Everest 201

this is pretty dang fun. The crux can be done with cranking through some crimps or with a cool, funky thumb-catch in a pocket. Dec 19, 2009

More of the same if you do More Obsessive Tendencies first - since they share the upper crux. There is a nice big move on jugs on the lower part from bolt 2-3. Otherwise its smooth going till the crux above the old bolt placements. The upper crux is just a good ol time. Feb 1, 2010

Very clean route, no choss, no dust. Loved moving into and through the crimps. Moving from the second to third bolt was the lower mental crux for me (being a bit shorter), but with the right beta it was fantastic. Upper crux is moving off the horn into the thumb catch/mono pocket and onto some fun crimps before a big move to a ledge. Loved the climb! Jun 9, 2015

Awesome, awesome route. My first .12a, so I could just be stoked on that. I really enjoyed the movement on this though: it has such great sequences that really make you commit, and there's not a bad foothold on the route. To have such high-quality rock on this side of the canyon is a bit of a treat. Between Simple Simon and this, I'm beginning to think Super Bowl is the anomaly of lower RC. Mar 23, 2018
