Spice Box
Feb 17, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Fun route with some friable rock in hard sections. I thought it was a solid 10.

Chimera
Feb 17, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Fun climb. The rock really deteriorates at the top. I took off a large piece. Grade about right. Shanagans to rappel down with a 70

Unintentional Show-off
Feb 17, 2026 · Solo. I hiked in and rope soloed this one. A fun day with the horses in the river, but the crux has terrible rock. Evidence of breakage and repair. I think it's now about 11a. Wouldn't take much effort to turn it into 5.9 again

Modern Guilt
Sep 26, 2025 · Lead / Fell/Hung. We initially tried to do the first few pitches of pressure sensitive to approach the crux pitch. We did the first two pitches and bailed. Once was enough. There were no bolts on the 5.9 section. My lead, vibrant memories . Later, I got to meet Eddie Joe. I don't think he remembered the route. However, his is the apocryphal tale of using oil to get out of an OW. He went back 30 years later and retrieved the empty bottle.

Oct 9, 2024 · Lead / Onsight. I did this for about the 6th time. As always, at the shattered rock I traversed left, belayed, and then climbed left around the corner of the spire, straight up a short 5.8 face, and then up a short overhanging hand crack and face to the top. The blocks comprising the hand crack have moved and are dangerous.
