I know, I know, crack difficulty varies by hand size, but the I am curious nonetheless: the easier cracks at the Momentum in Sandy have plates that listed their grades once upon a time, but have long since worn away. Anyone know what they were? On the somewhat thinner hand crack on the wall that faces the front I think I can make out 5.11, but the hand/fist cracks around either corner from that one are totally illegible. Anyone know or want to guess at their grades? 5.10something?
The thin hands crack facing the front desk is 5.11. To the right, there are two .10- hand cracks and another 5.11 thin hands in the corner. To the left there is a 5.10 big hands crack, and a .10+ fist crack, which is actually harder than any of the 11s.

I've wondered about this for a while... what would the consensus be if these cracks were outside? My votes: 10+ corner, 5.8, 5.8 hand cracks facing the windows, 5.10+ thin hands facing the front, 5.10+ right wide crack, 5.11 left wide crack. Then maybe 5.11 "changing corners" crack immediately to the left of the chimney. The others I can't do, except the lead overhanging crack switch route, which I'd give 5.11 also. I have small hands so my favorite is the thin hands crack.

Sandy has a heinous overhanging offwidth, that must be what they're referring to.
