Pretty Woman
Apr 7, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Terrible showing on this. Lots of bolt to bolt climbing. Ice and water in route required the chipping out of a bolt. Below the slabby crux make sure to do the slightly hard moves so you come up right and directly under the bolt on the slab. Otherwise you have to do a sketchy dow angling traverse.

Vixen
Apr 7, 2024 · TR. Terrible showing for me today. Afraid to climb above bolts and climbing poorly. It’s still be zapped from Silverton.

Positively Fourth Street
Mar 24, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Gave this another go with Brian today. Moved faced and spaced out gear and made it up to where the 5.9 traverse left starts before sitting on a 0.5. First cam in was a 1 and then .3,.4,.5 after this. It would be nice to have triples in all these sizes but not to was time doubling them up and placing a bunch. TRd the direct 10a afterwards. This should go eventually just have to be bold enough to risk the fall. Very safe. I struggled to get a 0.3 in after the high point .5. It may be best to save the 0.3 totem for the highest cam then go for the top. Good holds out on the arete on the right.
