Comments: Mythos were my first pair of climbing shoes and still my favorite climbing shoes. Nothing fancy just a great climbing shoe!

Comments: Sorry for the super late deal. Don't matter what rating you climb during the summer as long it is in the shade. When it is 100+ in Vegas the shaded canyons are still perfect to climb.

Location: NV : Red Rock : Cactus Flower Tower : Cactus Flower Tower summit : Blood on the Tracks (5.9)

Comments: Climbed this route with Robert and his description of it is good; but I just wanted to reiterate that this climb is an "adventure" route. If you are a looking for a classic Red Rock climb, this is not it. Though only rated 5.9+, it is long, steep, and sustained; and includes run-outs on rock which are at times sandy and/or crunchy, making this a very serious route that should be taken lightly.

Comments: Pumpy... yes. 5.11... no. Thought this was easier than Rubicon (in Jtree) and that is rated 10c.

Comments: Felt easier than 5.11 to me; maybe it is height dependent. I am 6'3" and it was a little reachy at times for me.

Comments: Felt this was pumpier than its neighbor repo man. Or maybe it was because I had to take an involuntarily rest above the 2nd or 3rd bolt, due to the fact that my belayer was puking for food poisoning. SHe puked and I continued on to get my on-sight.
