5.11c 6c+ 24 VIII- 24 E4 6a 21 ● 20 Years Aug 2, 2026 · TR. Broke two holds - one was probably not used but the other was the better side of a probably critical hole near the top. Sport Willamette Valley > Eagles Rest > (F) Bomb Shelter
5.10d 6b+ 21 VII+ 21 E3 5b 45 ● Somewhere in Middle America Aug 2, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Draws were up. Hoods are very directional. Sport Willamette Valley > Eagles Rest > (C) Dream Wall
5.12a 7a+ 25 VIII+ 25 E5 6a 27 ● Livin' a Dream Aug 2, 2026 · TR. Clean but uncertain. Sport Willamette Valley > Eagles Rest > (C) Dream Wall
5.12a 7a+ 25 VIII+ 25 E5 6a 27 ● Livin' a Dream Aug 2, 2026 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Got tangled up before clipping the perma; missed a crimpy hold up right that helped a lot. Also took after the fifth bolt because I was questioning left vs. right vs. straight up; none of it is that bad though. Sport Willamette Valley > Eagles Rest > (C) Dream Wall
5.10c 6b 20 VII 20 E2 5b 56 ● Requiem for a Dream Aug 2, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Led 1 and 3-4. The last two pitches are junk pitches and only worth doing if you’ve never gone above the tree line before. The second pitch seemed significantly easier than the first; I’d put it around 10a. A lot of the bolting on this route is wonky. There’s a series of three bolts on the first pitch where the hangers are recessed to the point that normal length quick draws create drag and the rope would hit the edge funny if you whipped. Alpines recommended. Sport 4 pitches Willamette Valley > Eagles Rest > (C) Dream Wall
5.11c 6c+ 24 VIII- 24 E4 6a 29 ● Kinetica Aug 1, 2026 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Bailed at the perma. This got really in my head and I just wasn’t having fun. Sport Willamette Valley > Eagles Rest > (J) Old Growth Wall
