Comments: Folks were up there last weekend. Still some dripping from above, but definitely climbable.

Comments: The beta in that vid is for CRAZY STRONG MOFOS! Normal people do at least two moves before hitting the high right crimp he grabs first.

Comments: I think this is actually to the left of Old People With Soul. It climbs the face left of the offset offwidth feature. Also, I did a pretty obvious sit start from a crimp on the right side of the arete down low and a left hand sidepull on the face. One long move reaches the flat jugs. Might be V5. I thought the stand was more like mid-range V4.

Comments: There's a line that's basically behind the tree in this photo that goes at maybe V4 from the stand. No idea what the name is. There's also a kinda thuggy low-ball-ish problem on the right arete seen here. Probably also about V4.

Comments: Rock quality on this line isn't great, which doesn't really distinguish it from the other lines on this side of the boulder.

Comments: there's a sit from the right side of this face that feels harder than V2/3 to me. A crouch start in the middle is more like V1/2 though.

Comments: Couple things: 1. This boulder is losing a battle with moss. The side with The Ripper on it is particularly lush. 2. I did a pair of lines not listed here: ~a: The first is an easy arete just right of the tree on the Tragedy of Dusk side of the bloc. Starts on jugs and works up right to a very easy topout. Probably V0. ~b: The second is the one I think Andy was talking about. It starts on the low part of the boulder below the slab you walk down to get off and follows the lip/arete up and ri... more >>

Comments: You cross? Damn. Hardcore. I'd recommend going right hand and then crossing to the good incut flake thing.

Comments: I get the gaston & sidepul, do some hard footwork to get my right foot up to the sharp crimp you move to the gaston from, and fire for the pocket. Then I fall.

Comments: Well worth bringing a couple long slings to reduce drag. Key bolt is the one on the first steep section at about mid-height, but there are a couple others that could be extended as well.

Comments: This would be a fantastic short route, but the first big flake creaked when I pulled on it, which I found thoroughly disconcerting. Definitely harder than Clusterphobia in my opinion, but not two letter grades.

Comments: This thing feels crazy hard to me. There's gotta be beta I was missing, because it felt solid V8 or harder. Amazing line, though.

Comments: It's a nice V4ish problem, but it's got some potential for nastiness. You definitely don't want to slip off the feet at the start and jam your self into the gap between the boulders. Plus, some of the flakes are pretty hollow. Fun climbing, though. No idea about the name.

Comments: Or, start with your right hand in the crack, left on an undercling-ish hold low on the arete, left foot backstep on the hold below your right hand, and basically lay back the crack for 3 moves. Then reach for the sidepull on the arete, bump right hand, grab the lip and top out. Maybe not approved beta, but works.

Comments: Jason, the sit is a soft V6 and the stand (from the "smiley face" crimp) is a hard V3.
