Gondolier Arete 

Good rock, fun climbing, lichen on some [good] holds. Several options to start, 1st bolt too low / unnecessary because there is a good stance for clipping the second.

Another steep, fun route. The crux at the last bolt was a little tricky and felt harder than 10a.

On September 15, there were only a few remnants of poison ivy at the base, but be careful when you pull the rope.

Thoughtful 5.9ish climbing to off balance crux at the last bolt, grazing the 5.10a mark. First bolt is not necessary.

I'm going to disagree with the previous posters. I liked the first bolt! Thank you Kirk for putting it there. It may not be "necessary" if you don't fall, but the second bolt would be fairly far off the ground.

The climb is mostly 5.8-5.9 with one move near the top that makes it a bit more challenging. The last move is easier if you are taller.

Very aesthetic line, well bolted. I found it about 5.9+, but I am tall.
Thanks Kirk!

Cool moves on the arete. A bit ho-hum until the very top, which is pleasantly baffling when you first encounter it.

A nice climb. I don't know about 10, though. Maybe that's because there's a solid stance and a bolt waiting for you after each move. But, I was lulled into a casual state of mind to be startled awake when I got to the last move. Where did the bomber hands and feet go? You mean I'm actually going to have to think now! :)

As for whether or not the first bolt is needed...I've climbed a lot of routes with the first bolt as high up as the second bolt on this climb and there's a pretty good slab to stand on and clip the second bolt. So, yeah, it's high but it's pretty safe w/o the first bolt.

Crux move: everyone in my party moved to the right of the bolt. I think that move might go at 5.10. I found to the left and on the arete proper to go at maybe 10 also but more fun because you are on the arete! Either way both moves are fun, but like others say easier climbing to the one move make it more like 5.9.

This is a really fun route. I would say it's either a really hard 9 or a really easy 10. I had a blast. I completed the crux on the left hand side of the arete. I pushed of the foot hold with my right foot and used my left on the wall for balance until I hit the jug.

Good line, but it's really just a one move crux at the top of the wall. I thought 5.9-9+ was about right. Not a 5.10 I don't think. Still grades aside... a good line worth doing for sure.

Very fun, quick crux - easy if you're tall. We didn't see ivy at the base of the slab - which is a fun start, but a little insecure w/o any bolts until you can stand and get the second one. Great route for beginning leaders - keep that first bolt on for them.

Nice feature, one move wonder before the anchors. Do those who say it's a 5.9 think that the last move goes at that ? I don't.

This route is 5.8 until the last move to the anchor ledge. There's a good right hand crimper and a little knob for a right foot. It's balancy but fun.

Fun route! I'm thinking more in he 9 range tho. Crimp it and rip it!
