● Dead Dog
May 3, 2026 · Lead / Redpoint. re-sent/RP hanging draws with Lyle belaying. Been on this a few times on previous trips but apparently never logged it (sent it years ago pre-covid but not 1st go). Holds are good enough but some are definitely worse than others. Took video (~8min gnd to anchors). Not as pumpy-feeling with the fitness I have now. Great, quality route!

● Carhartts Recommended
May 3, 2026 · Lead / Redpoint. w/ Lyle, Roo Roo, Kriston, Maisy. Re-sent. Led hanging draws to set up TR for crew. I do love me some chimneying and popping out at the top is fun. Left wrist felt okay-ish pressing but had to be mindful angle I was pressing.

● Brick Attack
May 2, 2026 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Gingerly testing LH wrist on slab (mellow but still thoughtful approach to roof). Clipped 1st roof draw and attempted static beta reaching RH to ticked jug rail using LH sidepull/undercling and RF tippytoed at base of roof. Shy by about 3-4" at 5' 6" height, 0" ape index and fell. Checked and confirmed that arm span is too short to maintain when reach RH jug rail (face in the wall) and RF also too far to prevent cutting. Next time when left wrist is 100%: Try RH undercling, LH sidepull, RF toe in at base of roof, LF heel hook rail, push off RF and pop RH up to jug rail dynamically giving up both RF and LH, but trying to maintain LF heel hook. Fom dead hang on jug rail, climbed clean and felt relatively mellow to anchors following chalk/tickmarks (commit to big moves on good holds). LF high left side for clipping 2nd roof perma then LH side pull, RH jug. Used Evolv Phantom Pros.

● Lips and Assholes
May 2, 2026 · Lead / Redpoint. w/ Lyle, Maisy, Kriston, Roo Roo. Led on pre-hung draws feeling out left wrist which was fine even with a brief slowly loaded gaston at crux. Feels like 10c with decent beta. Wish it were longer.
