Pump Up The Volume 

a year or so back I hung all over the bolts trying to get this one. Yesterday we top roped it and again..I flailed!!! This thing is thin and takes smooth movement. It is very much Jtree friction all the way! Easy to set up a top rope inside a little hole in the rocks on top (Tight squeeze however) Most pro works well in the small to medium range. After giving this one a shot redirect rope via bolts to the right and have at Grandpa Gander 5.10cR that some found the start more difficult that this route................over and out! Eee Aww Keeeee!!!

Bald like a newborns' butt, thing like a 29 Palms tweaker and fun as heck on TR. Would like to see it led, but man, it's not within my ken to do it! Hung like crazy at the crux, found the key to be using obvious crimps in an un-obvious way and a very helpful right foot micro edge. Way balancey, way frictiony and prolly one of the hardest things I've clawed my way up to date. Highly recommended!

Critical smears and tiny crimps - for quite a few moves made this seem harder than 5.11a to me. Should've picked a nice cold day I guess.

Personally, I think this climb sucks;..the moves are too hard, there are hardly any holds on the climb, bolts hard to clip;.....it's pathetically short, too close to the road......I can go on and on.....whoever did the FA is a moron;........(oops....that would be me.....so sorry......).....Best do something else;...really.....
