Voodoo Chile
Sep 2, 2025 · Lead / Redpoint. Lots of cleaning to bring this one back to life. Scraped off 30+ years of accumulated crust, cobwebs and ball-bearing lichen to make climbable again. Left some cord and biners at the top to facilitate a clean escape. Last climbing day before surgery and a prolonged break from physical activity ; (

Silhouette
Dec 6, 2023 · Lead / Onsight. Anchor position is a mess for lowering; the mussy hooks invite lowering. Belay your partner up.

Dec 6, 2023 · Lead / Onsight. A big stack of choss, but I guess it was worth climbing once :)

Mighty Mouse
May 12, 2023 · Lead / Redpoint. Sent dozens of times over the years, but this is the first lead redpoint in my 50s and post hernia surgery. Lovely climb.

Pillar Assault
May 5, 2022 · Solo. Roped solo cautionary tale: foothold blew as I was climbing just past the 3rd bolt, resulting in a surprise whip. Now I got a stinging rope burn.
