Ménage à Trois
Feb 17, 2026 · Lead / Pinkpoint. 3 beta burns, 3 attempts, in 3 days (or 2 days = 1 full day, 2 half days). i think this would be soo hard to onsight, so much beta to decipher and body positioning, and on the ramp nuanced ways to hold the intermediates (if you use them). i never came down from the route and said "that's a good route", but that's probably cuz i'm more a sport climber than a boulderer. i think i came down and always questioned "is that even a good route? how did it get so many stars?". but i knew i cant just talk trash and not send it. so i sent it and came down and still can't say its that cool, at least compared to all the epic lines nextdoor, especially with the route being mainly the last 3 bolts. to note at bolt 3 i climbed a little to the right but avoided the huge standup-flake, which is somewhat hard but there's a huge rest above to get it all back. for me this is not classic or great compared to the neighboring routes, so i'll mark it as "good" ie 2 stars, i know, i'm such a hater lol. it's not a route i was excited to tie into, whereas hijo was. it's more the route "i just wanna get this done so i can move on". 12c as of today 2/17/26. sun situation for february 17th, shade until 925am (sun hits anchors at 925am), shade again 1050-1120am.

Hijo de Puta
Feb 15, 2026 · Lead / Pinkpoint. Yesterday 1 beta burn then 1 fall at crux attempt. Today 1 beta burn warmup then pinkpoint. Incredible route. Good morning “damp” conditions that my dry hands love. Lots of ok/tough rests if your into rests. Glad it’s done but would be happy to get back on it in the future! doesn't look pumpy but it is, good holds except a crimp at the crux, arguably no hard individual move on this route but such sustained goodness, including to the chains. at the crux i use a right heel hook UNDER the right hand good tufa pinch, whereas some heel hook OVER the hand, or taller ppl skip the heel hook altogether.

Tour de Pump
Dec 1, 2025 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Pumped after Steep Thrills onsight. So fun so gotta get back on it! 1b2b warmup w Scott full pre laser spray. Then 1 fell attempt latching but too weak to hold onto the final headwall rail. See my beta video on phone. Beta: after r heel hook midway rest, LH to obvious high down crimp edge, key R lateral edge heel hook, rock onto it and RH to side pull, key foot swap kinda spooky LF toenails DOWN then RF detach, then LH down pull bad slopish edge, RF toe on ok foot, LF detach and scum roof to quickly rock back and punch forward to RH headwall rail

Steep Thrills
Dec 1, 2025 · Lead / Onsight. Cool. Onsight! Jeremy put draws up before which was clutch. I belayed J before but didn’t watch (inverted belay goggles) and turns out I used lots of different beta also. Steep pumpy oh so good. Decent rests every so often. Saw a guy after do a no hands knee bar at the first biggest rest which I never found. 12a as of today. So fun.

The Max Flex
Nov 30, 2025 · Lead / Fell/Hung. 1b2b then 1 failed attempt going for the rest crimp match rail. Turns out to be a really great route w great movement once I could get over the sandbagged grade. I’m guessing it’s more 12b/c because other 12b’s took 2 attempts (Prophet, Keep Your Powder Dry), and this will take 3 or more. Also flashed Green Eagle next door and onsighted Steep Thrills both 12a. Will come back for the send.

Green Eagle
Nov 30, 2025 · Lead / Flash. Flash with Kathy pre laser full spray and watched her and Steve before. Kathy made it look easier than it was. Great route flow sustained.
