Then I continued into the upper pitch of Pony Express that'd I done a bunch before, somehow blew the move and with rope stretch landed in the tree resulting in profanity, exsanguination, nose surgery and many bruised bits.

Stingay
Jun 17, 2023 · Lead / Redpoint. Never woulda done this one without Adam spraying it down. I've always had this on the list. Tried it last week on toprope and fell a bunch before 50/50 sending on TR. Today, all felt great until the final move when falling backwards off the top mantel (the move you don't want to fall on), before not falling. Good times.

Atlas Shrugged
Jun 10, 2023 · Lead / Redpoint. There are about 5 ways to do the (important) move before the first bolt, all of which feel about 10a, but some of which feel more secure than others. It was worth picking a favorite before leading.

Yellow Christ
Apr 16, 2023 · Lead / Redpoint. Thought I would just be supporting Molly on this but got re-psyched and re-sent. It's basically a highball V4 into a stack of bomber gear and a good rest, then a 15 foot V4 runout to the anchor. I think even falling from the last move you wouldn't hit the ground, but it'd be fun to throw a bag off the top to check sometime.
