Nov 27, 2018 Southern Nevada > Red Rocks > Juniper Canyon > Ginger Buttress Unimpeachable Groping 5.10b ● Great route! A bit of rappelling info for those with a long rope - an 80m rope would get you down the route… View Comment

May 13, 2012 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Big Cottonwood… > Storm Mtn Picnic Area Psychobabble Wall ● Sun exposure is very dependent on the time of year. It's always sunny in the middle of the day. Right now i… View Comment

Dec 30, 2008 Southern Nevada > Red Rocks > Oak Creek Canyon > Eagle Wall Eagle Dance 5.10c A0+ ● The actual bolt hole seemed to be wearing out, due to the soft rock, so I'm not sure it can be tightened. I… View Comment
Oct 30, 2008 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Little Cottonwo… > Green Adjective Gully After The Fall 5.9 ● Great route! Watch the rope drag, there are options for gear, but hand size pieces go in nearly everywhere,… View Comment

Oct 28, 2008 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Big Cottonwood… > Challenge Buttress > N & W Faces Winky and Waxman Go Bolting 5.10d V2 ● yeah, I couldn't believe the block is gone, the hole where it was is a big hold now, so it didn't seem any… View Comment
Oct 15, 2008 Southern Nevada > Red Rocks > Oak Creek Canyon > Eagle Wall Eagle Dance 5.10c A0+ ● I did this route on Sunday, a few comments. The first .10c crux is straightforward face climbing. The bolt… View Comment
Sep 26, 2008 Southeast Utah > Castle Valley > Castleton Tower North Chimney 5.9 ● A great route, definitely physical for 5.8. In contrast to the above poster's comment, our 70m rope came up… View Comment
Sep 22, 2008 Wasatch Range > Southern Wasatch > American Fork C… > Hard Rock Suicide Blonde 5.11b ● I think it's correct at .11b. The start has a crappy foot or two, but this is AF after all. Uninspiring bla… View Comment
Aug 22, 2008 Wasatch Range > Wasatch Alpine… > Mt Superior / Monte C… South Ridge Easy 5th ● I definitely recommend this route. It's a great exposed ridge scramble that keeps going for 3,000 vert, def… View Comment
Jun 9, 2008 S Idaho > City of Rocks > Parking Lot Rock > Parking Lot Rock - No… Cairo 5.11a ● I found the crux to be after the 4th bolt, am I missing something up there? Very interesting climbing. View Comment
Jun 9, 2008 S Idaho > City of Rocks > Transformer Corridor Dirty Boulevard 5.9+ ● Bolts are pretty spaced out, you can barely lower off with a 70m rope. View Comment
May 31, 2008 Central Idaho > Sawtooth Range > Elephant's Perch Myopia 5.11b ● I took the biggest whipper of my life on this thing last summer. I found all of the 5.10 pitches to be very… View Comment
Nov 14, 2007 Wasatch Range > Southern Wasatch > American Fork C… > Division Wall Pocket Change 5.11a ● Hah, I remember this one! What a bizarre finish. I honestly didn't think I was going to get to the top. A t… View Comment
Oct 15, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Little Cottonwo… > Green Adjective Gully Unreliable 5.12 ● wow, this seemed really hard, I couldn't even do a bunch of the moves on it. The fixed nut is still there. View Comment
Oct 10, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Big Cottonwood… > Storm Mtn Picni… > Storm Mtn Island Generation Gap 5.12b ● Yeah maybe I'm being premature. A friend of mine just mentioned that he thought it was really soft, more li… View Comment
Oct 10, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Big Cottonwood… > Storm Mtn Picni… > Storm Mtn Island Generation Gap 5.12b ● How hard do you guys think this is? It seems kind of soft at .12b, especially compared to Big in Japan. I a… View Comment
Oct 4, 2007 Southern Nevada > Red Rocks > Black Velvet Ca… > Monument Desert Gold 5.13a PG13 ● Just out of curiosity, is there a way to approach Desert Reality without doing the .12d pitch? View Comment
Sep 27, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Little Cottonwo… > Green Adjective Gully All Chalk And No Action 5.12a ● Woohoo, my first .12. Great vertical climbing. The bolts are kind of manky for such a classic route. People… View Comment

Sep 12, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Ferguson Canyon > Watchtower > Watchtower Tiers Total Ramon 5.11c PG13 ● I guess if you want to be picky about it, this route is really X rated. It's moderate at the top, but you'r… View Comment
Sep 6, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Little Cottonwo… > Green Adjective Gully Gordon's Direct 5.11b R ● Wow, great route. Airy exposure as you're working the thin locks with 140' or so of rope out beneath you. C… View Comment
Sep 3, 2007 Lander Area > Wild Iris > Erratic Medicine Man 5.11c ● Really good. 6 bolts actually. Leave the biner that's on the anchor. View Comment

Jul 14, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Little Cottonwo… > Hellgate Cliffs > Tower One Medussa 5.11b/c ● Really good. Use runners on bolts 4 and 6 to reduce drag. The .75 camalot is nice to have. The top is wild! View Comment
Jul 10, 2007 N America > … > British Columbia > Squamish > Stawamus Chief > Grand Wall Area The Grand Wall 5.11a A0 ● Wow. So, so good. Starting off the ledge on mercy me keeps you a little fresher for the crux pitches, apron… View Comment

Jun 26, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Lone Peak Cirque > Summit Wall Vertical Smile 5.10a ● Wow. The stemming crux is wild, sustained, and committing. It's funny that the triple overhang crux is supp… View Comment
Jun 17, 2007 Wasatch Range > Central Wasatch > Little Cottonwo… > Hellgate Cliffs > Tower Two Social Realism 5.10a ● the book has social realism on the left, I'm pretty sure. Pretty hard for .10a limestone, but a good route.… View Comment
