Working Class Hero
Apr 14, 2024 · Lead / Pinkpoint. w/ Kyle Daly. Great crack, but did feel stiff for 5.9 because I think the size was a bit baggy for my fingers. Great smears and good fun though.

Baby Blue
Apr 14, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. W/ Kyle Daly on belay. Great climb. Fell at the last tips while I had gear placed but couldn’t clip. Bring 4 .3s next time. Maybe a #3 instead of a #2 for the 2nd pod. Bring the #2 for the first pod. Fell on a .5 above the pod. Need to push through the tips.

North Chimney
Apr 13, 2024 · 3 pitches. Lead / Onsight. W/ Kyle Daly. Kyle led pitches 1 and linked 3/4. I led pitch 2. 5 was all you need. Good off-width arm bars with slabby feet, felt natural. Lots of fixed gear stuck on route, particularly 3 pretty new wild countries — bring a hammer next time to unstick some of it. Killer route and day — would definitely do it again. Rapped the north face in 4.

Apr 7, 2024 · Follow. w/ John Zornosa. Had John lead all the pitches so he got some experience in multi-pitch. Great, quick few pitches + rapp.
