Comments: Fun Route! I ended up placing a new BD #5 at the beginning and walking a #6 for most of the way.

Comments: Hahahaha, 11c? I belayed Cedar on it and top-roped it. Opening moves are reachy followed by a very difficult moves with bad feet to gain the lieback above. It's one of the best 5.12s I've tried at Vedauwoo :)

Comments: What are the best shady walls to climb at in the summer? I'm looking for crags with variety but with emphasis on wideness.

Comments: I have small fingers, but 12- seems a bit much. Sandbag alert! It would be way harder than that if you have big fingies.

Comments: I'm 5'3, so for me, it felt like 12a. I had to use small feet to get choked up on the sloper and then had to jump. Enjoyable movement.

Comments: First changing corners is definitely the crux, especially if you have small hands and purple juniors is your worst size ;) But, you get rewarded with a few good thin hand jams in the relentless layback.

Comments: The rumor is that this climb was named after the late Micah Dash. The neighboring climb, the hostess, was named after his longtime girlfriend, Amelia Patterson.

Comments: I did this climb yesterday. I placed a blue TCU, a gray TCU, and a small nut, I think a BD size 3 nut. The gray TCU and the BD size 3 nut go right next to each other in the small parallel crack where the hard climbing starts. If you place them right, they are bomber. It felt hard for the grade!


Location: CO : Boulder : Eldorado Canyon SP : Redgarden Wall : Redgarden - S Buttress : C'est La Vie (5.11b)

Comments: Just as a heads up, the second pitch is a little scary now due to the fact that a questionable nut has been wedged into the perfect TCU placement above the piton. The nut is about 1/3 a way in, I guess some people tried to get it out, but then stopped....
