When I try a 10a,could take me all day.I get pumped off the bump n' hit the floor tryin to pull that dang figure four.Gotta take,when I hit that flake,cause holdin that next slope,for me is a big nope!I be yellin like Alex honnald and flailin like old McDonald,I mean I guess it's some gneiss schist,but I just cant jam my fist.Think you can climb like me,first you gotta rhyme like me,My beta's so bad,it's really quite sad,i make a 5.10b,look like a 12d!But dats cause you see,nobody climbs like me

Campfire
Aug 30, 2026 · Lead / Flash. w/tin, kevin, regina. in the rain. Tin put it up. I tall-boyed my way paste low crux. Didn't love how the natural line seems to go way left around roof at not crux "curx" near top. Otherwise long and pleasant.

Doc's Holiday

Aug 30, 2026 · Lead / Flash. w/kevin (who led first), tin (who pink-pointed), regina & Wendy (both TR'd), and Rovin (tried a little) and Juni (who watched and cheered us on, and napped and snacked). nice very protectable crack with lots of stances!

31. La fissure
Aug 30, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. w/stacy, rocky, juni and wifey. Probably my fav route we did here, nice sustained crack climbing broken up by pretty good rest stances, various crack sizes, nice secret hold for the top out (chipped?). Bolts rather spaces than I would have liked, having some supplemental gear would have made me happy, but seems pretty safe regardless just scary.
