● CU on Top
May 25, 2025 · 1 pitch. We wanted to do this climb but decided against it after looking at it from the parking lot. A few notes for next time we come back - the climb itself looks good and fun. The descent is what turned us away. It looks like a long walk off. I wouldn't be surprised if the walk off would take longer than the climb. Also we couldn't see a clear walk off path without getting cliffed out, thing would probably look more doable up close. In terms of other desecnt options i think reppeling is the move. However the mountain project notes say the repell is tricky and I would want to come back fresh / ready for a full day adventure and with two 60M ropes + some bail gear. Also this route is in the Sun, we though the area would be more shaded. It looks like the route is in the sun for at least the morning and afternoon.

● Cow Lick Co. Crag
May 25, 2025 · TR. After only making it halfway up the route, Matt went up and led the rest of it. Once he came down, I top roped it successfully. Foot holds can be tricky. You have to smear / use small features and trust the gripy sand stone. I found it help fult to start right, move left and then back right until you get just under the bottom corner of the roof. Then step over and climb to the anchors.

● Physical Graffiti
May 24, 2025 · Follow. Matt lead pitch 1. We grouped with Adam, who was going to rope solo the route and made a party of 3 for the second pitch. Pitch 1 was a bit hard but doable - face climbing in an awkward corner. Pitch 2 was tough. I am glad I didn't have to lead it. There are sustained sections of crack climbing. Maybe if I was a better crack climber, it would have been easier. We did the 4th class scramble to the summit with some exposed sections and hike down a gully back to the base of the climb. The climb was in the shade after around 3 pm which was nice. The approach to the base of a climb was bit of a scramble. It took Matt and I about 1 hour 15 min from the car to the base of the climb.
