Boschido
Nov 11, 2025 · Lead / Fell/Hung. 3 takes, and some detouring onto the 5.9 crack to the left. Gotta work on this one. The spot that was hardest for me was midway-ish, where a replaced-bolt is right next to chopped bolt shaft. There, gotta lean right, and commit to getting feet up into the high horizontal crack, then go for things. Gotta work on my willingness to fall, so that I’m more willing to try pulling moves that feel insecure. 14 clips. Top anchor chains held on by lap-links that are a bit open. Does have nice lower-off carabiners though!

Hakuna Matata
Nov 11, 2025 · Lead / Redpoint. Woah, I got it clean!! Major struggle, I kept being pumped, barely getting clips, wanting to call for a take, but opted to do “one more move…” so many times. Kept going, and amazingly got to the chains without actually weighting the rope. Amazing! It’s a great route!!

Sunshine Buttress
Nov 11, 2025 · Lead / Flash. 15 clips. Extended-reach draw wasn’t necessary, but was a nice-to-have for the last bolt. The move at the last bolt was the only one I really struggled with. Did use the crack to the left for a touch or two.

Jam Exam
Nov 8, 2025 · Lead / Flash. Clean lead, even though at the end of the day and I'm a bit tired. Good jams, but also didn't feel like a gimme. Happy to have three #3's (don't spend them all too early.) Triples or doubles down to #0.5 (crack narrows quite a bit for the second half,) maybe throw in singles down to #0.3 (optionally useful for protecting the start before the real crack begins.)
