| This classic stemming problem has no real crux, just continuously difficult movement that makes it a blast to climb and will leave a smile on your face. |

| This is some crazy fun stuff. Expect a little thrill reaching the fourth bolt - just far enough above the last bolt to get your attention. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face after leading this.... |

| I took a nice fall on the 3rd bolt; Andy is right about a nice little gap with a couple of no-turning-back moves before the 4th.
Stellar route! |

| This is the most fun 11A ever in my book. I couldn't believe how wicked the whole thing was all the way to the anchors, it was such a welcome departure from face climbs in other areas. What a great route. |
